Essentials of Business Processes and Information Systems (0470230592) cover image

Business Processes and Information Systems uses a blended-learning approach comprised of three unique aspects, in addition to standard textbook content:
  1. Case Study:  The book illustrates all of the key concepts by utilizing a straightforward case study of an individual company throughout the book.  The case describes a manufacturing organization in terms of its key processes.  Student assignments are also based on this case.
  2. A 2-Step Learning Process:  Students will first execute processes on paper (i.e., create the process flowcharts and documents associated with the process) then execute them in a simulated SAP® environment.
  3. Simulated SAP Environment: Assignments and exercises in the textbook can be completed using the market-leading enterprise software, SAP®.  This book is written in partnership with SAP® and includes access to a hosted system that simulates the use of the most recent SAP® software.  Access to a live SAP® system or membership in the SAP University Alliance will not be required to use the simulated environment. This simulated SAP® environment is indistinguishable from an actual system. Assignments are automatically graded and data regarding the assignment will be submitted to the instructor.
