This also applies to the ERP systems.

It is essential that the solution can be operated in Chinese and, under given conditions, also in a non-Chinese language. This gives foreign companies the opportunity to have their ERP system certified with the Chinese Ministry of Finance.

When introducing the ERP, sufficient training should also be provided. This ensures that everyone is familiar with the system before using it.
