MAIN BODY
Categories of information system
Information system is proper, sociotechnical, structural systems which is meant for
collection, process, store and distribution of information. This have fore component task which
are defined as task, people, structure and technology (Thakur, 2016). It can also said as an study
of system with special preference to complementary network of hardware and software that
people of the origination can use its tools in fulfilment of their needs and obligation to
environment. An IT system in firm achieves various parts which are users, processors, storage,
inputs, outputs and the aforementioned communication networks. There are number of
information system which can be used by firm in getting benefit of their quality some of these
are mentioned below:
Transaction Processing System (TPS)

This is the system which is used to operate business transactions which are related to
business transaction of day to day level which are mainly consist of transaction related to
operational management. The main objective of this transaction is to identify what is the sale of
today’s product, what are the inventory left in origination and what is the outstanding amount of
today. There all will be recorded in it that’s what this is called as recorder of day to day business
transaction recorder (Shen, Chen and Wang, 2016). It will also assist the manager in making
decision regarding the order of raw material. For instance this can be seen in back where if any
person want lone the database of its previous transaction will be checked for indenting its lone
worthiness. This system mainly includes point sale system, payroll management, stock control
management and airline booking system.
Management Information System (MIS)
Management Information Systems (MIS) are used by tactical managers to monitor the
organization's current performance status. The output from a transaction processing system is
used as input to a management information system. this can be used by firm as the data collect in
first IT type will used as the main data for analysing situation of firm product and what is needed
to firm for getting improvement in its product. This system includes sales management sate,
Budgeting system and human resources management system. Those systems provide information
needed for infective utilization of resources with the ain to maximise profit of firm. Tactical
managers are responsible for the semi-structured decision. MIS systems provide the information
needed to make the structured decision and based on the experience of the tactical managers,
they make judgement calls
Decision Support System (DSS)
Decision support systems are used by senior management to make non-routine decisions.
This is the system which used by top level executives when they have to market non routine
decision related to firm product and profitability. Decision support systems use input from
internal systems (transaction processing systems and management information systems) and
external systems. This will address the qualities like what is the impact of doubling operation of
firm in global market (Usman, Ahmad and Zakariya, 2016). Decision support systems habit

cultured mathematical models, and statistical methods to afford answers, and they are very
interactive. There are two major example of performance management system which is financial
planning system and bank lone management system.
Artificial intelligence techniques in business
It can be said as using of computer bring which have fetchers like human brain. it is the
mimic of human expertise to identify smart patterns in large data set. There are many companies
like Facebook, amazon, and Google are using this technology of AI in there firm to facilitate
change in there working environment and improving smoothness I there firms work. For instance
Facebook have the strong AI as it identify number of people who’s not meted for time in life.
Other multinational company amazon uses this as for identifying needs of customers.
EPR system
In 1990, this concept was first oriented, at that time it includes material requirement
planning and after some time it also started manufacturing resources planning with computer
integration in manufacturing sectors and within some time it become the lager used software in
terms of business operations (Masa'deh, Mufleh and Alrowwad, 2017). It have initially focused
on automation of back office work but name it have its place in all function of organization there
are number of fetchers which this application software use, the priming function of this system it
to ensure the perfect implication of different number of function in origination which also
facilitate firm in getting access to coordination among the staff of firm. ERP system is that
system which is consists of tools which are used in business management and managing different
kinds of activities this is the function which can use in performing different number of activity
which are storing collecting, making and interpretation data to store. This have all its working
on data base management where help form in analysing its data here firm can use number of
function to perform task of firms data management tis tool is includes number if stagy each are
important for decrying the total of customer needs the leg of firm and taste of it employee, there
is several part which an employee can enjoy here. There is lain ganged of tools which will be
included in this function, this tools are methods which are require by any law or legal
requirement which have to perform within origination. Enterprise resources planning (EPR) is
that procedure which is related to firm performance by integrating its different management

function in a common software. This is software which delivers methodical assistance to firm in

corporation become more self-aware by linking information about the production, finance,
distribution, and human resources together. Because it connects different technologies used by
each part of a business, an ERP application can eliminate costly duplicate and incompatible
technology. The process often integrates accounts payable, stock control systems, order-
monitoring systems, and customer databases into one system.

Reporting and Planning and Total Visibility.
CONCLUSION
From the above report it can be concluded that firm have different impact of this system
on their business but there are more positive impact than negative one. If firm use all the system
and strategy of information practices like Transaction Processing System, Management
Information System, Decision Support System (DSS) and Artificial intelligence techniques in
business this all will facilitate a firm in enhancing its operation in global context and can use this
system as an opportunity for making competitive advantage of it. In reference to this firm
achieve to if there is lack of coordination between different department of firm and it have to
coordinate with each of the department than it has to use third function for effective utilization of
