Sap B1 ERP is on the rise in gaining its ERP and MRP for small and mid-size businesses market share. This publication should help you in your next accounting software selection, as well as in deciding on who will be your SB1 VAR or Reseller and Implementation Partner.
When you are in software selection phase you should see SAP Business One presentation and in this demo you should identify which functionality fits your business processes and where you might need modifications. We will give you highlights on SAP B1 software development and programming, plus integrations
1. First, if you are programmer, please know that in SB1 you can only do select statement, but you can not modify or insert data into SAP B1 tables directly, as you probably did with your legacy ERP application, such as Great Plains, for example. SAP Business One installation controls your direct database access in order to prevent possible data integrity problems
2. SAP Business One SDK programming. Your SAP B1 customization partner should give you custom logic estimation. Modification should be programmed in SB1 Software Development Kit. SDK programming should be entrusted into certified SB1 SDK developer hands, and SDK is available for SAP Business One Certified VAR. Programming itself could be done either in VB or C# in Visual Studio .Net. If your SB1 implementation crosses US borders, then you should know that your custom module should be separately compiled for A and B versions (where version B is international). Plus you should be aware about future SAP Business One customization upgrade cost – as custom code will need to be verified and recompiled in the new version. Current SB1 version is 2007A and B. If you are upgrading from 2005, you will need to recompile it
3. SB1 Workbench and Integration methods. If you got it working with Excel templates and this is OK for you, then the following paragraph should be skipped. However if you do not like Excel way, you should consider ODBC queries instead, where you can go and try advanced SQL scripting: select, union, group by, having clauses for example
