1)System Development Life Cycle of ERP (SDLC)

Development Life Cycle consist of following phases:

1. Current Business Process/ Investigation stage Review
In this phase consultant can understand all current business processes
and after understanding this he will able to analysis what the client actually
needs.

2. Solution Design Document/ Proposed Solution

The design phase up to the point of starting development, once all of the
requirements have been gathered, analyzed, verified, and a design has been
 produced, we are ready to pass on the programming requirements to the
application programmers.

3. Gap Analysis
User review the Current Business Process documents and Solution
design document and after that, if identify some gap between both documents
the consultant may prepared Gap analysis document with at least two
workaround/ options (i.e. need process re-engineering OR some customization/
modification in application), as a consultant you may try to process re-
engineering instead of customization/ modification in application

4. Development Phase/ Configuration of Development Server

The programmers take the design documents (programming
requirements) and then proceed with the iterative process of coding, testing,
revising, and testing again.

5. User Training
After Configuration of development Server, conduct the training of all user
with current use cases and after a sufficient training we may clone/ copy of
development server and that copy will handover to user for further testing .

6. Testing Phase/ Configuration of Test Server

After the programs have been tested by the programmers, they will be part
of a series of formal user and system tests. These are used to verify usability and
functionality from a user point of view, as well as to verify the functions of the
application within a larger framework.

7. Conference Room Pilot (CRP) Session

When user satisfied as per specific time period after using the test server
and they enter most of its use cases in test environment, consultant conduct
CRP session with user and Management, the end user will test all test cases and
after that run concern reports and Management review, sometime may we
conduct more than one CRP (i.e. CRP 1 and CRP2).

8. Production Phase/ Go Live Production

The final phase in the development life cycle is to go to production and
become steady state. As a prerequisite to going to production, the development
team needs to provide documentation. This usually consists of user training and
operational procedures. The user training familiarizes the users with the new
application. The operational procedures documentation enables Operations to
 take over responsibility for running the application on an ongoing basis. In
production, the changes and enhancements are handled by a group (possibly the
same programming group) that performs the maintenance. At this point in the life
cycle of the application, changes are tightly controlled and must be rigorously
tested before being implemented into production.

9. Post Live Support

After live the production server, client must need support from consultant
because user not fully aware about the new system, some clients may require
support one month, some three month and some may sign support contract for
one year.

2)The Accounting Information System

AIS subsystems process financial transactions and nonfinancial

transactions that directly affect the processing of financial transactions. For
example, changes to customers’ names and addresses are processed by the AIS
to keep the customer file current. Although not technically financial transactions,
these changes provide vital information for processing future sales to the
customer.
Management Information System (MIS)
Management often requires information that goes beyond the capability of
AIS.As organizations grow in size and complexity, specialized functional areas
Emerge, requiring additional information for production planning and control,
sales forecasting, inventory warehouse planning, market research, and so on.
The management information system (MIS) processes nonfinancial transactions
 that are not normally processed by traditional AIS.

Major Sub System of Accounting (AIS)

 The transaction processing system (TPS
 The general ledger/financial reporting system (GL/FRS) System
 The management reporting system (MRS)

Transaction Processing System

The TPS is central to the overall function of the information system by converting
economic events into financial transactions, recording financial transactions in
the accounting records (journals and ledgers), and distributing essential financial
information to operations personnel to support their daily operations.

General Ledger/Financial Reporting Systems

The general ledger system (GLS) and the financial reporting system (FRS) are
Two closely related subsystems.
However, because of their operational interdependency, they are generally
Viewed as a single integrated system—the GL/FRS.

Management Reporting System

The MRS provides the internal financial information needed to manage a
business.
Managers must deal immediately with many day-to-day business problems, as
well as plan and control their operations.

Characteristics of useful information

 Relevant
The capacity of information to make a difference in a decision by helping
users to form predictions about the outcomes of past, present, and future events
or to confirm or correct prior expectations.

 Reliable
The quality of information that assures that information is reasonably free
from error and bias and faithfully represents what it purports to represent.

 Complete
The inclusion in reported information of everything material that is
necessary for faithful representation of the relevant phenomena.
 Timely
Having information available to a decision maker before it loses its
capacity to influence decisions.

 Understandable
The quality of information that enables users to perceive its significance.

 Verifiable
The ability through consensus among measurers to ensure that
information represents what it purports to represent or that the chosen method of
measurement has been used without error or bias.

 Accessible
Available when needed (see timely) and in a useful format (see
Understandable). The ability through consensus among measurers to ensure that
information represents what it purports to represent or that the chosen method of
measurement has been used without error or bias.

 Accessible
Available when needed (see timely) and in a useful format (see
Understandable).
