ERP und SCM

Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) and Supply Chain Management (SCM) are among the core tasks of an industrial company. They have evolved from production planning and control (PPC).

Today, a large part of the business, administrative and, in part, technical tasks of an industrial company are supported by ERP and SCM systems.

The book explains the conceptual foundations of the systems, shows how typical business processes are carried out with the help of practical systems (e.g. SAP ERP), and deals with current developments such as Industry 4.0. Production-related and technical application systems are placed with their interfaces around ERP and SCM.

In addition to the basics of ERP and SCM and the implementation of theoretical concepts in practical systems, the new edition deals with the latest developments in the field of Industry 4.0 and the Internet of Things.
