| # Overview of ERP Enterprise This section describes the structure of the ERP Enterprise application. Package, module, and session The ERP Enterprise application consists of packages, for example, Manufacturing, Financials, and Warehousing. Each package represents a functional area. A package is subdivided into modules, for example, Pricing, Purchase Control, and Sales Control. Every module has a number of sessions that enable you to perform specific tasks. In a session, you can maintain data and issue commands to process that data. Implementation specifics An organization can decide to implement only a selection of the packages. Furthermore, each module has parameters that influence the way that the application functions. Example If you select the Block if Credit Limit is Exceeded check box in the Sales Order Parameters (tdsls0100s400) session, ERP Enterprise blocks sales orders for customers for which the credit limit has been exceeded. Client/server architecture ERP Enterprise has a client/server architecture. On the background, the Enterprise Server package takes care of communications with the database, user authorizations, and so on. Users log on to ERP Enterprise from their own client workstations. User interface ERP Enterprise comes with these user interfaces: Infor10 Workspace A web application framework that provides a common user interface for ERP Enterprise and various other Infor applications. Infor Web UI An application that you run in an internet browser, without installing anything on the client workstation.
