5.0 out of 5 stars A treasure chest of SAP Sales and Distribution Knowledge, April 16, 2008

This review is from: Implementing SAP ERP Sales & Distribution (Paperback)

The author has done a brilliant job in this 2nd Edition. He explains the differences of mySAP ERP SD, its new functionality, and includes topics relevant to the ECC5 and ECC6 versions of SAP. He covers tools like SAP Query and the book is full of time saving tips and advice.

There is an appendix of nearly every transaction code related to SD, as well as in depth steps on how to configure the backbone of SD in SAP, that is pricing, sales documents, Basic functions etc. This book also has brief information on peripheral integration topics such as EDI and user exits in SAP SD.

This book is far better than his previous best seller, with better print and screenshots, I would definitely recommend it to anyone who is looking for a book explaining how to configure SAP SD, and to advanced users of the SD module.

Worth every penny, if you're learning SAP SD. I've purchased three SAP SD books and this is by far the best.

4.0 out of 5 stars handbook, July 26, 2010

This handbook is clear and consider a lot of SD aspects. Good to read for SD beginners such as me, but a SAP background is required (as any hand books).
