Hi Friends,
Could someone help out with what technologies/databases are being used to capture and maintain the Cost of Goods Sold? (e.g., SAP MM examples or something else) ?
I am working on a downstream project for an oil major and would like to determine which technology would be best for storing the cost of goods sold information.
Thanks
Sam

Hi Sam,
Cost of goods can be determined by any business software.I am big fan of SAP so I will suggest that SAP SD(Sales & distribution ) module will suit best to sales applications.You need to have SAP FI also to cater financial transactions.
Actually SAP ERP package conatins different blocks to cater different needs.
Some of important functionality provided by SAP is
Procure to Pay = SAP MM
Order to Cash = SAP SD
Hire to Retire = SAP HR
Cash to Paymane= SAP FI and these are very much integrated features.
Please see the link mentioned
