SAP Business One is a fully integrated enterprise resource planning software solution, which encompasses business areas such as: finance, sales, purchasing, stock management, servicing, production and human resources. Essentially the software solution provides the range of functions required by the SMBs and improves operational efficiency as well as reducing cost base. In addition, the software features a high level of integration as well as navigation options within the functional areas. The great strength of SAP Business One is in its extreme flexibility to meet the different needs of SMBs. Different tools are provided for the customer and the consultant for use in adapting processes to fulfil the requirements of the individual business (for example, user-defined fields and tables, SQL queries and software development kit).

SAP Business One is getting ERP market share, especially among small and mid-size companies. Chicago area is good soil for SB1 distribution modules: Inventory, Production, MRP, Service, Opportunity Management (or think as CRM) should be a good fit for Chicago area nationwide distribution companies. This ERP also has excellent fit for branches of international businesses, as it seamlessly supports such international features as multi language, multicurrency, also it is localized in most of the South America and so, if you have branch there, it can be quickly put on SB1 and we could establish simple upstream financial data consolidation to your corporate ERP, which could be more upscale ERP package. Let’s take a look at SB1 and highlight important features:

1. Implementation Cycle. It is quicker, than average for competitors – and it should be attributable to the fact, that SB1 was developed relatively recently and, as so – it deploys all the modern application features, including wizards: Payment Wizard, MRP Wizard, etc.

2. Simple intuitive interface. When you are thinking about such processes as Manufacturing, you probably imagine how difficult is to implement something like Production module. However in the case of SB1 it is not like this. Each module in SB1 is intuitive – if you are familiar with Manufacturing routines, you should be able to recognize screens in SB1 by doing self discovery and if required reading supporting manual and related documents

3. Data export. You can virtually export everything to MS Excel – and you know that Excel is the most favorite tools for accounting oriented people

Software:- Software developed during one unit of time is referred to as an iteration, which typically lasts from two to four weeks. Each iteration passes through a full software development cycle, including planning, requirements analysis, design, writing unit tests, then coding until the unit tests pass and a working product is finally demonstrated to stakeholders. Documentation is no different from software design and coding. It, too, is produced as required by stakeholders. An iteration may not add enough functionality to warrant releasing the product to market, but the goal is to have an available release (with minimal bugs) at the end of each iteration. At the end of each iteration, stakeholders re-evaluate project priorities with a view to optimizing their return on investment.. 

The implementation of SAP software, such as SAP R/3 is almost always a massive operation that brings a lot of changes in the organization. The whole process can take up to several years. Virtually every person in the organization is involved, whether they are part of the Sap technical support organization or the actual end-users of the SAP software. The resulting changes that the implementation of SAP generates are intended to reach high level goals, The Sap implementation process is made up out of four main phases,  i.e the project preparation where a vision of the future-state of the SAP solution is being created, a sizing and blueprinting phase where the solution stack is created and training is being performed , a functional development phase and finally a final preparation phase, when the last tests are being performed before the actual go live. For each phase, the vital activities are addressed and the deliverables/products are explained.
