SubjectEdit
Enterprise Resource Planning Application - Subject Matter and Workshop
The challenge of an ERP Application is more of a grasp of differing concepts first before anything else. It is a spectrum of disciplines ranging from Financials Management to Software Development. Thus the emphasis is dependant on a particular student's background. There maybe different tracks of emphasis where advanced students may proceed faster than needed. IT students may focus more on either technical or cover their blindspot with the functionals. Non-IT but related disciplines such as Accounting and Business may take the technical challenge on a survival basis and quickly return to their own discipline within the ERP Application.
The student shall go through a whole straightforward process of downloading, installing and operating the ERP application.

The objectives of this subject are:
- To download resources of an Open Source ERP application
