Proven expertise in BRFplus has recently become a very desirable asset among technical SAP consultants. Although BRFplus is becoming more and more important it is still a comparatively new product and therefore reliable information sources are still very scarce.

To date, there are no comprehensive tutorials, nor any books to cover all aspects of BRFplus. Therefore, I keep on traveling to customers and teaching BRFplus to consultants and developers.
 
Fortunately, our new book BRFplus – Business Rule Management for ABAP Applications (ISBN 978-1-59229-293-6) closes this gap. It is available in December 2010 and contains more than 400 pages of first hand BRFplus information.

The book is a co-production of Thomas Albrecht from the development team and me, and therefore incorporates firsthand knowledge. I’m confident that after reading it you’ll agree that there is no better, or more detailed source of information!
You can order the book now in the SAP PRESS online bookstore or any other book shop.

BRFplus Book

While the business context and underlying principles are explained in a non-technical manner, the book also contains how-to guidance and code examples for technical readers.

See the sample for the detailed TOC and a text excerpt.
