The idea behind Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) is simple - systems needed for company activities should be connected into a single large system.

The ERP systems consist of several different modules. The main tasks of those modules include the management of: finances, production, logistics and distribution, services, marketing, projects, human resources (staff and payroll), reporting, and document turnover.
Their configuration depends on the system acquirer who decides which types of activities he wants to support. The modular architecture of ERP allows the implementation of selected elements, rather than the whole system at the same time. ERP encompasses all production and distribution processes. It integrates all areas of company activities, facilitates flow of information important for its functioning and enables rapid response to changes in the demand. Information is updated in real time and made available at the time of taking the decision.
The SAP R/3 system consists of modules processing internal activities of companies of all types and sizes.
