CW, You didn't ask my opinion, but I'm going to give it anyway. :o) There are some excellent reasons to go the individual components route, rather than implementing a whole ERP solution. 1. The individual components tend to be better, deeper products. 2. You can pick and choose the individual components that best match your needs. 3. Nowadays, the major vendors all have mature application interfaces that allow them to work well together, and to feed information accurately to the other systems that need the information. And, maybe most important: 4. You don't have to bet the ranch. I have heard of several companies that have run into real trouble when implementing ERP. (One was in Value Line. The company ended up with significant revenue shortfalls when they tried to implement SAP, and apparently lost control of their operations and in the process really pissed off some important customers. Best, JS
