The general trend of knowledge management is the integration of OA and ERP or just make do

nowadays, new intelligent management systems with "knowledge management" as the core are becoming more and more popular, and OA, ERP, CRM and other systems are being introduced one after another. At the same time, many enterprises cannot help but face the fact that most of these systems act independently, often forming an information island, and cannot form an integration that does not affect the total number of experiments effect to help enterprises make more efficient management decisions, Therefore, the industry has been trying to explore: whether there are interface and integration problems between OA system and ERP system, and how to fully integrate and coordinate them, promote each other, so as to save resources and maximize the effectiveness of user units

for example, a large group has many subordinate enterprises, large regions, and miscellaneous distribution. What it hopes most is that a large ERP system can have OA function without buying another OA; For a small and medium-sized enterprise, ERP investment is huge and the construction cycle is long. It hopes to buy a good OA system. The OA system also has some ERP functions, which can meet some basic attendance, salary accounting and other data analysis, statistics, summary functions, without having to buy ERP

in an enterprise that has launched OA and ERP systems at the same time, zhengyueming, chairman and CEO of Lianhong new materials Co., Ltd., chairman of the alliance, said in an interview with reporters that in terms of the integration of loan reimbursement, it hopes to achieve the approval of the payment process through the OA system first, and then write the approved amount into the AP module of ERP to form the relevant invoice data, and then carry out the payment operation; Another example is the integration of attendance information. Enterprises also hope to realize the approval process of employee leave application through OA. After approval, the attendance information is directly written into the HR module in ERP for attendance statistics and salary calculation; Another example is the integration of employee performance appraisal. Enterprises also hope to approve employee appraisal documents through the OA system, and write the results into the personal information of the human resources performance appraisal module in ERP for refinement

similarly, realizing the integration of multiple products and giving products stronger functions are also important directions for the development of ERP technology. In Europe and the United States, after ERP unloading and repeated re calibration, the scope of management continues to expand, including all business operations of the enterprise itself, enterprise office business, collaborative business between enterprises, etc. In this way, OA is also integrated into ERP, bringing all businesses completed by enterprise managers in the office into its management scope, and realizing the management of most of the work and related environment of the enterprise

it is reported that this "ERP + OA" integration method has attracted the attention of CIOs of many international software giants, including Microsoft, IBM, sap, etc., and has been actively promoted. It has become a general trend to integrate the two major software of enterprise management and cooperate with OA and ERP. In the future, the enterprise management system will make great strides towards the integrated collaborative management platform, and closely integrate the business system through similar "portal technology", so as to unify the system interface, process, account and data, and make all kinds of information in OA, ERP and other systems Data can be effectively displayed in the management support system through the comprehensive portal to meet social challenges, so as to provide integrated services such as decision support, knowledge mining, business intelligence, etc

in a word, OA and ERP should be fully integrated, not improvised. We can't make "two differences" into "1+1 <2", which is not what the industry wants. (end)
