What was the first ERP?
There is no single first ERP. The term "enterprise resource planning" was coined by the research firm Gartner in 1990. ERP grew out of the material requirements planning (MRP) systems of the 1960s and 1970s, which planned materials for manufacturing and were later extended to finance, sales and the rest of the business.
