In the modern era of business, the retail sector has received a red carpet welcome from consuming community of the society. Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) is an integrated computer-based system used to manage internal and external resources including tangible assets, financial resources, materials, and human resources. Retail is the sale of goods to end users, not for resale, but for use and consumption by the purchaser. The retail transaction is at the end of the supply chain. Wal-Mart is one example of a retail business with its operations spanning across different continents around the world. Management of such a distributed network of retail chains is a Herculean task indeed. The retail Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) packages help the retailers in better management of their enterprise wide operations spanning the entire globe.
