Overview
What is Horus-ERP?
Horus-ERP is a powerful web-based ERP/CRM/SCM/PLM management application capable of helping any SME (Small, Medium) or large enterprise to plan, optimize and control all their business goals.
Main Features of Horus-ERP:
Enterprise organization management tools and features:
- The ability to create complex structures to organize your world-wide business from top level to the smallest task actions and split the activity by continent, countries, states, cities, by companies, company teams, cost centers, production, investments, etc. (if you are a government organization or a complex international corporation with presences in thousands of different locations, you will find Horus-ERP very comfortable to use)
- Team management (users are allocated on different tasks by forming working teams and they can use the application modules depending on their roles within the organization)
- Team work concept (allow several users to work simultaneously on the same tasks while solving different issues, depending on their individual roles)
- Create organization counters to easily recognize the paths within the application (each task is automatically assigned an optional incrementing number with 3 configurable parts, which is then reflected in the task's path along with the counters of the upper tasks)
- Define Favorite tasks (easily go to most important places among thousands of tasks)
- Horus-ERP is designed to handle all levels of process planning requests for the entire organization, not just for commercial, production or accounting processes.
