Systems, Applications, and Products in Data Processing (SAP) offers software applications for business.

All of the SAP applications are based on a common infrastructure layer called SAP NetWeaver.
This IBM Redpaper focuses on the SAP business applications based on mySAP NetWeaver 2004 and outlines the activities involved when installing an SAP system that are specific to the System i customer. Use this Redpaper as an installation checklist.
For more detailed information about planning and installation steps and other considerations when installing an SAP application, refer to the formal SAP documentation.
