SAP Makes it Easy for Manufacturers and Wholesale Distributors to Get Started on SAP Business One
As you may already know, SAP Business One (often referred to as Business One and SAP B1) is the best selling enterprise resource planning (ERP) software system on the market today.

It offers a complete set of core modules, including financials, customer management, sales, operations, and logistics, which address the business management needs of your entire company.
