This course exposes students to how core business concepts are implemented in real-world organizational settings. Key business processes covered include procurement (materials management), fulfillment (sales), and production (manufacturing). The class meets in a computer lab and enables hands-on experience, with instructor guidance, to the ERP solution from SAP, the world's largest business software company. Using the system's core modules and data warehouse, students will gain insight into online transaction processing (OLTP) and online analytical processing (OLAP). A detailed case study with supporting data and structured in-class exercises will prepare students for the SAP graded assignments. Students may download the SAP web-based client to their personal computers.
Open to HTMGT, RES-ECON, SPTMGT and ISOM majors only. OIM majors and Isenberg majors should monitor the course via SPIRE for seat availability. If you add yourself to the SPIRE waitlist, please ensure you do not enroll in a course that conflicts with this course.
