Yes there are "free" manuals that come with BPCS but they are NOT very
good 
... actually getting BPCS and keeping it can be very expensive, as other

threads here attest, but once you have BPCS properly installed, one of
the 
objects is called BPCSDOC consisting of a directory of source objects 
describing many many aspects of BPCS in great detail, but poorly
cross-indexed.

Yes there are great manuals or guides for many BPCS areas but they are
NOT 
free.

Take your pick ... invest a few hundred dollars in high quality
explanation 
that can be used by any and all co-workers ... or print a few door stop 
documents that will take you a lot of time to absorb.

For the freebie stuff, get yourself to the BPCS DOC menu and check it
out.
Anyone looking at BPCSDOC for the first time ought to start with
SSALOG00 
the BPCS overall Logic Manual.

It your security will not let you access menu DOC, talk to your 
installation's BPCS security office about getting copies of the relevant

SSA RUN documents for each of these applications.
It is also practical to get into the HELP screens text of BPCS software,

without actually running the programs involved.  This can be of immense 
value in seeing what the programs do, and how to navigate all the
screens 
available.

If you know SEU, you can SEARCH BPCSDOC content looking for particular 
programs and features.

The only application on your list that I am familiar with is CST.
It is incredibly complex.  Like the recent thread from someone on this
list 
asking about the implementation of MRP, a major prerequisite to doing it

right is to get the right education.
I suspect that might also be true for some of the other applications you
list.

For the quality education and documentation that is not free, check the
