3. Additional discussion topics - ERP - Jacobs and Chase (2018) ask us these questions - "ERP requires a company to have consistent definitions across functional areas. Consider the problem of measuring demand. How is demand measured? Is it when manufacturing completes an order? When items are picked from finished goods? When they physically leave the premises? When they are invoiced? When they arrive at the customer sites? What is needed is a set of agreed-on definitions that are used by all functional units when they are processing their transactions. Consistent reporting of such measures as demand, stockouts, raw materials inventory, and finished goods inventory, for example, can then be accomplished. This is a basic building block for ERP systems"
