Good basics but leaves many questions open,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Customizing Materials Management with SAP ERP Operations (Hardcover)
Basic concepts are well explained but the book lacks the DESIRE to give you a deep understanding with industry best practices and real life applications. Very factual and dry descriptions, LOTS of repetions, but it doesn't seem to want to go beyond the surface. Many times I felt that the auther just tries to fill pages with little material and large fonts. Comparing this book to, say, "Implementing SAP ERP Sales & Distribution" by Glynn C. Williams (another one of my recent reads), the difference is night and day. I am somewhat dissappointed, this book is not the best value. All that being said, I have to admit, I learned a lot from it.

This review is from: Customizing Materials Management with SAP ERP Operations (Hardcover)
First, the introduction to MM was very helpful and I learned much about the basic materials management set up in SAP. However, I had expected to learn more about the MM process rather than other Supply Chain processes.
Second,I felt the book was heavy on invoicing and procurement process rather than materials related process. I am not an SAP consultant, but a materials manager who will be implementing and supporting SAP MM in the near future. Third, I would have liked to see more on forecasting with SAP and how to link hard and soft demand to that forecast to drive down to a component level in manufacturing. I also expected to learn more on lead time management, safety stock calculations and min/max planning in SAP. I also needed to understand how SAP manages expensed materials.

Excellent SAP MM book - You must buy,

This review is from: Customizing Materials Management with SAP ERP Operations (Hardcover)
Earlier I have read few other books on SAP MM, but all those books were for more end users. This book is really good reference book for SAP consultant, super users and for business process owners.
The most interested thing is author has explained the Business Process scenario and then process steps (how to run the process in SAP) and later on the configuration for each process. I really got now better understanding and knowledge of pricing procedure and automatic account determination, specially the way diagrams are made it directly gets into the head and it makes a clear image about all these complicated areas of SAP MM. I would recommend all the readers to buy this book and also recommend this book. If we all readers community will buy and promote this kind of nice book, than only authers will get confidence and write more books. Really appriciate the efforts.
