I recently completed my CIPS Level 4 Certificate in Procurement and Supply. During my studies, I learned the importance of defining business needs before choosing an ERP system. I am now exploring Odoo and want to understand how to select the right features for my business.

Every organization has different goals. Some focus on procurement, others on finance or supplier management. The first step is to review current processes and find performance gaps. These gaps help identify the essential ERP features.

I would like to know how others identify the right ERP functions. How do you decide which features are most important? If anyone has used CIPS learning material or resources like Pass4Future for CIPS ERP learning material, please share your experience.
