主权项

1. A method for executing enterprise resource planning software, the method comprising:
providing, by a computer system, for presentation, a choice among a plurality of modes in which to execute the enterprise resource planning software, wherein the plurality of modes comprises:
a test mode; anda production mode; receiving, by the computer system, a first selection of the test mode, wherein:
the test mode is linked with a test initialization file;the test initialization file is configured to cause the enterprise resource planning software to initialize the enterprise resource planning software for a fewer number of users than the production mode; initializing, by the computer system, the enterprise resource planning software using the test initialization file; receiving, by the computer system, a second selection of the production mode, wherein:
the production mode is linked with a production initialization file; and initializing, by the computer system, the enterprise resource planning software using the production initialization file.
