Packt is looking for SAP experts to write a new set of books…

Packt Publishing today announced its plan to advance its lineup of enterprise focused titles, and invited potential authors with SAP skills and book ideas.

SAP is essential...

With more than 25 industry solutions in critical sectors like financial services and service industries; SAP services is one of the world’s leading Business Software companies. SAP tools are being widely used even in small and midsized companies. Many companies are moving to SAP to meet their increasing business demands. SAP is ranked No. 1 with 22.4% market share for BI, analytics and performance management.

A good job entails learning and being proficient in SAP tools. The training programs are usually costly and most of these trainings only get you started with SAP. Packt plans to develop books that will help the readers get a step ahead of all the people who have undergone these training programs.

What current books lack...

When companies buy any SAP tool, they shift their piecemeal business model to a composite one. This move usually comes alongside the realization that there is steep learning curve for everyone involved--- administrators, developers, managers, and end-users.

Most books in the market focus on developers and administrators, and often that is only in a broad sense. Developers and administrators need books that are focused and specific. In addition, readers need books that show how managers and end-users can adapt to newly implemented SAP-based systems for areas like data management, and SAP Sybase among others.

SAP products are used in strategic business areas, like ERP, CRM, and SCM. These vital sectors need different kinds of approach, setup and execution, and there is a need for books that focus on sectors like finance, service sector, consumer goods sector and so on…

Packt wants to develop focused SAP books...

At Packt we want to develop focused, specific, and highly practical SAP books for communities of developers, administrators, managers and end-users alike. And we’re looking for authors, who can stand up to the challenge and deliver such books.

• SAP Business Intelligence
