I saw a lot of articles on the Internet, the title was very loud, what "ERP encounters winter", "ERP is outdated", "RTE will replace ERP", etc. At that time, I wanted to write some text, but I can't get a pen. Although I also put a special water on some ERP forums, but I'm not addictive, so I insisted on writing a hundred words every day, I hope that I can have "intimate contact" IT people in this day. share it. The road to China's ERP is far away, only learning, can wear. Chinese people have a lot of advantages, like smart, diligence, hard work ... I will not talk to this. As a Chinese, I think we should learn to learn and think, and it is "not impetuous". In fact, there is a very flat synonym, which is "practical". As a person who writes code, 9CBS is where I often go. There, in addition to the discussion topic of programming skills and methods, you can often see programming tools: learned VB people can't afford PB, learn Delphi can't afford to learn VB, learn VC to see Delphi ... This may be related to the average income of different types of programmers, but it also reflects everyone's impetuousness. The language is actually good and bad, energy efficient, rapidly solving the problem, ensuring that the system's health and scalability are good. In fact, how much is the success or failure of software? What languages do you use? It is not careful if the demand research is meticulous, whether the software architecture is reasonable, whether the programming quality is excellent, whether the program test is strict, whether the user training is in place, whether there is a "one hand" support, etc. I have learned some companies, and some have been launched by ERP software, but they still have some software they develop in operation. It is already a J2EE era, but those who may be developed by FoxPro have strong vitality and cannot be replaced. why? Because they are closer to the needs of the company, they can solve the problem of enterprises in a certain point, and can be supplemented by ERP software. The above example shows that the soul of the software is whether the software has "thinking", the software is not a code of the code, but the manifestation of management ideas. ERP, is the abbreviation of English "Enterprise Resourse Planning", from MIS, MRP, MRPII all the way, from the theoretical system is very perfect. For MRP, ERP research, China has always been close to international development, "863" is not low to ERP. It can be said that the theoretical research level of domestic ERP is higher, but China's ERP products? I think that China has no true ERP software now. The so-called ERP software that appears like a spring in the rain in recent years, most of them can only call MIS. I know a professor of a university, leading a few high-level sweat, actually got a "ERP" system of a packaging factory, I don't say it, you must also guess it. Domestic image friends, Kingdee's ERP software is a successful, and their success is mainly due to the familiarity and localization advantages of China's financial system. But because most of the predecessors are pure financial software, domestic ERP software is relatively poor in need of procurement, material management, quality control, cost control, production plan. In terms of stability, configurability, and interface and extension of CRM, PDM systems, domestic ERP and foreign ERP flagship products represented by SAP, Oracle have a great gap. The success of foreign ERP software is more than just software companies, but more importantly, they have many successful customers. SAP represents the advanced management idea of European companies, Oracle represents the advanced management of US companies, and there are many world-sex companies in these two regions.
ERP manufacturers are also constantly improved and learning in promoting software, and it can be said that ERP has achieved success while helping customers succeed. There are some remarks recently that ERP has been outdated, and RTE (Real Time Enterprise real-time business) will be replaced. I didn't study RTE, but I feel that I have added some advanced applications on the basis of ERP. The software may be too time, but management thinking is some eternal law, ERP is the centralized reflection of these management ideas. Since we explore the ERP, we didn't reach the ultimate. Since we didn't even make the world, why did you say that ERP is over? ERP has developed to today, which has always been inherited and expanded, rather than discarding MRP, MRPII. RTE may be very advanced idea, which may be in full swing in the future, but I always believe that if ERP is not doing well, RTE must be done well, and even the ERP can't implement, RTE will not success. Therefore, we must be careful "ERP Out of Time", do not engage in "big leap forward" in China's information construction, do not impetuous, study ERP, learn ERP, and make ERPs suitable for Chinese companies. While building a world-class Chinese enterprise, China ERP will also develop growth. China's corporate management concept is recognized by the world. It is believed to be China ERP software and SAP, Oracle's one day. ERP is a classic, classic things never time! I am not superstitious, especially for a programmer. No matter which master's book, no matter which master wrote algorithm, I don't believe it. After trying, I found that Master will even make mistakes. ERP is an advanced management idea, not only in software represented by SAP, Oracle, but also has a good proof in the world. I don't need to say this, see how much the world is SAP, Oracle customers can know that I have no bragging. My company also implemented SAP, although the SAP's BUG is very small, but it will still find some unreasonable places. But this is not the error of ERP, and can only say that SAP's ERP software is not perfect. ERP is a kind of management idea, and thousands of outstanding companies have proven to be repeated, this is "classic". Classic is not too time, will "Moon Sonata" will time? Will Okimin's "Swan Lake" will time? Wade's "cat" will time? Hepburn's "Rome Holiday" will time? will not! why? Because it is a classic. ERP is also a classic, which can be inherited and carried forward, but it won't obey. If a new concept is launched on the basis of ERP, it is considered that ERP is over, that can only say that it is a tactics of ERP software. Don't believe in the world's ideas in this world, and realize new methods of enterprise informationization. If you don't understand the ERP, you can't implement it, how can you implement CRM, PDM, RTE or other new things? Let's hand over the model and the study to the Software Business Man and Research Institute, as a corporate information personnel, what we have to do is doing the ERP, and the foundation of enterprise informationization. ERP is over-time, there is a harm without anything. ERP still has a large development space, and domestic ERP software still has a chance. Now the domestic ERP market, SAP, Oracle and other foreign giants still account for absolute advantages. This advantage is not only manifested in the number of customers. More importantly, their customers are ranking in front of the country, very influential enterprises. . Domestic ERP products, customer sources are mainly concentrated in some SMEs.
In fact, this is very good. Many small and medium-sized enterprises have a good rise. In the next 10 years, they will inevitably have a group of high-speed growth in China, become an influential enterprise in China, and even in the world. Domestic ERP can seize the opportunity, grow with customers, believe that China's ERP software will also have quality leap. What need to be seen is that foreign large ERP manufacturers such as SAP is also adjusting in China's strategy, and mysap.com's proposal is a solution for SMEs. How to deal with China ERP vendors? Is it to promote "ERP has been outdated" theory, or understand the deficiencies, strive to make ERP to deepen, do more close to users? I think that the fry concept can only get a time, "network bubble" is not shattered? When thousands of online banks are under bankruptcy, companies such as IBM, Sun, BEA, Cisco, have achieved great development. Domestic ERP software and the world advanced level gap are still more obvious, mainly in the following aspects: 1. The software has poor configurability, the overall architecture is unreasonable, BUG is more, there is no secondary development platform. Take SAP as an example, its IMG configuration function is quite powerful, and the permission management is flexible, and the connections between each module are tight. When we implement SAP, our company encounters a lot of problems, but never doubts that SAP software has problems, and then proves that it is unreasonable. In this regard, domestic ERP is worse. When customization, the configuration selection is too small, often needs to change the standard program. Moreover, the domestic ERP software has almost no built-in development platform. Although most of the interfaces can be carried out in the outside, it is often a hidden danger that causes failure or poor effect. SAP has built-in ABAP / 4 development platform, separate from development language, ABAP / 4 is not advanced, no IDE (visual development interface), no control, function function is also very weak. But it is because there is a built-in development platform that makes up for many shortcomings of SAP software itself. To say the question, the vast majority of SAP itself is also written in ABAP / 4, and is explained (which certainly writes the execution layer written by C below). People who have a programming knowledge know that now development languages have almost eliminated explanation. SAP has completed the construction of the ERP Empire for decades, and now it seems to be indestructible. Domestic ERP vendors are too important to the choice of development platform, such as Java, C #, etc., very followed by the trend. But it seems that the energy of the true flower in the design of ERP and software framework seems not enough. Also, although the SAP program is interpreted, it is a three-layer frame, which can be run on a variety of platforms such as UNIX, Linux, NT, supporting multiple databases such as DB2, Oracle, SQL-Server. Most of the domestic ERP software can only run on Microsoft's NT platform, which is far from demanding for large businesses. 2. If the pre-sales service does not keep up, the consultant's strength is too weak. Domestic ERP manufacturers now stay on the product, should change the concept, selling ERP software, not only selling products, but also selling services. SAP is very amazing in global partners, consulting companies, and training institutions, and 29 consulting partners accredited in China, SAP, 8 technical partners, 4 assistant software partners, hosted partners Three, there are still many consulting companies that are not on the official list of SAP, but also in SAP products, SAP-related technologies and professional forums are also a lot.
