Data Storage

Important to understand how data is organized

Chart of accounts

Coding schemas that are well thought out to anticipate management needs are most efficient and effective

Transaction journals (e.g., Sales)

Subsidiary ledgers (e.g., Accounts receivable)

General ledger

Note: With the above, one can trace the path of the transaction (audit trail)

Coding Techniques

Sequence codes—items numbered consecutively to account for all items (i.e., prenumbered forms)

Block code—blocks of numbers reserved for specific categories of data (i.e., product numbers that start with a 2 are refrigerators)

Group codes—two or more subgroups of digits used to code items (i.e., car vin #’s)

Mnemonic codes—letters and numbers interspersed to identify an item (i.e. Dry300W05 is low end (300), white (W) dryer (DRY) made by Sears (05))

Data Processing

Four types of processing (CRUD):

Creating new records (e.g., adding a customer)

Reading existing data

Updating previous record or data

Deleting data

Data processing can be batch processed (e.g., post records at the end of the business day) or in real-time (process as it occurs).

Information Output

The data stored in the database files can be viewed

Online (soft copy)

Printed out (hard copy)

Document (e.g., sales invoice)

Report (e.g., monthly sales report)

Query (question for specific information in a database, e.g., Which division had the most sales for the month?)

Advantages of ERP System

Integrated enterprise-wide single view of the organization’s data which streamlines the flow of information

Data captured once (i.e., no longer need sales to enter data about a customer and then accounting to enter same customer data for invoicing)

Greater visibility and monitoring capabilities for management

Improve access of control of the data through security settings

Standardization of procedures and reports

Improves customer service

Increases productivity through automation
