This course is designed to provide the principals and practices of ERP (enterprise resource planning) software as it relates to advanced manufacturing. Emphasis will be placed on developing advanced skills related to ERP software in the areas of information, production, planning development, manufacturing, customers, and quality control, employees, quotes, sales orders, invoices, and billing. Students will advance their skills as it relates to the flow of products through the facility and be able to recognize ways to increase efficiencies. These areas of instruction will be reinforced by hands-on application in several performance lab exercises.
