Several decades ago logistical computer programs were offered on the market. They must meet the needs of operational management with the ability to foresee effects of their business ventures, in which flow of data and direction of management are systematized and automated in business logistics. Even many years ago, the success of these measures was undeniable. This success is due as well to the efficiency predicted by logistical computer programs. Two totally opposite theses dominate the discussion, and at the same time, illuminate the space between them: 􀁸 There is not only ONE satisfactory logistical computer program 􀁸 EVERY logistical computer program is good1 Operational investigations of these facts lead to interesting, but sometimes raw results. Accordingly, it is completely clear that it is possible to come to opposing conclusions depending on one’s point of view. Namely, the first thesis pushes the limits of logistical computer program. The second thesis covers measurable factors of business success. A short review of the history of data processing makes it possible, through historical connections, to understand the realistic limits and productive possibilities of logistical computer programs. These investigations consider both individual and standard computer programs, but by choosing the logistical type, one argument takes only standard software into account.
