4.0 out of 5 stars Flying Start with SAP R/3, March 4, 2001

This review is from: Flying Start SAP R/3: A Guide to Get You Up and Running (Paperback)

Great layout and colour format. I feel this is the book you need from day one of working with SAP R/3 to impress your employer. The first half of the book is very easy to get through and is also easily understandable where ever you are in the organisation. However the majority of the second half of the book relies heavily on HR scenarios, which is not mentioned in the 'Editorial Review'. If you are within the HR activity this is excellent. Not to say the book falls down at this point. The scenarios are transferable but it might have been better to include examples from other areas such as Warehouse Management or to mention the HR perspective in the Editorial Review.
