It’s really been a long time since SAP PRESS, publisher of SAP books, has come up with a new Quality Management (QM) title in its offering!
I often get feedback that the current QM title (book) does not cover the industry-relevant topics in sufficient details. Have you also faced same or similar issue of not finding any authoritative and expert-level QM book that can help you or your company during SAP ERP QM components implementation?
If SAP PRESS is to offer a new QM title (book) today, which topics would you like to see covered? Should it be more focused toward covering end-to-end business processes and business scenarios including QM integration with other SAP components such as MM, PP, SD etc.? Or should be more of a configuration guide? If both, then what percentage should it cover business scenarios and how much coverage should it accord to configuration part? My take on this is that the new QM title should cover about 85% business processes (including cross-modular) and about 15% configuration details.
Let us have an open discussion on this topic and in this blog post so that we can put forward our suggestions to SAP PRESS. As I am the author of the SAP PRESS book “Production Planning and Control with SAP ERP”, I undertake to communicate all relevant feedback/input directly to SAP PRESS.
I look forward to your thoughts and topics that SAP PRESS should cover in its next QM title (book).
