Manufacturing Execution

In the present manufacturing paradigm, manufacturing execution systems (MESs) play a significant role in effective manufacturing management. Offered software solutions simultaneously close the gap between Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems and production equipment control or SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) applications. Current ERP systems usually contain modules for material management, accounting, human resource management and all other functions that support business operations. In the past years, the role of ERP has been extended to cross-organizational coordination. Nowadays, as optimization of production activities is increasingly topical, a cooperation of ERP and MES becomes a serious concern of manufacturing managers.

This chapter outlines the significance of enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems and analyses the rationale used for their adoption. This study is structured around a theory of the motivations for investment in information technology (IT) to support core business operations. The data used for the study are documents published electronically on the Internet by universities. A content analysis was applied to this data. The chapter employs frequent use of quotes from the sources selected to assist the reader to understand the context and to verify the analysis. The findings are that the main reasons for adopting ERP are the modernization of systems, greater usability and flexibility, integration of data and systems, business process reengineering, an increase in the degree of electronic data interchange including the provision of Web-based interfaces to application systems, reduced maintenance and risk avoidance.

The Impact

In the past decades, enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems have becomeincreasingly automated, particularly for routine management accounting tasks. However, therehas been little research investigating the accounting benefits of adopting ERP systems. Thisstudy investigates the role of perceived accounting benefits in ERP success. Drawing on Juran’sprinciple of ‘fitness for use,’ this study establishes a framework that captures how perceivedaccounting benefits influence effective system use, which, in turn, enhances enterprise success.Using Partial Least Squares – Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) with survey datacollected from 120 enterprises in Vietnam that have implemented ERP, our findings providestrong support for the predicted positive effect of perceived accounting benefits on enterprisesuccess, and for the hypothesis that this relationship is fully mediated by effective system use.This study is novel for two reasons. First, it is one of the first attempts to provide empiricalevidence that effective system use and enterprise success are valuable outcomes of accountingbenefits perceived to be gained from the use of ERP systems. Second, it discovers anddemonstrates that effective system use is the most appropriate system-use concept in thepresent enterprise systems-related context, a topic that remains under discussion in theliterature.

The Impact

The aim of this study is to explore the impact mechanisms of psychological learning climate on employees' innovative use of information systems (IS). Using structural equation modeling, this study develops a theoretical model to investigate how the psychological learning climate affects innovative IS use by introducing individual motivational factors as mediators. The model is tested through a survey of 163 employees using enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems in China. The results suggest that psychological learning climate is positively related to innovative IS use both directly and indirectly. The indirect effect works through motivating employees' intrinsic motivation and creative self-efficiency. This study adds to the literature on IS use by identifying and examining the role of psychological learning climate as a driver of innovative IS use. The findings could provide managers with an understanding of how management can inspire employees' potential in IS innovation.

The Relationship

ABSTRACT Prior research has shown that the implementation of ERP systems can significantly affect a firm's business operations and processes. However, scant research has been conducted on the relationship between ERP implementation and the timeliness of external audits, such as audit report lags. While some of the alleged benefits of ERP are closely related to removing impediments contributing to audit report lags, others argue that the complex mechanisms of ERP systems create greater complexity for control and audit. In this paper, we examine the relationship between ERP implementations and audit report lags. The test results indicate that overall, a firm's ERP implementation is negatively associated with audit report lag. However, this negative association is significant only at the fourth and fifth years after initial ERP implementation. These results imply that the use of ERP systems by client firms may help decrease the audit report lag, but it takes time for the full impact of the firms' accounting systems to be realized.

The Impact

Organizations in the current environment need to create and sustain their competitive advantages. ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) solutions are considered a strong tool that helps organizations to succeed and arise. But ERP projects’ implementation has relatively low success rates in which it may affect and shake the whole organizational performance. This study searches the power of software usability to achieve ERP Project Implementation Success (ERP-PIS) considering the mediating role of user information satisfaction (UIS). A set of research's hypotheses have been constructed. This study adapts a positivism view, using the survey strategy. The questionnaires were filled by 106 managers who use ERP systems or affected by ERP systems in different organizations. The findings of the research ensure the fitness of the model, and that mediation role of user information satisfaction (UIS) in Jordan is highly visible. Also, the research shows up the strong power of usability to achieve ERP-PIS. Based on the findings, development of ERP applications would be improved by software organizations in terms of usability, and organizations need to acquire ERP applications would also improve their decisions in choosing an ERP solution.

Mediating Role

Enterprises have implemented enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems as a strategic vehicle to gain a competitive edge. However, such ERP systems do not always guarantee successful results. While ERP systems may provide an organization with numerous benefits, they can also destroy a business if not successfully adopted, owing to enormous investment losses coupled with low business efficiency. To explore a way to reverse this situation, we examine how organizational citizenship behavior influences the successful management of ERP systems. Moreover, the mediating role of absorptive capacity in this relationship is investigated. The empirical analysis results, based on 188 surveyed organizations in Korea, reveal a partial mediating role of absorptive capacity on the relationship between organizational citizenship behavior and ERP usage performance. The findings of the study shed light on the ways of how the companies that adopt ERP systems to facilitate ERP usage and to gain business sustainability.

The Cost

Enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems are increasingly being adopted by many organizations. The cost, time, and effort of the organization need to be reflected in the uptake and use of the system by employees of the organizations in question. ERP system implementation readiness is positively associated with the ERP implementation success. It is therefore important to measure the success of such software in adopting firms which largely influenced by the readiness of the firm for ERPs. Many studies focus on other aspects of readiness leaving out the major players who are employees. This chapter discusses an effort towards extending CREM evaluation model for employee readiness with the aim of highlighting the role of their readiness in the overall success of ERP implementation. Research findings of this study help decision makers of organizations to attain a comprehensive picture about required actions to be accomplished for achieving readiness for implementing an ERP system.
