Dear All,

I appologise to beginers and fresher for my mistake,That I have posted advanced topices,but not the basics.Please find here the basics introduction of SAP.

What is SAP R3?
We know that SAP R/3 is software, it particular it is client-server software. This means that the groups/layers
that make up a R/3 System are designed to run simultaneously across several separate computer systems.

When you install Microsoft Excel on your PC, each component of Excel (printing components, graphing components, word processing components, and etc.) is stored, managed, and processed via the hardware of your PC. When a company installs SAP's software each component (or "layer” in R/3's case) is stored, managed, and processed via the hardware of separate and specialized computer systems. Each of the various layers is capable of calling upon the specialty of any of the other installed layers in order to complete a given task.

Those components/layers that are requesting services are called “clients”, those components/layers that are providing services are called “servers”. Thus the term - “client/server”.

What is meant by SAP ECC?
SAP is an ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) module, ECC is the version of SAP, like 4.6, 4.6c and 4.7 in that series new version is ECC-6. Its known as Enterprise core component.

Hi Akhilesh,

Thank you for your support. The application is very useful. We have been using it, but we have not received any formal training on it. Therefore, starting from the beginning will definitely assist us.

Looking forward to your guidance.
