Abstract
The application and evolution of MRP II/ERP can be roughly divided into three stages: the introduction stage, the growth stage, and the maturity stage in Chinese enterprise. A successful ERP implementation requires knowledge on both ERP systems and business management. In implementing ERP, the business processes of those enterprises adopted ERP systems need to be examined. It is important to understand the ERP system itself and the business processes involved with the ERP systems and the enterprises adopted ERP systems. In order to resolve issues that may appear in the process of implementing ERP system, this paper proposes that a systematic analysis of those significant factors involved with implementing ERP systems is a necessity, especially if such analysis is conducted in the framework of systems science.
