The Concepts in ERP Exercises were developed so that once students should be able to complete these exercises independently outside of the classroom/lab. Each exercise asks the students to print out a report at the end of the exercise to hand in. Multiple versions of the Fitter Snacker Company have been configured in each client of the SAP R/3 system. The structure of the SAP system being used for this exercise is shown below:

All of the data in the Fitter Snacker database begins with a Data Set Number. For example, the NRG-A bars are entered as 00 NRG-A, 01 NRG-A, 02 NRG-A, etc. This allows students to use the search function in SAP to find their particular snack bar. In the exercise instructions, the pound symbol (##) is used to represent the Data Set Number. For example, in creating a purchase requisition, the instructions will ask the user to search for your materials using ##*. The student will need to replace the ## with the Data Set Number assigned by the instructor. For example, if the student is assigned data set number 09, then they would search for their material using 09*, and would find all materials that begin with 09. The screen shots in the instructions were created using Data Set Number 00, which is reserved for instructors. Students should be reminded not to use Data Set Number 00 in any transactions.

Reference materials for faculty are found in the following files: Concepts_in_ERP_Course_Setup_and_Organization Curriculum_Plan Concepts_Text_and_Low_Impact_Exercises Information_Sources Sales_Order_Process_Debugging Title_Page Materials Printing For the faculty SAP Overview workshop, we used a 2 inch binder. Within each file, we printed pages 2 sided. A colored sheet of paper was used to separate each file. Similar topics were organized behind 1 of 8 tabs.
