Spreadsheets in an ERP environment: not what the doctor ordered
Modern ERP systems contain flexible report generators but the tendency exists
for users to export data to spreadsheets for manipulation, reporting and
decision making. A purported reason for this is that some users are more
familiar with personal reporting tools (spreadsheets) as opposed to enterprise
reporting tools. The author's doctoral research intends to measure the extent
of spreadsheet usage in ERP environments and to determine which factors
facilitate this.Comment: In Proceedings of the 2nd Workshop on Software Engineering Methods in
