What Is CRM and ERP System The earliest CRM was developed from the software used by the Front Desk sale staff, and therefore it was known as the Front Desk office software (Front Office). Now, CRM has been extended to a management software p

10、ss operations background. B. Main Troubles about Them At present, there are still many troubles mainly because that the information available can not be used and not respond to customers needs and requirements real-timely. If only ERP was used, it would be difficult to provide the real world with su
