ERP Systems
I am finishing up a case study on a company switching to an ERP system. This sentence is between two quotes about the benefits of the new ERP system. I cannot figure out the relationship between the two parts of the sentence (before and after comma). Also, if anyone has good suggestions for 伝票 in this context I would be grateful since accounting/financial systems are outside of my specialty.

Firstly, 伝票 usually refers to some hardcopy paper slip, such as a sales slip, voucher, etc.
If "ERP" here refers to Electronic Retail Payment System, then probably "sales slip" would do in this case.
As for your sentence, the very end of it seemed to get chopped off. Anyway, I guess the gist of it is that whereas previously the sales slips were filled out a stack at a time (all at once), the detailed transaction information can now be filled in at the point of data entry, as the transaction occurs (one at a time?). This would obviously mean that the accounting information can be maintained in a more timely manner, etc.
Depending on how you fit it into the other 2 quotes you mentioned, this could be something along the lines of:
(Under this new system)..., the ability to enter detailed accounting information at the point of data entry, where previously the sales slips had to be filled out in batches, (all at once, etc.), brings several benefits....(namely....)
I'm sure you'll probably be able to phrase it more smoothly than that, but that's the general idea....
HTH :-)

Comment: "Thank you for your help KathyT. This phrase makes me feel as if a verb was dropped from the first half, but perhaps this is just showing a weakness in my grammar."

I am not sure why the last six characters got chopped off.
