PT. XYZ is a company that moves in glue manufacturing. The business activities includes purchases of raw materials, manufacturing process, and finished goods sales. The company implemented OpenERP which focused on Purchase and sales modules to integrate their business processes. OpenERP implementation uses Accelerated SAP (ASAP) methodology. Initial stages in the ASAP method are preparing schedules, purposes, and scope. Followed by, collecting data through interviews and observations. Then analyze business processes and problems, as well as the user requirements using difference table analysis. From the analysis, the consultant identified the problems that exist. After getting the requirement, conducted stages of planning new business processes or Blueprint. The Blueprint contains the system running now (as-is) and the design of the system that will be applied (to-be) which will be used in the realization stage to perform configuration, customization, data migration and testing interfaces. The next stage is the final preparation, where consultants will conduct final testing, create a user manual and conduct user training. Once this step is done, the implementation of the system will go live towards the stage and the system has been confirmed free of bugs and user needs are met.
