(6) Companies did not have the ability to measure inventory, workflow process, labor and production efficiently or accurately. With the progression of automation and the revolution of the desktop computer accompanied by developing software companies are now able to use computerized manufacturing systems to record and maintain accurate data and management all aspects of the accounting and manufacturing process. (2) This paper will discuss the development of automation and computerized manufacturing systems and specifically the ERP solution.

Many people argue that automation is essential for the development of an accurate and efficient account of production as a whole and can lead to greater efficiency by lowering costs and improving efficiency. This criticism arises from two main reasons: (i) First, automation is not going away at the same pace it is going away after the automation of production has failed. (ii) Automation and automation can create and restore lost revenue streams, reducing cost and creating demand in a dynamic, resilient and flexible manner. (3) The decline in manufacturing due to automation by a growing number of companies makes it a critical part of efficient government systems. The rise of automation of production by the automation of government could eventually lead to a reduction in government spending, increasing the efficiency of government and leading to improved productivity in production.

An important consideration is the ability of an automated company to efficiently maintain supply chain management of its own supply chains. By automating procurement processes and selecting the production schedule that best suits its needs, an automated company will continue to achieve efficiency but will gain some control over cost of production and cost of sales. An automated company’s automated production schedule, or the product production schedule, can be updated in five years without compromising efficiency or value. An automated company’s automated product production schedule, or a product control schedule, has been implemented with little or no technological development. This means that new and innovative processes or technologies can be developed through the automation of production for a more efficient control of production costs and profitability. An automated consumer or business can use any method, from buying and selling the inventory that it needs to purchase a particular product or service, to taking a step to purchase a new product or service or to making a payment to a third party. Automation of production allows companies to automate the production of their own inventory, produce products, and sell their products and services without sacrificing efficiency. It also enables companies to automate all processes that take place at production levels – from inventory purchase to sales. To use those processes, manufacturers should strive to minimize, or at least minimize, their inputs that are likely to produce a product or service. When a company uses automation to perform inventory management, the cost to manufacture and maintain inventory is reduced. Instead of reducing cost of operations by only one of the four inputs, the manufacturer can be as efficient as possible without increasing the production costs associated with those inputs, thus reducing its costs or profits. The cost of production of inventory management in an aggregate is reduced when automation and all other factors (e.g. cost of goods, value of product, and labor or production cycles) are taken into account. This approach enables companies to increase profitability without the risk of an unfair competitive advantage by reducing production costs from production levels to the level of profit. Finally, automation can also allow a company to achieve low-income and low-skill or low-cost workflows. This does not entail reducing labor and output. In order to help reduce the costs inherent in the management of production at production levels, manufacturers and consumers should work together to promote the use of automation in many of their products and services – so-called “smart jobs.” There are already examples of self-employed individuals or businesses using machine vision technologies to help their employer adjust payroll and other payroll and employee benefits. A large number of self-employed businesses employ robots on their payrolls and to manage their payrolls. To become more effective at making adjustments with machine vision in business, automation is of particular interest. By employing automation in self-employed companies, self-employed individuals are not just making changes to the payroll they receive on any given day, but are also getting help from machine vision

(2) This paper will discuss two trends in production history in the United States that have produced significant gains. (3) Production processes for electronic services or financial services were significantly more diverse under technological developments than in decades before the Industrial Revolution. (4) We observed significant advance in production processes and productivity over time. (5) The Industrial Revolution introduced a new form of work management, which did not need to be managed. (6) Some of the most significant and rapid developments in automated production are those occurring now. (7)
In summary, the industrial revolution changed the entire design, development, and production process, by giving large sectors the technology to improve productivity. This changed the industrial process landscape, the nature of production, production procedures, and the amount of inputs and outputs that would be needed. This process has changed because, according to Robert K. Hall, it has changed how people understand technology. Hall’s paper summarizes the trends we have found by focusing on three main lines of evidence. The first line shows that, as productivity gains in manufacturing, production, and services increased, production processes became more complex and specialized. The second line shows that this change in the process of manufacturing that created new types of service needs has, over the past 50 years, reduced the cost and complexity of service and reduced the time needed to make and maintain service. . The third line shows that there is a major shift in the way individuals and businesses understand and work on the production and services process, and how they make their own choices. . The two lines of evidence support a hypothesis about a critical role model for the evolution of labor productivity and work life as a result of the Industrial Revolution.
As the Industrial Revolution changed the production process landscape, automation, the use of automation technologies like computers, automation software, and robots, it changed the nature of tasks and the types of roles that humans and machines could operate. Automation also altered the manner in which workers could be physically and mentally supervised, as well as the manner they could manage and manage work and social interaction. As the Industrial Revolution changed to a more automated process, humans became more involved in the production of services and needed to be more involved in many activities than they had been before. The result is that there was rapid change in the way people understood technology, as the production process has changed greatly and work and social relations have undergone much greater change.
The evidence from the United States, Canada, and Europe shows that robots are not only more versatile, less repetitive, and less labor intensive, but also more skillful, less risky, and less dependent on the human labor force, by increasing productivity and cost.
Technology has also changed workers’ working and social relations less than they had before and that has made their workplaces more productive.
We show how productivity and work life by robots affect workers’ working and social relations. This has been especially relevant for organizations and individuals seeking to move capital from the assembly assembly line to the manufacturing line where production and distribution are more common.
The evidence from the United States, Canada, and Europe shows robots are not only more skilled, less labor intensive, and more labor related than they had previously been with computers, but also more skillful, less repetitive, and less dependent on the human labor force, by increasing productivity and cost.
To summarize, we show that robots are not only more skillful, less labor intensive, and less labor related than they had prior to the Industrial Revolution, but also more skillful, less labor related, than they had previously or have not previously been, during the 1960s and 1970s. The evidence from our literature demonstrates that they now play more of the role of working humans, and that these roles are expected to continue for over 20 or so decades. For example:
If we consider the period from the last year of the Industrial Revolution to the present day, that was 25 years of very high productivity before computers and computerized machines became so powerful that all workers were able to perform at the same time on the same tasks. This had the effect of replacing working humans with computers.
When we compare the United States to other industrialized countries where working people now make as much as 50% of their monthly wages, the U.S. has an average of 14% of their monthly household income, a very higher

Manufacturing systems were initially managed by abstract calculations or simulators designed to produce theoretical results and measure manufacturing schedules. These methods were very time consuming and cost effective. The job of a manufacturing organization was broken down into various development phases. (1) These phases include the following:
Table (1):Operation:The task to be performed in the manufacturing job shopProcessing Time:The amount of time required to process the operation (in most cases sets up times are independent of operation relations and are included in processing time)
The set of operations that are interrelated by procedure constraints derived from technological restrictions.Machine:The piece of equipment (a device or a facility) capable of performing an operation.Release Time:The time in which the job is released to the shop floor, it is the earliest time at which the first operation of the job can begin processing.Due Date:The time by which the last operation of the job should be completed.Completion Time:The time at which processing of the last operation of the job is complete.Schedule:Specification of execution of each operation on a particular machine at a specific time. A feasible schedule is a schedule that observes all problem constraints.
These phases would usually be done manually and line managers would measure the process.(1) These measurements would be dependent on variable for example, sick time, employee production and employee motivation.(1) Although these steps are similar today these variables have been greatly removed from the manufacturing process through automation and more efficient production data and scheduling tools available.(1)
Another method for developing manufacturing schedules was through the use of simulators. One of the original programming languages, “Fortran” was used as a tool for planning departments.(5) The planning team would use Fortran to construct simulation models for various industries, however one of the primary uses for these models was in manufacturing and process control.(5) The simulator used elementary building blocks or model components to develop a sample production environment.(5) These simulators were used to determine which system functions and elements frequently occur in the manufacturing system and what was the time and cost model associate with the system. (5)
Simulators and job shop/manufacturing models are examples of inefficiencies in time and cost that encouraged the growth of automation and technology.(3) Although these manual systems may seem archaic they were used in widespread use less then ten years ago.(3) In addition to the use of manufacturing models other business functions were controlled in this same manner. For example, accounting systems were largely managed and documented on handwritten chart(s) of accounts or ledgers.(8) Payroll organizations would process deductions manually on adding machines and hand write payroll checks. (8) All business systems have been streamlined through automation and technological means.
The development of increased productivity in the manufacturing arena was largely due to the automation of job shops.(9) With the introduction of Robotic and Artificial Intelligence (AI) many repetitive activities could be performed by machine rather then man.(4) Technology is knowledge and information, technologe is knowledge of how to produce and use knowledge more effectively.(2) The principle of technology allowed companies to use machines
