ERP Automation

The right enterprise resource planning (ERP) system helps you standardize, integrate, and streamline your business processes, improving efficiency and effectiveness. Every industry has specific requirements and characteristics, making it critical to choose a system geared to those needs—think governmental agencies, financial institutions, and many more.

Even when you’ve made the right choice, however, some level of customization may still be necessary. Customization frequently helps organizations seamlessly integrate their legacy systems or new applications and technologies so they’re able to unleash their systems’ full potential.

Marcum Technology’s application development team assists with the entire automation lifecycle:

Identifying system requirements that are missing from the system.
Designing interfaces for integrations with – and custom imports from — your current systems, or designing entire new modules and reporting databases and processes.
Determining the necessary system specifications.
Collaborating with your staff to assess needs and design, create, implement, test, and get the needed solution up and running.

The Cloud

One of the world’s largest research and advisory companies estimates that by 2024, 60 percent of all new midsized core financial management application projects will be in the cloud.¹ The emergence of cloud technology has had a significant effect on ERP customization. Cloud-hosted systems contain rules that allow customers to reconfigure but not to customize their core code. Every day, the Marcum Technology application development team works with ERP application program interfaces and software development kits of many industry-leading, cloud-based ERP systems to tailor systems to our clients needs.

3 MAJOR REASONS for ERP AUTOMATION

1. Productivity

Automation can address any number of productivity issues. For example, accounting system loopholes can allow a project that has been closed out to be selected and posted as a journal entry. To fix the problem, Marcum creates a smart rule in your ERP system to block closed jobs from being reposted, saving you the time it takes to correct erroneous entries.

2. Integration of Legacy Systems

Marcum’s team helps you avoid needless duplicate entry and other manual tasks that increase the likelihood of errors. Marcum’s team has integrated literally hundreds of systems, facilitating the flow of appropriate data into or out of clients’ accounting systems.

3. Workflow and Functionality

Sometimes, a process that’s integral to a client’s business isn’t built into the ERP software “out of the box.” Rather than the client having to change its established processes to fit the new system, Marcum customizes the system to accommodate the client’s workflow or add missing functionality.
