What is the difference between MIS and ERP ??

Answer Posted / muhammad talha bin masood

In my opinion an ERP system can be called a specific
application of MIS concept. The other applications built on
MIS concept are CRMs, LMS, CMS, LCMS etc.

So, MIS is a concept which gives the idea of storing
information (whether centralized or decentralized
topology), making the information available to be accessed
using computers and latest technology tools, providing the
users to infer more information based on the resident
information and manage the flow of information from one
location to another appropriately.

So this (the above) being a general concept be applied to
any business process or a network of inter-related business
processes.

Comparing MIS with an ERP is like comparing 'Knowledge'
with a 'Book' :)

Cheers.
