SAP(R) R/3 Implementation Guide

Summary: Excellent final user manual
Review: In few words: If you are not a SAP consultant (and you are not expected to be so) and you need to take up working on SAP as a final user next monday: read this book. On monday, this easy to read book, will allow you to show off as an experienced SAP user. The explantions "on the screen" showed by the book let you directly to the outcome you are looking for: to easily perform usual tasks in order entering, price updating, production planning, and so on.

Summary: Ecxcellent Overview on how SAP Integrates Business Systems
Review: It is tough to find good books on SAP. Quantity seems to dominate rather than quality since every one wants to jump on the gravy train. This book is a definite exception in the pot-pourri of inferior writing currently on the book shelves. The authors take the reader lucidly thru various aspects of implementing different SAP modules and stress the benefits accrued in implementing SAP. This book will not give you a comprehensive treatment of any one module of SAP; it rather helps you in understanding SAP by explaining how it can improve business operations and why it is a better return on information. I recommend this book to get a good understanding of SAP but dont waste your dollars if you want speciality treatment of a particular track.

Summary: It's good for beginners.
Review: One of the best books in the market that clearly describes execution of the step by step business processes in very simple language using a real life-like scenario. The book also provides an excellent overview of IMG. I would strongly urge the auther to consider writing books for individual functionalities, i.e., MM, QM, etc. with greater detail.

Summary: Intermediate bood book for SAP people
Review: The book covers many SAP modules for implementation. It may gives the SAP designers some ideas about the integrated SAP system. For learners, it presents many screens that are useful to practice, if they have some ideas about SAP. This book is good. But the book lacks summary generalization about integration of different modules, just because it wants to cover so many modules. Therefore, it is suitable to intermediate SAP persons. Learners may feel confused.

Summary: Simple enough for the basics of SAP
Review: This book is excellent as an introductory guide that covers most of the modules with graphic illustration. It is useful if you are a new user to SAP or an experience consultant to prepare your training materials. Since the books covers version 3.x, I am expecting a new edition for version 4.x. As usual, this book is weak in IMG (Implementation Guide).

Summary: Good take you through the type book.
Review: This is the first book that covers the major modules from the user point of view, indirectly covering the implementors responsibilities. It gives the navigations to the required screens so that the learners can practice the things taught. I recommend this book very strongly to the learners as well as managers who wants to know the full scope of the SAP R/3 system. I did read a few books on SAP and this would have saved me a lot of time if I would have read it first.

Summary: excellent introduction and more
Review: this is the one and only book about sap which covers its complexity in a logical manner. i highly recommend it both for novices and pros, users and implementers -- and mostly for consultants with a keen interest in general and specific business processes.
