Integrating CATS, second edition is a practical Essentials guide that provides detailed, up-to-date instruction on how to use CATS effectively through integration with a variety of SAP ERP 6.0 components, including HCM, Financials, Materials Management, Plant Maintenance, and more.
The book will teach SAP users how to get the most out of CATS for their specific need whether it is in the area of accounting, HR, plant maintenance, or material management, etc. It will explain how to integrate CATS with key SAP ERP 6.0 components, and provide up-to-date information on changes, including new coverage of using feature CATEX to determine which data requires approval, and the new ERP 6.0 Workflow tasks. In addition, the book will provide new information on creating data entry profiles for Employee Self Services using WebDynpro instead of ITS, and new screens showing approval through the portal feature CATEX. The book will also include new coverage on time reporting and approvals with ESS and MSS. The core coverage of the book will remain the same and will continue to provide users with the basics they need for customizing and enhancing the key functions of CATS.
