What Is ERP?
Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) is a commercial-off-the-shelf
(COTS) business solution leveraging industry best practices to
automate, integrate, and standardize processes and data across the
enterprise

supplying standard, real-time financial data and information
Improved Information for Financial Decision Making.
Accurate data is ERP backbone

Cost Collection Example
Asset (Asset Management Module) Work Order (Plant Maintenance module) Cost Center (Controlling module)
Asset #1234 Work Order #2234 Cost Center #ABCD
3 Labor $ 6,000 2
Current value $1,000,000 Payroll $6,200
Work Order costs 100,000 Materials $90,000
4 1 Shop Stock $ 2,000
Work Order #2234 $<6,000>
$1,100,000 Equipment $ 2,000 3
$100,000 $ 200
Related Work Orders Asset #1234 $<100,000> 4
Work Order #2234 $100,000 $ 0
1 Costs of performing the activity are collected on the Work Order
2 Payroll is posted to the organization Cost Center
3 Labor hours are confirmed against a work order – offsets payroll costs in the Organization’s Cost Center
4 At month end, work order costs are posted against the asset (if costs are to capitalized) or remain in operating
expenses
Key Benefits:
• Integrated Asset/Work Order costing
• Drill-down capabilities – all work orders and associated costs by Asset; all work orders by
cost center (organization)
