The program name must adhere to the customer naming conventions, meaning that here it must begin with the letter Z.

For instance, HCM is Human Capital Management, FI for Financial Accounting, MM for Materials Management and SD is Sales & Distribution and so on. All together there are some nineteen core modules. These modules are highly integrated in real-time, which means, that if information is shared between modules then the data is entered only once. This reduces the chances of error arising from repetitive entry and also reduces the man-hours. Managers and decision makers always have information at their fingertips and this helps them in effective decision making. SAP has been around for nearly four decades. Nine out of ten Fortune-50
