3 Useful SAP Business One Reports that Even Your Intern Can Use.

Have you ever heard the story about the intern who was given free rein to evaluate business software for his employer? Management was taken aback when they discovered the potential that enterprise resource planning (ERP) and real-time reporting dashboard offered their business to improve. After watching a live ERP demo, not only were they surprised by how easy it was to query information, they could also better facilitate regulatory compliance, track shipments across the supply chain, or better still, gauge the financial pulse of the organization.
