ERP ERP -- DefinitionDefinition

“Software solution that addresses the Enterprise needs, taking a process view of the overall organization to meet the goals, by tightly integrating all functions and under a common software platform”

In simpler words, an ERP is a massive software architecture that supports the streaming and distribution of geographically scattered enterprise wide information across all the functional units of a business house. It provides the business management executives with a comprehensive overview of the complete business execution which in turn influences their decisions in a productive way.

Evolution of ERPEvolution of ERP

1960’s - Systems Just for Inventory Control

1970’s - MRP – Material Requirement Planning

(Inventory with material planning & procurement)

1980’s - MRP II – Manufacturing Resources Planning (Extended MRP to shop floor & distribution Mgmt.)

Mid 1990’s - E RP – Enterprise Resource Planning

(Covering all the activities of an Enterprise)

2000 onwards – E RP II – Collaborative Commerce

(Extending ERP to external business entities)

The Before and After of ERP:

“Before” -- each function is supported by multiple applications and interfaces

“After” -- each function is supported by a single application module within the ERP system itself, and all applications leverage a common, authoritative data source.

ERP Product selection CriteriaERP Product selection Criteria

There are many advantages of implementing an ERP system. A few of them are listed below:

#A perfectly integrated system chaining all the functional areas together.

#The capability to streamline different organizational processes and workflows

#The ability to effortlessly communicate information across various departments\

#Improved efficiency, performance and productivity levels

#Enhanced tracking and forecasting

#Improved customer service and satisfaction

Advantages of ERP SystemsAdvantages of ERP Systems

While advantages usually outweigh disadvantages for most organizations implementing an ERP system, here are some of the most common obstacles experienced:

#The scope of customization is limited in several circumstances

#The present business processes have to be rethought to make them synchronize with the ERP

#ERP systems can be extremely expensive to implement

#There could be lack of continuous technical support

#ERP systems may be too rigid for specific organizations that are either new or want to move in a new direction in the near future

Business Process ReBusiness Process Re-- engineeringengineeringJust automating the existing business practiceswill not help ERP to achieve the anticipated results

Business Process Re-engineering [BPR] brings out thedeficiencies of the existing setup

BPR and ERP combination will give way to implement newsystems and the long pending improvements in theexisting systems

BPR may be time consuming but the scope can berestricted & controlled by the Management

• The BPR approach to an ERP implementation implies two separate, but closely linked implementations involved on an ERP site i.e. a technical implementation & a business process implementation.

• The BPR approach emphasis the human element of necessary changes within the organization, which is generally more

• Time consuming & has received its share of criticism for creating bloated budgets & extended projects.

• The ERP market shifts to a mid-market focus & as all implementation are becoming more cost sensitive; the BPR approach has come under some real scrutiny.

• IMPORTANCE OF CONFIGURATIONThis is the main functional area of the ERP

implementation.Business processes have to be understood

& mapped in such a way that the arrived solution matches with the overall goals of the company.

• THE PROTOTYPE

• A prototype- a simulation of the actual business processes of the company- will be used.

The prototype allows for thorough testing of the ‘to be’ model in a controlled environment.

CONFIGURATIONCONFIGURATION

• As the ERP consultants configure & test the prototype they attempt to solve any logistical problems inherited in the BPR before the actual go-live implementation.

•• STRENGTHS & WEAKNESSESSTRENGTHS & WEAKNESSES

– Configuring a company’s system reveals not only the strengths of a company’s business process but also- & perhaps more importantly- its weakness.

– It is vital to the health of the company & to the success of the ERP implementation that those configuring the system are able to explain what won’t fit into the package & where the gaps in functionality occur.

This table is an example of ledger attributes for a global company that has four legal entities—two in the U.S., one in the U.K., and one in France.

Secondary Ledgers

Additional ledgers called secondary ledgers can optionally be assigned to an accounting setup to maintain multiple accounting representations for the same legal entity. For example:● Subledger Level Secondary Ledgers● Journal Level Secondary Ledgers● Balance Level Secondary Ledgers● Adjustments Only Secondary Ledgers

Reporting Currencies

If you only need a different currency representation of the primary or secondary ledgers, assign reporting currencies to them. For example:● Subledger Level Reporting Currency● Journal Level Reporting Currency● Balance Level Reporting Currency

Chart of Accounts

Your chart of accounts is a list of Accounting Flexfields you create to identify general ledger accounts

• This flexible structure is made up of subfields or segments

• Each segment has a name and a set of values

Identifying Business Requirements

Identify the aspects of your business that you need to track and analyze; pay specific attention to aspects that span several applications. Examples include:

• Company, legal entity, fund

• Division, region, territory, state, country

• Location, plant, office, store

• Cost center, department, function

• Natural Account categories:– asset, liability, owner's equity, revenue and expense

• Product, product line, line of business, channel

• Project, phase, task, job, work order

Creating Accounting Flexfields

To create an Accounting Flexfield:1. Define a value set

2. Define an account structure

3. Define valid segment values

4. Optionally, create account combinations

5. Optionally, create aliases

6. Optionally, define security rules

Defining Value Sets

Use value sets to control the characteristics and format of the Accounting Flexfield segment.

The same value set can be used more than once in the same Accounting Flexfield structure.

Steps to Create MassAllocation Journals

Defining MassAllocation Journals

Define a single formula to allocate amounts across a group of balancing segment values, departments, or cost centers. You can create a new MassAllocation batch or copy an existing batch.

Allocate total rent expense.

Dept BDept A Dept C

Defining MassAllocation Formulas

All MassAllocation formulas use the following equation to determine allocation amounts:

Oracle General Ledger uses the following format to represent the equation. Each factor in this equation relates to a separate formula line:

You can enter any combination of fixed amounts and account combinations in formula lines A, B, or C.

Cost Pool * (Usage Factor/Total Usage)

A * B/C

Account Segment Types

When entering an account into a Mass Allocation formula line, assign a segment type for each account segment

Looping

Summing

Constant

Target and Offset Accounts

Target Offset

MassAllocation Journal Example

Redistribute monthly rent expense to departments based on the amount of space each occupies

Rent Expense for Each Department =

Total Rent Expense X Area Used by Department / Total Area

In January 2002, the organization spends 10,000 dollars for rent

Dr. Rent expense 10,000 functional dollars

Cr. Rents payable 10,000 functional dollars

MassAllocation Journal Example

Allocate rent to three departments:

Human Resources 45% of total floor space

Research 30% of total floor space

Finance 25% of total floor space

The rent expense is redistributed by the following MassAllocation Journal entry:

Dr. Human Resources 4,500 functional dollars

Dr. Research rent 3,000 functional dollars

Dr. Finance rent expense 2,500 functional dollars

Cr. Total Rent Expense 10,000 functional dollars

Generating Mass Allocation Journals

● Generate MassAllocations to create unposted journal batches based on your validated MassAllocation formulas– The generated journal batch contains one entry for each

allocation formula in the batch● Use MassAllocation journals to reverse existing balances,

post new allocation amounts, or generate journals that increment the existing balances to match the current allocation amount

● Generate MassAllocation journal batches for any range of open or future enterable periods

Foreign Currency Concepts

There are three key concepts in Oracle General Ledger that pertain to foreign currency:

Integrating with Subledgers

Foreign currency obligation is entered in Oracle Payables

Payables journal entry is recorded in General Ledger

Foreign currency is revalued and the unrealized gain or lost is recorded

Payables journal entry is recorded in General Ledger

Realized foreign currency gain or loss is calculated

Foreign currency obligation is paid in Oracle Payables

● Useful for consolidation reporting and analysis

● No need to physically move balances to create views of consolidation data

● Beneficial for parent consolidation entities that share the same chart of accounts and calendar with their subsidiaries

● Tighter link to ledgers!● For accounting and

reporting in another currency (in addition to the ledger's primary currency)

● Can be used with Primary or Secondary ledgers

Business Reasons Benefits

Defining Currencies

Use the Currencies window to define and enable or disable currencies

Conversion Overview

Oracle General Ledger converts journal amounts entered in a foreign currency to functional currency equivalents using daily conversion rates
