Resumo: The general objective of this work was to study the contribution of the ERP for the quality of the managerial accounting information, through the perception of managers of large sized Brazilian companies. The initial principle was that, presently, we live in an enterprise reality characterized by global and competitive worldwide scenery where the information about the enterprise performance and the evaluation of the intangible assets are necessary conditions for the survival of the companies. The research of the exploratory type is based on a sample of 37 managers of large sized Brazilian companies. The analysis of the data treated by means of the qualitative method showed that the great majority of the companies of the sample (86%) possess an ERP implanted. It also showed that this system is used in combination with other applicative software. The managers, in its majority, were also satisfied with the information generated in relation to the dimensions Time and Content. However, with regard to the qualitative nature of the information, the ERP made some analysis possible when the Balanced Scorecard was adopted, but information able to provide an estimate of the investments carried through in the intangible assets was not obtained. These results suggest that in these companies ERP systems are not adequate to support strategic decisions.Key-words: Enterprise Resource Planning ERP. Accounting information. Intangible assets.

Se partió del principio de que se vive en una realidad empresarial caracterizada por un panorama mundial globalizado y competitivo en el que las informaciones sobre el desempeño empresarial y sobre la evaluación de los intangibles, son condiciones necesarias para la supervivencia de las empresas. La investigación de carácter exploratorio se fundamenta en una muestra compuesta por 37 gestores de grandes empresas brasileñas. El análisis de los datos, tratados por medio del método cualitativo, permitió comprobar que la gran mayoría de las empresas de la muestra (86%) tiene un ERP implantado y también que este sistema se utiliza en combinación con otros softwares aplicativos. Los gestores, también en su mayoría, se consideraban satisfechos con las informaciones generadas con relación a las dimensiones Tiempo y Contenido. No obstante, en lo que se refiere a la naturaleza cualitativa de la información, el ERP posibilitó algún análisis cuando se adoptó el Balanced Scorecard, pero no se obtuvieron informaciones capaces de proporcionar un valor estimativo de las inversiones realizadas en los intangibles. Estos resultados sugieren que en esas empresas los sistemas ERP no son adecuados para sustentar decisiones estratégicas. Por lo expuesto, la cuestión que permanece es: ¿esas informaciones no existen porque los gestores desconocen el potencial de estos sistemas para tal fin, o porque consideran que esas informaciones no son relevantes para la gestión de sus empresas? Palavras clave: Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP). Información contable. Activos intangibles.O objetivo geral deste trabalho foi estudar a contribuição do ERP para a qualidade da informação contábil gerencial, por meio da percepção de gestores de grandes empresas brasileiras. Partiu-se do princípio que se vive em uma realidade empresarial caracterizada por um cenário mundial globalizado e competitivo no qual as informações a respeito do desempenho empresarial e sobre a avaliação dos ativos intangíveis são condições necessárias para a sobrevivência das empresas. A pesquisa do tipo exploratória está baseada em uma amostra composta por 37 gestores de grandes empresas brasileiras. A análise dos dados, tratados por meio do método qualitativo, permitiu verificar que a maioria das empresas da amostra (86%) possui implantado um ERP e, também, que esse sistema é utilizado em combinação com outros softwares aplicativos. Os gestores, em sua maioria, consideraram-se satisfeitos com as informações geradas e relacionadas com as dimensões Tempo e Conteúdo. Porém, quanto à natureza qualitativa da informação, o ERP possibilitou alguma análise quando foi adotado o Balanced Scorecard, mas não foram obtidas informações capazes de se ter uma estimativa dos investimentos realizados nos ativos intangíveis. Esses resultados sugerem que nessas empresas os sistemas ERP não estão adequados para suportarem as decisões de natureza estratégica.Palavras-chave: Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP).
