This blog is my attempt to provide an insight of basic techno-functional aspects and terminologies of SAP PS to a novice.
In my first blog you will find the important terms of the PS module. I have tried to explain them with the help of an example. Following this is the next blog

Before you can run a project in its entirety, you must first describe the project goals precisely and create a structure for the project activities to be carried out.
