LEARN TO FIND AND INSTALL AN ERP SYSTEM
· Understand what an ERP system could do for a small business

· See how your business might be improved by incorporating a comprehensive integrated system
ERP systems grew along with the development of the computer. As computers became more powerful and they could handle more data faster, integration of the various business processes like purchasing, manufacturing, warehousing and employee services became possible. As we review ERP, I’m sure you will be able to relate to the different functions from your work experience.
You will be exposed to the Open Source Software movement which requires that software in this genre be distributed free. Not only that but the source code is also distributed free and can be modified or enhanced and redistributed. Developers are reimbursed by creating add-on software plug ins, providing servers for the software to run on or integrating Open Source Software with other systems.
You won’t have to be a programmer or understand any code to benefit from this course. The installation you will do is almost a one-click process. Yet you will understand the system architecture at a high level. I’ll use screencasts to walk you through the download, installation and the tailoring of the Appcentic ERP system including simple bulk uploading of your products.
At the completion of the course you will understand how you can find Open Source Software in the future and take full advantage of it, and you’ll also have a working ERP system to use in a business.
