5.0 out of 5 stars good book... a comprehensive reference, June 11, 2004

It's very well organized and detailed. The authors don't leave anything in vague terms - they explain it all. There aren't really any other books on this topics, so it's not hard to say that this is the best one. this book was all i needed to get started since programming skills are not needed. Actually I kind of use this book as a guide to avoid programming altogether. I definitely recommend it.

As usual SAP PRESS has done an excellent job with this book. About 90% is excellent to the point that taking an SAP class is really NOT necessary so save your money. Class instructions really will not assist you further anyhow. The 10% that falls short is in examples that would be better served with either more direct screen prints or less verbage.
