Currently, the presentation of these data are mostly by using the static table format of screen forms or reports, when the user face a lot of tables and digital numbers, it is not easy to realize the relationship between these numbers or tables and their meaning. In addition to the data collected by the ERP, managers also needs to establish the performance indicators. Therefore, how to make the data go through analysis and aggregation so that the data can create greater values is an important research issue of the ERP. This study proposes to process data by online analytical processing (OLAP) and information visualization (IV). We will show the steps of the analysis with the sales module data. The results show that the OLAP provides better user interactions and allows users to view data from different perspectives. IV provides multiple static and dynamic charts, makes the data easier to understand. User defined function of IV let the users to design business performance indicators and present the indicators in visualization. The use of interactive, dynamic and visual means of the data can make the data more quickly and correctly recognized and interpreted, so that the data can be the basis of management decision-making. The results of information visualization can also become a communication tool between organizations to improve the efficiency of communication.
