Dear nag

SAP Best Practices facilitate a speedy and cost-efficient implementation of SAP Software with a minimal need for planning and resources. SAP Best Practices are suited to the enterprise requirements of different industries. They integrate well with varying financial accounting and human resource management systems and can be used by enterprises of any size.

=> SAP Best Practices are a central component of the second phase of ValueSAP (Implementation). The ValueSAP framework guarantees value throughout the entire life cycle of SAP Software.

=> SAP Best Practices are a cornerstone of mySAP.com, since all the key elements of mySAP.com are linked to SAP Best Practices through preconfiguration. Key elements include:

<> Preconfigured collaborative business scenarios
