SAP SystemsSAP Business One for Growing Businesses
A growing business usually adopts a system at the point where spreadsheets have already failed, under time pressure and without anyone whose job is the implementation. This course is built for that situation. Delegates work through the core setup decisions that are difficult to reverse: chart of accounts, item and business partner master data, and numbering. Purchasing and sales document flow follow, including the link from order through delivery to invoice and why breaking that chain causes reconciliation work forever. Inventory management, valuation methods and warehouse handling are covered. Banking, payments and reconciliation follow. Financial reporting and period end are addressed. Approval procedures and user authorisation are covered, since a small team still needs separation of duties. Reporting and query tools follow. The course closes on data migration from spreadsheets or a previous system, on going live, and on the housekeeping that keeps the system trustworthy.
