ERP systems are strong in the areas of production, distribution, accounting, finance, and human resources - but they reach their limits when it comes to export controls. Experience shows that export control functionalities are best managed with specialised programmes connected through standardised interfaces rather than directly in a company's ERP system. AEB's new white paper introduces the four fundamental pillars of export controls: sanction list screening, embargo checks, critical goods screening, and end-use checks. It details what exactly companies are required to check and what role IT systems play in ensuring global trade compliance. It also helps businesses to determine whether their ERP system is up to the export controls challenge, based on ten practical tips and a useful check list. Does the system automatically block deliveries once certain export control parameters are met? Are ad-hoc queries from sanction list possible from within the ERP system (for example when entering data for new customers) and is screening automatically taking place in the background of all transactions?
