5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Source for leaning how to configure Project System, November 29, 2008
This review is from: SAP® Project System Handbook (Essential Skills (McGraw Hill)) (Paperback)
I have read this book cover-to-cover. I recommend it to anyone who is seriously interested in learning how to configure and use the Project System (PS) component of SAP R/3. It is a concise, easy-to-read, and extremely instructive guide to using PS and I believe it should be a MUST-HAVE for anyone who works with the Project System. It employs an approach that I wish were modeled in other books about R/3 configuration.

While reading this book and with a smll bit of prior knowledge about PS, I was able to configure a project from scratch, including related configuration work in the IMG. It is the best source for an R/3 product that I have encountered and having taught SAP R/3 Configuration for 8 years and taken over 63 days of SAP Americas' R/3 training, I think this says a lot.

I wish there were books like this about such topics as variant configuration, SCM, SNC, and APO: it would have made it a lot easier for me to have learned about configuring these products.

Caveat: I do not know how this book would be for someone who has never worked with R/3 but I also do not think anyone interested in the Project System would be in that situation.

2.0 out of 5 stars Very Dissapointed from a user perspective, March 15, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: SAP® Project System Handbook (Essential Skills (McGraw Hill)) (Paperback)
As a user of PS i was very dissapointed in this book and I would not recommend it to anyone with limited knowledge or wanting to learn how to use PS from a user perspective.

The project builder which I believe is one of the main components of PS only receives a cursory look in the book.The building of a WBS structure showing hierarchies etc had no suitable examples and was only briefly touched on.

4.0 out of 5 stars Easy to understand the topics, April 14, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: SAP® Project System Handbook (Essential Skills (McGraw Hill)) (Paperback)
The book is well written and easy to understand, though the book does not cover all topics of SAP Project System.
Further, it is written from PS user point of view and can be kept as a easy reference.
