First Steps in SAP S/4HANA

Are you working with SAP software for the first time, or are you switching from SAP ERP and are confronted with SAP S/4HANA for the first time? Then this quick start guide with its concise overview of the functional scope and a clear introduction to the new SAP Fiori user interface is right for you. Clarify the terms ERP, HANA and S/4HANA, as well as the two licensing options for S/4HANA, on-premise and cloud. You will learn about the essential integrated business processes and how they are mapped in SAP S/4HANA using the Fiori apps. To do this, the authors take you through the modules related to logistics, such as materials management, sales and distribution, and production planning and control, and then demonstrate the integration with financial accounting and controlling. You will learn about the most important functions as well as organizational and master data objects, and by the end of the book you will also know which components are assigned to each module. Finally, using case studies, you will walk step by step through the three most important end-to-end processes in SAP S/4HANA: Order to Cash, Purchase to Pay and Forecast to Fulfill.
