Integration Management with SAP R/3

This book is intended to serve as a companion to SAP® R/3-based lectures covering cost accounting, materials management and production planning/MRP. Throughout the course of the book, students implement a case study in a manufactoring company, covering master data entry and the customization of the system through to the company´s business process and finally to the operational use of the system.

A host of free, Web-based materials may be used in conjunction with the book which include transparencies for class-room use, trainers for Entity-Relationship Modeling (ERM), Event-Driven Process Chains (EPC), as well as a case study based on the book suitable for independent implementation by students to re-enforce the lessons learnt. This material is available at http:\\erp.wu-wien.ac.at

The intended audience is students of applied computing science (Wirtschaftsinformatik) or business administration with a focus on business organization or production management. Also practitioners, who want a hands-on 'first look' at ERP, notably SAP® R/3 software will find this book a must.
