Implementing SAP BusinessObjects Global Trade Services
Description
You know that doing business internationally requires you to keep track of, and be in compliance with, myriad regulations, tariffs, documents, security measures, and laws. Because many of the rules and regulations are constantly in flux (many processes change on a yearly basis, at minimum), and new ones are constantly being added, organizations like yours are constantly trying to adapt by remaking your processes on the fly. While SAP provides a robust solution in the form of SAP BusinessObjects Global Trade Services, even it can't solve all of your problems without some customization.
This book provides you with a rapid implementation guide for SAP BusinessObjects Global Trade Services, focused on how to use pre-delivered configurations and the "mature" functions and features to deliver an expandable GTS solution very quickly.
The primary purpose of the book is to provide implementation team members, implementation project managers, technical teams, and consultants with a practical guide to rapidly implementing and configuring GTS. You'll learn everything you need to know to implement and configure SAP BusinessObjects Global Trade Services quickly, effectively, and ready to customize for your business.
