ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning)

  • ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) is software that helps a company to manage different business activities in one system.
  • ERP has different modules, and each module handles a specific business activity. All these modules are connected to each other and share the same data.
  • ERP modules help a company manage money, employees, purchases, and the movement of goods in one system.
  • ERP software has some common modules that help a company manage its main activities.
  • ERP helps a business work faster, reduce mistakes and costs, share information easily, and make better decisions.

1) Financial Management: Manages money, accounts, expenses, and financial reports.
2) Human Resources (HR): Manages employees, salaries, attendance, and employee information.
3) Procurement: Helps the company purchase goods and services from suppliers.
4) Supply Chain Management: Tracks products and goods from the supplier to the customer.

Common Basic ERP Modules

1) Financial Management: Manages accounting, accounts payable and receivable, financial reporting, and overall cash flow.

2) Human Resources (HR)/Human Capital Management: Handles payroll, employee data, talent management, and other HR functions.

3) Procurement: Manages the purchasing of goods and services from suppliers.

4) Supply Chain Management: Oversees the flow of goods from suppliers through manufacturing to customers.

5) Inventory Management: Automates inventory tracking, reduces handling costs, and optimizes stock levels.

6) Customer Relationship Management (CRM): While sometimes a frontoffice tool, it's integrated into ERPs to provide a holistic view of customer interactions and sales.


Key Benefits of ERP Modules

  1. Easy and Faster Work: - ERP automates many tasks and connects different departments. This helps employees work faster and saves time.
  2. Accurate Data: - ERP stores all information in one common database. This reduces mistakes and duplicate data.
  3. Real-Time Information: - ERP provides updated information about the business. Managers can quickly see what is happening in different departments.
  4. Better Decision Making: - ERP provides accurate and updated information. Managers can use this information to make better decisions.
  5. Reduced Costs: - ERP combines many separate systems into one system. This reduces software, maintenance, and support costs.
  6. Better Communication: - ERP connects different departments and allows them to share information easily. This improves teamwork and communication.

2.1 Control statements in C programming (sequential & conditional)

Control statements in C: - C is a structure-orientated programming language; the statements that are used to control the flow of execution of a program are called control structures. The statements provide a specific order to execute the C program. In C programming, we have four types of control structures. Sequential control structures Conditional control structures Iterative control structures Jumping control structures   1) Sequential control structures: - The C program is a collection of instructions or set of statements which are executed sequentially in a user-specific order. No statement is slipped, and no statement is executed more than once.                   Syntax: -                Flow chart: -                Example: - Output: - 1) Conditional control structures: - It is also known as selection, branchi...

2.4 Arrays in c programming

  Arrays: - An array is a collection of elements of the same data type stored in contiguous memory locations. It is a derived data type and a homogenous data structure. It is a variable which can store multiple values of the same type under a single variable name, making it easier to manage and manipulate related data. The size of an array is fixed. To access the elements of an array, we use indexes or subscripts accordingly. array index or subscript is used to identify array elements address. Array index or subscript starts with 0 to n-1.   Declaration of an array: - The declaration of an array means telling the compiler to create an array variable and reserving memory for a fixed number of elements of the same data type. Initialization of an array: - Initializing an array means assigning initial values to its elements. Types of arrays: - Arrays are classified based on the number of dimensions they have:             ...

3.5 Parameter passing techniques in C

Parameter passing techniques: - Parameters are the values or variables that are passed to a function when it is called. These parameters allow data to be shared between the calling function (main) and the called function (sub function). There are mainly two types of parameter passing techniques in C:                         1.  Call by Value                         2.  Call by Reference 1)    Call- by-value: - Call by value is a method of passing arguments to a function in which a copy of the actual variable’s value is passed to the function. Any changes made inside the function do not affect the original variable outside the function.                Example: -                Output: - 2) Call-by-reference: - Call by addr...
