Question

求英语大神帮忙翻译一下，谢谢啦

ERP systems are large. As one measure of their size, Quantum’s implementation of
Oracle’s ERP application reportedly has over 40,000 tables (e.g., O’Leary, 2000). In addition,
increasingly, ERP implementations are accompanied by large data warehouses, and designed
to facilitate data access and improve the reporting capabilities. Because of their size and cost,
companies can benefit from substantial knowledge management efforts.
As a result of all of these developments, knowledge management systems are emerging as
important tools to support ERP systems. Accordingly, the purpose of this paper is to discuss
some of these knowledge management system developments across the entire ERP life cycle
of choosing, implementing, and using ERP systems.

Answer 1

ERP系统都是非常庞大的。从一个方面可以看到他们的庞大，据报道，在昆腾公司实施的甲骨文ERP应用使用了超过4万长数据库表（例如，O’Leary，2000）。另外，ERP实施通常伴随大型数据仓库，并且设计为适宜于数据操作和改善报表能力。因为ERP的大小和成本，公司能够从实际的管理效果上获得好处。
因为这样，所有的开发，知识管理系统都被合并为支持ERP系统的重要工具。相应的，这篇论文的目的是讨论这些知识管理系统的开发在整个ERP生命周期中是如何去选择，实施和使用ERP系统的。
