3. The Implications
If your Enterprise Applications are not automated you cannot even determine if your Systems received your transactions and data-entered accurately. You have no confidence that they will pick-pack-ship the right product or quantity.
If your system relationships are not integrated, you cannot determine if, when and to what extent your suppliers will be able to fill your orders
When your Enterprise applications are collaborative, you will automatically be able to reduce pending receivables, decrease over-due Invoices, reduce days of inventory, reduce returns and more. Business rules, established between you and the customer/supplier, will run 98% of the routine business. 2% of exceptions will be handled manually
