Re: BPCS Docs - BPCS OVERVIEW MANUAL FROM DS

Hi,

There has  been  lots dicussion  about lack of  DETAILED  BPCS DOCUMENTATION 
. The reason its not out there because there is no market for such a product. 
It will take years for a TEAM OF REAL BPCS GURU (Technical and Business) plus 
a huge investment in Hardware(AS/400 PC's) and Software(BPCS C/S) to put 
something like this togather... and how  much money will somebody be willing 
to pay for something like this????.... It has to be huge considering the 
available window (till the next release comes out), limited market and the 
effort involved. . I  am co-author of AS/SET and I have toyed around with the 
idea of documenting AS/SET,  what has discouraged me is the fact that there 
is very limited market and its shriking.

I have been using the DS Solution's Overview Manual for the past couple years 
and I find it to be very useful specially considering the price I paid for 
it. I have looked at SAP and other ERP books ... none of these books will 
make me an expert .. they are sort of overview books.
