More than just tools for handling repetitive tasks, they are used to guide and advance all of a company's' daily activities. Integrated management software is today very often a key source of significant competitive advantage.

Risks and integration costs are important barriers to all the advantages you gain from such systems. That is why, today, few small- and medium-sized companies use ERP. In addition, the larger ERP vendors such as SAP, Microsoft and Oracle have not been able to reconcile the power and comprehensive cover of an ERP system with the simplicity and flexibility wanted by the users. But this is exactly what small and medium enterprises are looking for.

Having restructured and reorganized many businesses, we wanted our management experience to generate a work that is both instructive and practical. It was important for us not to write a manual about OpenERP, but instead a work that deals with advanced management techniques realized through these IT tools. You will see what management practices might be useful, what is possible, and then how you could achieve that in OpenERP.

Part One, :ref:`part1-steps`, starts with the installation of OpenERP. If you have already installed OpenERP you can directly take your first steps on a guided tour in the :ref:`ch-guided` chapter. If you are already familiar with OpenERP or Tiny ERP you can use the :ref:`ch-real` chapter to find out how to create a new workflow from scratch in an empty database with nothing to distract you. Or you can skip directly to the :ref:`CRM <part2-crm>` chapter in the :ref:`CRM <part2-crm>` part, to start with details of OpenERP's functional modules.
