Synopsis Today, I am going to digress from the pure BI/BO related discussion, to a topic of general interest to many SAP Professionals and Consultants. If you are not already aware of the SAP Press Online Library, I will be providing a brief overview of the features of this library and benefits of having such an online resource handy. Ease of Access SAP Press has so far provided a great service to the SAP Professionals in publishing quality books written by experienced SAP Consultants.

It has gone one step further by providing online access to most of its printed books. The SAP Press website () provides an easy to navigate menu which categorizes books according to area of specialization (i.e. Financials, Business Intelligence, Business Objects etc.). By having online access to latest books, SAP Consultants can take advantage of the cutting edge information on relevant subjects anywhere, anytime.

This helps tremendously if you are consulting on client location and have to do a reference check on a topic. You are alleviated from carrying the books with you. Also, if you are working with a practical case study guide, in my opinion it is much easier to switch between browser (online version of the book) and working environment (e.g. Netweaver BW) on the same workstation, then to juggle between print media and the SAP System at the same time. A Supplementary Resource Of course, this does not diminish the importance of helpful forums and articles on SDN, rather it should be considered as a supplementary resource where information is well organized and readily available, provided you have a reliable internet connection. Finally, one might ask, how is it different from Safari or other online libraries?

Again, in my personal experience, I have not been able to find every SAP Press book that I needed on other online resources, especially not the most recent books. Further, for a small premium, you can also order a printed version of the book from SAP-Press. You could also review upcoming titles and pre-order online to book your copy in advance! SAP Press web site Creating your online library To begin with, you will need to create an account just as you would in any e-Commerce store.

Once you have access to your account, you could browse through the SAP books, preview the material or even order a trial license. Game Solar Pool Heater Manual there. You have the options of purchasing online version, printed version or both at varying prices. If you do purchase an online version, your book will be added to your very own library. Single License or Multiple License When you purchase a book, you are presented with an option for single license or multiple reader licenses.

For example, if you have a team of Consultants that could benefit from same text, you could use the multiple licenses option. The Book Shelf The books that you purchase will be stacked in a book shelf where you could sort/order them per your liking. Each book item in your shelf indicates the type of license, the page that you last read and quick links to table of contents and bookmarks. Navigation (Book Marks, Contents, Chapter, Page Number) The Navigation toolbar near the top allows you to look quickly move through existing book marks, create a new book mark with free text, skip through entire chapters or move through pages either one at a time or jump to a specific page (See Figure 2). The navigation panel on the left hand side provides quick access to table of contents. Navigation in your SAP Press online version of the Book Zoom in (and out) for clarity of figures and diagrams The Zoom feature on the toolbar allows you to enlarge the text and figures on the page (See Figure 2). I have found it to be particularly useful when there are annotations within illustrations of a figure that are not very legible.
