3) the video relates to the specific topic in the text book in
following ways-Consistent with this textbook’s focus on the
integration of business processes with ERP systems, we have divided
the book into two key areas. The first area,
which consists of Chapters 1–3, focuses on the integrated nature of
business processes and the enterprise systems that businesses use
to manage them. Chapters 1–2 introduce the foundational concepts,
which are subsequently
developed in the process chapters in the remainder of the book.
Chapter 3 examines the basic concepts in fi nancial and management
accounting, which are integrated into the subsequent chapters. The
second part of the book contains the process chapters, which
are
structured based on a standard template that is comprised of two
main parts.The first part of each chapter discusses the
organizational and master data associated with the process, and the
second part examines each step of the process in detail. Each
chapter concludes with a discussion of the reporting capabilities
needed to manage the process effi ciently.as mentioned in the
