THE IMPACT OF DIGITALIZATION AND ERP SYSTEMS ON THE SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT OF THE ORGANIZATION

Abstract

There is a very strong relationship between the concept of digitalization and the concept of sustainable development, because the more automated the processes within the organization, the lower inefficient consumption of resources and the negative impact on the environment are. Given the characteristics of accounting information systems, organizations have come to the conclusion that ERP systems are the most appropriate system to ensure the digitization of processes and sustainable development of the organization. Under such perspectives, the paper employs an empirical direction comprising a questionnaire, analyzed with the aid of Microsoft Excel where the sensitivity model was developed. The results show that ERP systems have a favorable impact on the sustainable development of the organization, given the large volume of data that can be processed with these information systems and through which resource consumption is significantly lower. Thus, based on the processed information, managers make very important decisions for the continuity of the organization's activity
