BASIC APPROACH PLEASE PROVIDE COURSE INFORMATION
Using SAP's leading enterprise software product R/3 as a backdrop, the book clearly demonstrates how common business process can be defined and then reengineered for maximum value. This new edition explains SAP's latest R/3 releases and strategic initiatives in language that's easy to understand and apply. It begins with a Business Engineering section that sketches the "big picture" for high-level decision makers, helping them understand the major features and tools of the latest R/3 release, and the key issues associated with its implementation. Next, the Process Design section introduces R/3's applications in specific fields such as sales, production, finance, and human resources. Finally, the Architecture, Framework, and Tools section provides up-to-date, detailed implementation help for IT professionals.

Thomas Curran is President of Component Software (Cambridge, MA), which produces desktop ERP applications. He worked for five years as technology strategist for SAP AG. Andrew Ladd is Director of Communications for Component Software, Inc., for whom he was written numerous white papers and technical documents.
