Learn how best to implement the New General Ledger in SAP ERP Financials and how to maximize your organization's use of its vast functionalities.

Using practical examples, the authors take you on a guided tour of the most important functions. First, you'll learn how to create the settings needed to define your ledgers. Then, you'll uncover sample solutions and customization tips for segment reporting and document splitting, as the authors show you the process of mapping a parallel accounting procedure using the ledger approach.

2.0 out of 5 stars Typical SAP sort of explains half the topics, September 23, 2008
This review is from: New General Ledger in SAP ERP Financials (Hardcover)
It's questionable if adequate. Topics are vaguely covered, probably better material if you were completely in tune with the concepts from the SAP system development point of view rather then the mechanics of getting a system to truely work on the ground. Disappointed in the book. Felt it could of had more practical discussions of the new GL features to practical scenarios.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good book - expensive like all theothers from SAP Press, September 21, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: New General Ledger in SAP ERP Financials (Hardcover)
This book had a good amount of technical information but is geared more to understanding the New GL instead of "how to" setting it up. More examples with options would make this book better. The price is high but that is usual for SAP Press. I would recommend the book for beginner to intermediate level FI consultants but advise others to buy it used if possible for a lower price.
