Section 1. Overview
1.1 Purpose

This project aims at building our own ERP solutions suitable for small to medium-sized
enterprises (SME). Among many features of the ERP, this project will integrate the Inventory
Information Management and the Human Resource Information Management. This software
solution will integrate all the inventory information and human resource information in a central
database providing consistent information to the managers, hence providing them with the overall
view of the company in terms of manpower and the stock. In a large organization, this system
improves interdepartmental communication making consistent information flow simultaneously
among all the departments.

1.2 Scope

Non-Trading, Non-Manufacturing Business Organization (Software Company to be specific)


consisting of quite a few numbers of employees can use the software for the following reasons:

• Manage Human Resources

• Manage Inventory
Note: It does not require sales part since it is targeted to Software Company.

• Manage reports

1.3 Target Audience

End user must have basic knowledge in computer and should be familiar with Internet Browsing
Application, such as Internet Explorer, Firefox etc. This software is targeted to automate the
business processes in a small to medium sized organization and hence it also requires the user
to have basic knowledge about Management and Business.

ERP Solutions Version 1.0 | August 26, 2007

Section 2. Assumptions, Dependencies, Constraints


Assumptions

The software assumes the end user of the software to be a software company which is non-
trading, non manufacturing business company and hence it doesn’t account the sales part of the
company in an inventory management system.

Dependencies

The project has been broken down into Human Resource Management System and Inventory
Management System. These two sub systems will be integrated in a later phase of the project.
This may drive change in the requirements.

Constraints

In designing an ERP, an entire organization is viewed as a single unit and single database is
maintained such that Human Resource Management and Inventory Management System are
inter-related. Hence, they go in parallel and we have to assume certain constraints while
designing them separately so that we don't have to face difficulties while integrating these sub-
systems.

The software can work on relatively low processing CPUs such as Pentium I or below but we
specify client to be Pentium II or higher.

Server for the software should be powerful as compared to client and must be Pentium IV.

Company must have an Intranet of 10 Mbps or more and internet connectivity.

The system will be designed using the component-based design model utilizing object oriented
design model and relational data model.

ERP Solutions Version 1.0 | August 26, 2007

Section 3. Requirements
3.1 Business Requirements

Security

Following functionalities will be utilized to make the software very secure:

• Use of unique username and password for each user account

• Utilization of certain cryptographic techniques such as md5

• Keeping specific log or history data sets

• Restriction of communications between some areas of the program

• Checking data integrity for critical variables

Maintainability

As this software contains various modules, maintenance is required in individual modules only.
Appropriate comments will be added in the code to make the code more readable and
understandable and the variable names will be chosen according to the context. Details of the
code will be in the documentation.

Portability

To ensure portability, the application will be developed in JAVA language (using J2EE
technology).
