Real)

companys business processes & applications, &

The international standards have been considered while
designing the software like support of multiple
currencies simultaneously, automatically handles the
country specific import/export requirements
The modules of R/3 can be used individually as well as
user can expand it in stages to meet specific
requirement's
R/2 in the Late 1970s

In 1978 SAP began developing, and the
following year released, R/2 (R for "real-
time"), a mainframe-based, standard
business software suite in which Integrate
able modules for accounting, sales and
distribution, and production enabled
customers to consolidate their financial and
operational data into a single database and
eliminate costly paperwork and data entry.
Because the modules were self-standing,
businesses could select only those they
needed, which could then be further
customized to their unique requirements.
R/3 Development in the 1980s

As R/2's potential began to peak in the mid-1980s,
Plattner and company's former employer, IBM,
announced a new "system applications architecture"
(SAA) technology Seeing the ramifications of such
integrity ability for its own products, in 1987 SAP
began developing R/3 for use in the decentralized,
non-mainframe computing environment known as
client-server. In client-server arrangements, data is
processed not by a single costly mainframe but by
many cheaper networked "server" computers, which
display their data on flexibly arrange able PCs called
"clients." While R/2 focused on providing data
processing solutions for static, individual functions of
business operations, such as inventory tracking or
shipping, R/3 was designed to allow a business to
view its entire business operation as a single
integrated process in which data entered into any
single application in the system would simultaneously
be registered in every other.
Introduction of R/3 in the 1990s

After five years in development, R/3 had
been launched with the expectation that it
would complement R/2's multinational-
oriented niche by extending SAP's reach into
the mid-sized, less mainframe-dominated
business software market. Unexpectedly,
however, R/3's release coincided with a
growing trend toward corporate downsizing,
and even SAP's largest customers began
eyeing R/3 as a less labor-intensive
replacement for R/2. R/3 was suddenly hot,
and virtually overnight SAP had translated its
reputation as Germany's wunderfirma to the
global stage.
SAP R/3
SAP R/3 is a computer system that is designed to
support complete business management tasks of a
corporation, company or institution. SAP R/3 is used
in business systems to handle invoice payment,
production resource management and financial
account control. These specific tasks are
accomplished by employing application modules,
often described with acronyms such as MM
(materials management) and SD (sales and
distribution).
Modules process information through each and
every component of the organization, using one
secure R/3 system to share relevant information
between parts of the organization, keeping the
corporation up-to-date on latest technology and
data information. A common database is employed
among each of the mid-sized to large-size
corporations that utilize R/3. R/3 may also be used
by small business, allowing business to prosper
without having to worry about changing systems.
An additional benefit to using SAP R/3 is
that it combines with a corporations
previously existing computer system. R/3
uses the ABAP/4 programming language
and allows for the possibility of several
computers of differing manufacturers to
conjoin into one solid working database,
operating in the open system or
client/server environments. SAP R/3 is a
Windows and Menus driven application
containing graphical objects.

The R/3 system provides a flexible
organizational structure.
It can connect all the business processes
together & every employee could have
fast access to the required information.
The in house staff can do work easily with
reference ABAP/4R development
workbench, which is an integral part of
R/3. R/3 application modules are either
used alone or in combination with other
solutions.
