In recent years, Supply Chain Management (SCM) has become one of the most widely discussed issues on top management`s agenda. One essential precondition for the implementation of SCM concepts are powerful information systems. Many manufacturing companies deploy the logistics modules of the SAP R/3 system. In 1997 SAP enlarged its focus beyond Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems and started an SCM initiative, which resulted in the Advanced Planner and Optimizer (APO) system. Today, APO has become one of the main components of the mySAP.com solutions. This book describes the principles and methods of intra- and inter-company SCM with reference to Release 4.6 of the SAP R/3 and to Release 3.0 of the SAP APO system. It also discusses potential future developments of these widely used software systems. The final chapter of the book contains an annotated overview of the most valuable online resources dealing with SCM. Review: Five Stars - excellent Review: Absolutely Recommended !! - As leader of a customer dervice dept. in a company who just implemented SAP, I can only recommend this book. Not only because its relevance to SAP users, but also because it is a very easy to read and excellent written introduction to modern supply chain management and it's basic functions and challenges. No matter if you use SAP or not, you will like this book if you are beginning to deal with supply chain improvements from a basic level. Read this before any other supply chain book and then compare. I am sure you will come back to this publication over and over again.

Supply Chain Management Based on SAP Systems
You do not need to buy new one, just buy used one if you want to know supply chain management.

Poorly written
I purchased this book to understand how SAP manages the supply chain, but am pretty disappointed with it. The book apparently was translated from German and is not well written. It feels like the majority of the book is sited from other sources (there are 17 pages of references if this gives you any hint). They will throw five quotes into the same paragraph in some cases. This makes the book very hard to read, it just doesn't flow. Snipits are inserted that really don't fit. It feels like the author's don't really have anything to contibute, they just grabbed other quotes and through a book together. I will probably resell this book and find one that actually makes sense when you read it. Sorry, but I recommend looking elsewhere if you actually want to learn something.
