How long does it take to train staff on a new ERP?

Training time varies significantly by role. Finance users need 2-4 weeks of hands-on training. Operations and inventory users typically need 1-2 weeks. Occasional users (sales staff, managers reviewing reports) typically need 1-3 days. Full productivity is usually achieved 3-6 months after go-live as staff encounter edge cases and build muscle memory with the new system.
