A prosperous company with a goal to maintain competitiveness in a strong international environment should eliminate obsolete management methods and innovate the information system used in the company with the application of effective economic software. This paper deals with the current situation of economic software or Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) in companies and opportunities and advantages of using software in the area of cost management. Economic gains in practice are also discussed in this contribution.

Cross-discipline research requires researchers to understand many concepts outside their own discipline. Computing has increased in our everyday lives to the point that “ubiquitous computing” has become an entry in the Wikipedia (Wikepedia). Research is no different. Researchers outside of computer networkrelated disciplines must account for the effects of network-based information systems on their research. This article presents a model to aid researchers with the tasks of properly identifying the elements and effects of a network-based information system within their studies. The complexity associated with network-based information systems may be seen by considering a study involving the effectiveness of an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system on a mid-sized company. A study becomes muddled when it fails to recognize the differences between the myriad of people, procedures, data, software, and hardware involved in the development, implementation, security, use, and support of an ERP system. If a researcher confuses network security with ERP configuration limitations, then two important aspects of the information system are obscured. Networks limit access to network resources so that only authorized users have access to their data. ERP applications allow an organization to restrict access to data to safeguard the data (Colt & Yang, 2004). Both aspects relate to the availability of data, but they come from different parts of the system. The two aspects should not be addressed as if both are attributable to the same source. Misidentifying network-based information system elements reflects negatively upon the legitimacy of an entire study.

Is Design

In the last decade a new generation of information systems (IS), such as enterprise resource planning, Web-based information systems and knowledge management support systems, have emerged in response to ever-changing organizational needs. As these systems are socio-technical phenomena in which social and technical factors interweave the ways in which people work, the issue of “how to integrate the work activity and social context of users into the IS which is being designed” becomes one of the principal problems of IS development (Bai et al., 1999). Therefore, the need for new information system design theories is recognized. According to Walls et al. (1992), an “IS design theory” must have two aspects—one dealing with the description of the system and one dealing with the prescription, that is, the process of developing of the system. The prescription aspect includes a description of procedures and guidelines for system development. In addition, these two aspects have to be grounded on theories from natural or social sciences, that is, kernel theories. Therefore, the development of new IS design theories requires a closer look at the system theories that go beyond the traditional system theory that is based, among other things, on Cartesian dualism, that is, mind/body or cognition/action, and on a model of cognition as the processing of representational information (Mingers, 2001). One of the candidate theories is the theory of autopoiesis, which can be best viewed as a system-grounded way of thinking with biological foundations, together with its extension into social domain.

In order to survive in today’s global competitive environment, businesses have to use information systems during management and production processes. Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) is developed by Davis (1989). According to this model, the use of a new information system depends on perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness variables. This study analyzes the factors that affect the use of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software, which is an information system, in the frame of TAM variables. 236 companies that use these information systems participated in the survey. It is determined that, eleven independent variables, which are taken into consideration in the scope of user characteristics, innovative characteristics, organizational and environmental characteristics factors, have statistically meaningful and positive effect on perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness which represent TAM parameters. Similarly, it is determined that, perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness have a positive and statistically meaningful effect on the use of ERP.

Modeling is one of the techniques used to describe how information systems will be created and produced. Modeling itself can be used as a reference in the process of developing information systems to suit user needs. One modeling technique that is often used is to use a unified modeling language (UML). Modeling techniques with UML are able to describe various features of information systems. for this reason, in this research a model for the PTPN VII enterprise resource planning (ERP) information system is used as an initial step in fulfilling information management needs. the use of modeling itself is an initial implementation of information technology and information systems in a corporate environment, especially PTPN VII. The results of modeling have been done using three types of diagrams in UML as a reference in the development of structure diagrams created using class diagrams, behavior diagrams created using use case diagrams, and interaction diagrams created using activity diagrams. The results of the modeling have also been implemented in the form of a prototype of the information system so as to provide a clear picture for interested parties if the development of enterprise resource planning (ERP) information systems, especially in the PTPN VII environment. The information system prototype can also describe the initial forms for stakeholders if changes are to be made

People analytics refers to the systematic and scientific process of applying quantitative or qualitative data analysis methods to derive insights that shape and inform employee-related business decisions and performance. More specifically, people analytics can be described as the process of collecting, analyzing, and reporting people-related data for the purpose of improving decision making, achieving strategic objectives, and sustaining a competitive advantage. In other words, people analytics involves scientific organizational research. As a field, people analytics has emerged as an extension of traditional human resources (HR) metrics and reporting, such as annualized turnover rate and cost per hire. Further, as an interdisciplinary field, people analytics integrates decades of science and practice in the areas of industrial and organizational psychology, organizational behavior, human resource management, statistics, mathematics, information systems and management, data science, finance, law, and ethics. Other related terms include HR analytics, human capital analytics, workforce analytics, and talent analytics. A major emphasis of people analytics is on making more effective data-driven HR decisions to realize organizational strategic objectives and to achieve a competitive advantage. Although the concepts and practices underlying people analytics are not entirely new, recent advances in computing power and information systems have brought people analytics to a wider audience via more affordable information system and enterprise resource planning platforms, and more powerful mathematical and statistical programs. Moreover, the growing scholarly and business interest in people analytics is based, in part, on the emergence of HR as a strategic business partner in organizations and the growing emphasis placed on making data-driven decisions in HR. Finally, people analytics can be differentiated into three levels of increasing complexity and organizational value: (a) descriptive analytics describe what has already happened in the organization, (b) predictive analytics predict what will or could happen in the organization, and (c) prescriptive analytics take data-analytic findings and use them to improve decisions and to make specific actions.
