Waz' SAP!

"Waz' SAP?" sounded like "What's up?"

"What's up?" may imply what's new?

"Waz' SAP?" may be formally written as "What's SAP?"

What is SAP?

I have been browsing the net to look for an overview of SAP which I keep on hearing from a friend who works in a consulting firm.

SAP may not be new but definitely it's a new approach in doing business especially for those which are so scared to try an ERP System.

I learned that an ERP sytem is an encompassing system for all process of a company.

Consulting my IT friend, ERP is like a planning system for the company to optimize its resources.

Imagine, the company will know how much raw materials will be needed to produce a targetted quantity of products without having too much of an inventory? My friend told me that SAP (like any other ERP systems) helps the company to forecast and maximize the use of inventory (among many others).

I do not fully understand how SAP works but if I were an owner of a company, I would like to have an optimal way of doing things.

That's SAP to me! Ooops, I mean, that's up to me!
