Apply filter to any array of objects in Jquery

There are two ways of doing it.

1. You may use jQuery.grep():

var found_names = $.grep(names, function(v) {
    return v.name === "Joe" && v.age < 30;
});

DEMO: http://jsfiddle.net/ejPV4/

2.You can do this very easily with the [].filter method:

var filterednames = names.filter(function(obj) {
    return (obj.name === "Joe") && (obj.age < 30);
});

You will need to add a shim for browsers that don't support the [].filter method: this MDN page gives such code.

What are the top ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) software for any business? List here

Lets try to understand the term ERP first.

ERP can be defined as: a business process management software that allows an organization to use a system of integrated applications to manage the business and automate many back office functions related to technology, services and human resources.

ERP can provide : Product lifecycle management, supply chain management (for example purchasing, manufacturing and distribution), warehouse management, customer relationship management (CRM), sales order processing, online sales, financials, human resources, and decision support system.

Technically : Normally ERP systems use the same database throughout an entire company to store various types of data for different computerized functions. When first developed, ERP systems were used only for large manufacturing companies. It can also allow integration of other software/tools for automation.

Workflows	Asynchronous	Asynchronous/ Synchronous(Real time). The existing workflow execution model that supports asynchronous workflows has been extended to support real-time (synchronous) workflows. Real-time workflows are not queued, as was the case with asynchronous workflows, but execute immediately on-demand or in response to a message being processed by the execution pipeline. Real-time workflows participate in the database transaction and perform similar functionality to plug-ins, yet can be created by a non-developer through the web application workflow designer. Developers can still create real-time workflow through code.	Asynchronous/ Synchronous(Real time)
Duplicate Detection Rule	Available	Removed	Removed

If the definition of the action needs to change due to changing business priorities, someone who is not a developer can edit the action using the application workflow designer. Since these actions are available through web service calls, they can be used from both inside the application using a command action or from external applications.	Available
