Celem artykułu jest przedstawienie badań dotyczących stanu wykorzystania finansowych systemów informatycznych oraz systemów CRM lub modułów ERP dotyczących zarządzania relacjami z klientami w zakresie wspierania relacji z klientami, w szczególności identyfikacji stanu zastosowania tych systemów w zależności od rodzaju przedsiębiorstwa w województwie podkarpackim. Zbadano też, czy system do zarządzania relacjami z klientami jest sprzężony z systemem finansowo-księgowym przedsiębiorstwa w zakresie importowania informacji o kientach, a także wskazano źródła pozyskiwania informacji o klientach. Z przeprowadzonych badań wynika, że system klasy CRM funkcjonuje w niemal 31% badanych przedsiębiorstw. W efekcie analizy tabel kontyngencji oraz weryfikacji istotności statystycznej badanych związków za pomocą testu niezależności chi-kwadrat potwierdzono, że rodzaj przedsiębiorstwa różnicuje badane podmioty pod względem stosowania systemów CRM (lub odpowiednich modułów ERP do zarządzania relacjami z klientami) w zakresie wspierania relacji z klientami. Równocześnie badania wykazały, że wykorzystywanie systemów do zarządzania relacjami z klientami ma związek ze wskazaniem pożądanych źródeł pozyskiwania informacji o klientach. Badania zapełniły lukę w wiedzy w zakresie wykorzystania systemów do zarządzania relacjami z klientami wśród przedsiębiorstw z województwa podkarpackiego.

The aim of the paper was to present research on the status for the use of financial information systems and CRM systems or ERP modules for customer relationship management to support customer relations, and in particular to identify the status of the use of these systems depending on the type of an enterprise in the Podkarpackie province (voivodeship). At the same time, the study examined whether the customer relationship management system was coupled with the enterprise's financial and accounting system in terms of importing customer information, and the sources of obtaining customer information were identified. On the basis of the research conducted, it should be stated that the CRM class system was functioning in almost 31% of the enterprises under the survey. As a result of the analysis of contingency tables and verification of statistical significance of the relationships studied, and using the chi-square independence test, it was confirmed that the type of enterprise diferentiated the entities in terms of the use of CRM systems (or the relevant ERP modules for customer relationship management) in supporting customer relations. At the same time, the study showed that the use of customer relationship management systems was related to the indication of the desired sources of customer information. The research filled a gap in knowledge about the use of customer relationship management systems in enterprises in the Podkarpackie province.
