A technical consultant is typically a programmer, who develops programs specified by functional consultant to fill gaps between business processes and ERP (eg. helps in customizing the ERP code).

 

These two roles are merging these days. To be competitive in ERP market, one needs to be both, functional and technical. Techno – Functional consultants are those who can handle both technical and functional roles of ERP.
