Purpose This paper aims to propose a theoretical extension of the information system success model (ISSM) to evaluate enterprise resource planning (ERP) success at an organizational level in Jordan. It explores whether information quality, system quality and service quality have a positive impact on both perceived usefulness and user satisfaction as antecedents of organizational impact. Design/methodology/approach A questionnaire was undertaken to gather data from chief information officers among Jordanian firms, with a total of 134 valid returns tested via partial least squares structural equation modeling. Findings The results showed that most of the research hypotheses proposed are empirically supported, with the exception of the influence of service quality on user satisfaction which was extremely low. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the first empirical work that measured ERP success from an organizational perspective in Jordan. It also provides insight into how the factor of perceived usefulness is incorporated into ISSM in the mandatory system case and its influences on organizational benefits.

PurposeThis study's purpose is to propose a hybrid model based on expectation-confirmation model (ECM) and technology acceptance model (TAM) to examine whether organizational users' perceived task-technology fit (TTF) in cloud enterprise resource planning (ERP) as an antecedent to user beliefs can directly and indirectly affect their continuance intention of cloud ERP and individual performance.Design/methodology/approachSample data for this study were collected from end users of cloud ERP working in companies in Taiwan. A total of 500 questionnaires were distributed in the 50 sample companies, and 355 (71.0%) usable questionnaires were analyzed using structural equation modeling in this study.FindingsThis study showed that organizational users' perceived TTF contributed positively to their perceived usefulness, confirmation and perceived ease of use of cloud ERP, which in turn directly and indirectly led to their satisfaction with cloud ERP, continuance intention of cloud ERP and individual performance; that is, this study's findings strongly supported the research model integrating ECM, TAM and TTF model with all hypothesized links being significant.Originality/valueThis study contributes to an understanding of the TTF model in explaining organizational users' cloud ERP continuance intention that is difficult to explain with only their utilitarian perceptions of cloud ERP. Further, it is especially worth mentioning that this study places considerably more emphasis upon organizational users' individual performance greatly driven by their perceived TTF in cloud ERP and continuance intention of cloud ERP. Thus, this study's empirical evidence on incorporating ECM, TAM and TTF model can significantly enhance better understanding of the outcomes for cloud ERP continuance intention and shed light on the possible formulation of a richer post-adoption model.

The aim of this study is to determine the impact of Enterprise Resource Planning System of human resources on the employees’ performance Appraisal in Jordan. It investigates the relationship between System Quality, Information Quality, Service Quality, User Satisfaction; and Performance Appraisal. The study was motivated because most of the literature about ERP systems in Jordan has focused on the success and failure factors of the ERP systems. Jordanian National Electric Power Company (NEPCO) was chosen to conduct the study because it has implemented a new electronic performance appraisal system based on the ERP system. Data were collected via questionnaires from 98 managers and department heads working at Jordanian National Electric Power Company (NEPCO). The results of this study revealed that there is a significant effect of System Quality, Information Quality and User Satisfaction of Enterprise Resource Planning System on Performance Appraisal, while Service Quality has no effect on Performance Appraisal. Therefore, the important recommendation is to improve the service quality of the system and to bring encouragement and confident to the users towards the success of the system.

Globally, governments are taking steps to help them increase their income generation margin by implementing tax administrative ERP systems. However, the impacts on the internal system users of these ERP system quality features have not drawn the attention needed. This study, therefore, examines the relationship between the information systems' (IS) quality and individual impact using the theoretical foundation of the DeLone and McLean IS success model and, secondly, addresses the interrelationships between the quality constructs of information systems (IS). The authors also used the structural equation modeling technique of partial least squares to evaluate and analyze the data. The results show that system quality, the information quality, and the service quality characteristics of the tax administrative ERP system have a strong positive impact on the success of the IS at the individual level. There is also a positive relationship between the information systems' (IS) quality construction. The results provide additional empirical observations and consequences for management.


This study aims to examine the level of real use and satisfaction of ERP users in banking companies in the West Sumatra region. The analysis was carried out by examining the effect of system quality, information quality and service quality on the level of real use and satisfaction of ERP users in banking companies in West Sumatra. Data acquisition was carried out by survey techniques through questionnaires to 140 employees from 4 government banks in West Sumatra (ERP users). A total of 89 data can be processed in this study. Multiple regression statistical tests are used to test hypotheses. Regression test results on model I indicate that there is no influence on the quality of information systems, information quality and service quality at the level of real use of Enterprise Resource Planning. While the test results in model II show that there is an influence of the quality of the information system, information quality and service quality on the satisfaction of users of Company Resource Planning.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore the key antecedents of organizational users’ continuance intention of cloud enterprise resource planning (ERP) by the integration of constructs from the expectation–confirmation model (ECM), technology acceptance model (TAM), theory of planned behavior (TPB), task-technology fit and TAM2. Design/methodology/approach Sample data for this study were collected from end users of cloud ERP working in companies in Taiwan. A total of 560 questionnaires were distributed in the 56 sample companies, and 395 (70.5 percent) usable questionnaires were analyzed using structural equation modeling in this study. Findings Findings show that while compatibility and output quality are key antecedents of confirmation of expectations toward cloud ERP, compatibility still reveals overwhelming and more indirect impacts on users’ continuance intention of cloud ERP than output quality because output quality has significant but evidently lesser effects on perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use than compatibility. Originality/value First, this study contributes to the identification of compatibility and output quality that may reveal deep insights to the task-related factors in understanding users’ cloud ERP continuance greatly driven by their confirmation of expectations toward cloud ERP. Next, the empirical evidence on capturing the ECM, TAM and TPB for completely explaining the antecedents of users’ continued cloud ERP usage intention is well documented. Hence, this study’s findings have significantly shed light on the possible formulation of a richer post-adoption model.

Purpose Enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems are complex and comprehensive software designed to integrate business processes and functions. Despite the difficulties and risk, the adoption of ERP systems is expanding rapidly. Universities make large investments in information systems and expect positive impacts. However, universities are facing serious challenges in implementing new technology. Therefore, this research aims to evaluate the impact of ERP systems on higher education (HE) from the perspective of stakeholders’ performance. Design/methodology/approach This research paper conducted a case study of an ERP system in a Saudi university to explore the impact of ERP system on the performance of the system’s stakeholders among the university’s employees. Findings The system quality factors (flexibility, compatibility, availability of right data, availability of currency, ease of use and timeliness) were found to affect performance positively, as were service quality factors (tangibility, reliability, responsiveness and assurance). This research further found that factors from pre-implementation, implementation and post-implementation phases had a direct effect on stakeholders’ performance. Research limitations/implications Future research would be useful during the maturity phase to include all stakeholders in several Saudi universities. In addition, more research can be beneficial to test the applicability of the impact of the ERP system on stakeholders’ performance in other public sector organisations and in the private sector. Practical implications The results suggest that organisations in general and HE institutions in particular should focus on the early stages and the implementation phase if they wish to achieve high standards of stakeholder performance. Originality/value This research makes a novel contribution by attempting to evaluate the impact of service quality on stakeholder performance in the ERP environment. The contribution uses service quality as a dimension consisting of four factors – reliability, assurance, tangibility and responsiveness. All four factors were found to be significant on ERP stakeholders’ performance.

BACKGROUND The nursing process information system (NPIS) is used to establish nursing process including assessment, diagnosis, planning, intervention, and evaluation in solving the health problems of patients. OBJECTIVE The factors influencing the use of the NPIS by nurses were analyzed based on user satisfaction and technology acceptance of 3Q (service quality, information quality, and system quality) model. METHODS In this cross-sectional quantitative research, 222 valid responses of nurses were recorded from eight hospitals affiliated with public organizations in Taiwan. Structural equation modeling was used to analyze information quality (IQ), system quality (SysQ), service quality (SQ), user satisfaction (US), perceived usefulness (PU), perceived ease of use (PEOU), perceived enjoyment (PE), behavioral attitude (BA), and intention after the nurses had used the NPIS system for over one month. RESULTS This research indicated that IQ, SQ, and SysQ influenced US. US affected PU, PEOU, and PE and had the highest explanatory power (R2 = 0.9). Furthermore, PU, PEOU, and PE influenced BA and the intention. Consequently, the proposed model explained 51% of the variance in the intentions of using the NPIS. CONCLUSIONS The relationships between the variables of the 3Q model were successfully used to examine the intention of nurses for using the NPIS. By using this research, designers and programmers can comprehensively understand the perceptions of nurses and further improve the performance of the NPIS.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to develop an evaluation model for National Judiciary Informatics System (NJIS), which is an e-justice system forming part of e-government, based on the models and the theories of information systems (ISs). Design/methodology/approach The survey was conducted on 8,840 internal users working for judicial services in Turkey. The success of the NJIS as an e-justice system is evaluated using structural equation modeling (SEM). Findings The results show that while the most important factor is the latent variable information quality in the SEM created to analyze the satisfaction of internal users using the NJIS, other factors include perceived usefulness (PU), system quality, and service quality, respectively. It is found that design quality has affected directly and positively the perceived ease of use (PEoU) while PEoU has affected the PU in the same manner. Research limitations/implications This study was solely concerned with internal users. Therefore, a more comparative study in which other users such as lawyers and ordinary citizens can be incorporated is suggested. Related to internal user satisfaction of the e-justice system, it is explored whether or not internal users are satisfied with their information processing needs, the system’s efficiency, the number of process steps, technical office services, and the system in general. Originality/value The research presents a new developed evaluation model of e-justice system from an internal user perspective. Most evaluation models focus on system-centered evaluation or organizational structure while user-centered evaluation concerning judicial ISs has not been explored yet.
