The target segment for this book appears to be prospective SAP Consultants aspiring to be involved in implementation of projects, personnel in the Implementing organisation whose services will be used in implementation and end user. These days many people get trained/ acquire knowledge in SAP modules such as FI-CO, Logistics, SD, HRMS, etc by attending training courses in various Computer Training Institutes. Some even work as Trainee Consultants in some organisations. The real-life Implementation experience is all together different from what these people learn in Institutes. I feel that this book will be certainly helpful to fill such gap between real-life Implementation exp and learnings. At least, the book will enable the reader what to do when he is put in the project for the first time. Good points abt this book: 1. It gives good view of R/3 architecture 2. Giving ideas about possible Implementation issues that can arise 3. Inputs for preparing a good SAPper CV 4. Employment opportunities in SAP. Negative points: Jack of all, master of none! Inadequate coverage of various modules, which is understandable! Conclusion: The user level is mentioned as Intermediate to Advanced in the back cover, but I feel that this book is only suitable to Beginners to Intermediate level.
Rating: ![1 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-1-0.gif) Summary: A useless book for recycling Review: this is a book totally useless. It tells you nothing! 1. I doubt the author is from Germany because I got big language problem when trying to understand the sentences. The author loved to make long sentences which confused me all the time. 2. The author just tells you what SAP can do, this is absolutely not what I want. People can learn this from newspaper or review or advertisement. what people want to know is how to use SAP or how to implement, install it. actually the book tells nothing. 3. the quality is bad. I got a book, of which 200 pages were printed in Yellow paper, 100 pages were printed in grey paper. The index on each page of chapter 17 was printed as "chapter 18". 4. I am totally disappointed. now I know why SAP is difficult to learn, the reference book made so!

Review: Using SAP R/3 is as close to a definitive guide to the SAP product and market as we will ever see. There is a great interview with the author at http://www.softwarejobs.com/sap/sap74.html. I highly suggest reading it!
Rating: ![1 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-1-0.gif) Summary: The first book I have ever regreted purchasing in my life ! Review: When I read the other reviews I thought to my self "c'mon, it cant be that bad" Surprise ! It was even worse that I had imagined. Nothing, absolutely nothing but a huge commercial about what SAP does, but not a single word on HOW it does it, how we, the users can get the system to do all that. I bought it because I needed it,since I'm working on SAP right now and was desperately trying to find help, but it was worthless. Same thing can be said for "Administering SAP R/3: The FI Financial Accounting and Controlling Module" which is nothing but an excerpt of it's bigger brother Using SAP, and about. By the way, I gave it one star because the cero stars option wasn't available.
