Openerp Implementation

Why an implementation memento ?

Our experience has shown us that the implementation speed varies from simple to double depending on the methodology used for implementation. The methodology is therefore crucial to reap the full benefits of an implementation. Keys benefits of an efficient methodology are: 1. Faster company growth. Frequently the implementation process is decelerate because of a bottleneck issue related to HR. As an example, a key project's manager is usually in charge for every steps of the implementation. With the consequence that this high level manager – already fully engaged in one project - can hardly works on another one. This situation forced some companies to refuse projects. To grow faster, you must reduce dependence on high-level managers by the distribution of management between multiple profiles. Quicker delivery. ERP integrations are complex. An efficient methodology allows you to specialised roles and get trained employees that are quickly ready to deliver. Risk mitigation. By working through a systematic approach, you can continuously improve yourself.

To integrate Open ERP, two radically different approaches can be applied. The package approach is an integration mode that is low cost, generic, with few developments to be done. This approach goes from Open ERP generic to customer's needs. An important point here is that your finality is not to describe the client's current processes but an Open ERP solution. At the opposite a custom approach is used when the client's business is weakly cover by Open ERP generic. This approach goes from customer's needs analysis to Open ERP solution. it is usually reserved for very large projects. In the following, we describe a methodology for the package approach. After reading this memento, you should have a clear vision on how to improve your efficiency and the profitability of your Open ERP projects by applying a package approach. Implementation phases:
