Good on implementating, Introduction on system
It is a good book for the neophyte or someone who is considering implementing or in the beginning stages of an implementation. Actually, it is a terrific choice if you fall in this group.
If you are looking for an in depth analysis of the system, or a user manual, then forget about it, it is excessively simple in these aspects.

Essential reading for the post-Dotcom times!!
Although SAP is out of spotlight since lat year, everone knows there are lots of SAP projects out there, both new, upgrades etc.; without refering to any particular SAP project, this book distills a lot of practical details and wisdom from numerous SAP projects. It should be useful not only to key-users, consultants and, of-course, Project Managers but also for anyone presently evaluating ERPs vis-a-vis e-commerce, CRM projects etc. Now that the hype has gone out of ERPs, Kale's book will put ERPs in perspectives vis-a-vis other areas & dev. in IT/ IS like the latest CRM, SCM, Enterprise Portals, NetMarkets etc. Read this book to understand why ERP will continue to be the essential backbone for all businesses. Comprehensive and also good as ready reference for any SAP implementation.
