Working with SAP: Navigating and Reporting with the SAP S/4 HANA and FIORI GUIs

This book provides detailed, step-by-step instructions on the general procedures that are used to navigate in SAP – that is, to move from screen to screen and utilize the various tools that are found on them – and to generate reports, which is one of the most common and important uses of this software. Furthermore, it provides these instructions for the two GUIs (graphical user interfaces) that are available for SAP: the traditional standard GUI of the S/4 HANA system, and the new, easy-to-use FIORI GUI.

This book does not bog down the learner with technical information on SAP or the hardware that supports it: Rather, it offers simple, straight forward instructions, blissfully free of geeky computer jargon, on the best practices for end users of SAP. These instructions have been honed by 21 years of teaching by the author, and they are presented in a simple, easy to read and use format.

This book is written for non-technical end users of SAP: the millions of accountants and clerks, administrative assistants, purchasing and sales agents, warehouse operators and others in corporate and government offices who have no special computer skills but who use the SAP ERP software to conduct their daily business. Simply put: this book will teach them everything they need to know to use SAP.
