I do, but I don't program. So, I don't know what that is like.

I used it way back when. It takes some getting used to, especially if you don't have a nice interface to it. I'm out of that side of the business now, so I don't use it anymore.

I do remember having a strong dislike for it at the time, however.

I've heard it's a real b*tch to setup in a business, but once it's up and running, it never fails.

No. There HQ is just down the street from me. I wish I got into 10 years ago. I would be on PH's deserted island now.

I think they have been going down a little since there be-all-end-all days. To many failed projects. It works if you do exactly as they say you should do things.

I'm very familiar with SAP, but not so much ABAP. I know our programmer spent a month offsite for ABAP training.

What does this have to do with the price of tea in China?

The construction company I work for hooked up the utilities in our trailer and built the deck between the two. Razz

Drive thru milk store? You mean the pasture where the cows are?

I think it really depends on what SAP is going to be used for. It seems to be really good for financial stuff and inventory management. It's not quite so slick for production.

We are in the middle of a massive SAP implementation. We were promised it was the next best thing to sliced bread. End users at this time are not thrilled.

It will. I missed implementation here by a year, but had to deal with a full system update and it was a little rough.
