Aimportância dos sistemas ERPna gestão financeira das empresas

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the importance of ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) systems in the financial management of companies, focusing on their benefits for financial efficiency and control, challenges in implementation and continuous use, and their contribution to financial decision-making. The research was conducted through bibliographic review and a survey. Data collection instruments for the bibliographic research included books, scientific articles, and websites, while the survey instrument was a questionnaire via Google Forms, comprising open and closed questions with qualitative and quantitative approaches. The questionnaire was administered in the second half of 2024 to 12 respondents, all of whom were finance professionals from various organizational levels across different companies. The results were presented in tables, descriptions, and/or graphs. The findings confirmed the importance of ERP in optimizing financial management, highlighting how these systems contribute to strengthening internal control, reducing errors, and providing strategic support for decision-making. The findings show that, despite challenges related to costs and the need for training, the benefits offered by ERP systems outweigh the barriers, indicating a positive and significant impact on the efficiency and competitiveness of organizations.
