Dear SAP Community,

Many of you in the SAP Logistics and Supply Chain Management (SCM) has been inquiring about the status of my book “Materials Management with SAP S/4HANA” and its availability. I am very pleased to announce that it is now published and available.

The book is 950-pages of deep-dive into MM and associated topics. Authoring it has been a tall order as it is never an easy task to match the enormous legacy that SAP mentor, the late Martin Murray, has left behind.
