The original name for SAP was German: Systeme, Anwendungen, Produkte, German for "Systems Applications and Products." The
original SAP idea was to provide customers with the ability to interact with a common corporate database for a comprehensive
range of applications. Gradually, the applications have been assembled and today many corporations, including IBM and Microsoft,
are using SAP products to run their own businesses.
SAP applications, built around their latest R/3 system, provide the capability to manage financial, asset, and cost accounting,
production operations and materials, personnel, plants, and archived documents. The R/3 system runs on a number of platforms
including Windows 2000 and uses the client/servermodel. The latest version of R/3 includes a comprehensive Internet-enabled
package.
SAP has recently recast its product offerings under a comprehensive Web interface, called mySAP.com, and added new e-
business applications, including customer relationship management (CRM) and supply chain management (SCM).
As of January 2007, SAP, a publicly traded company, had over 38,4000 employees in over 50 countries, and more than 36,200
customers around the world. SAP is turning its attention to small- and-medium sized businesses (SMB). A recent R/3 version was
provided for IBM's AS/400 platform.
