     <application, business> (ERP) Any software system designed
     to support and automate the business processes of medium and
     large businesses.  This may include manufacturing,
     distribution, personnel, project management, payroll, and

     ERP systems are accounting-oriented information systems for
     identifying and planning the enterprise-wide resources
     needed to take, make, distribute, and account for customer
     orders.  ERP systems were originally extensions of MRP II
     systems, but have since widened their scope.  An ERP system
     also differs from the typical MRP II system in technical
     requirements such as relational database, use of object oriented programming
      language, computer aided software engineering
      tools in development, client/server
     architecture, and open system portability.
  
     JBOPS are the major producers of ERP software.
