New in DMS

[Former Member]

Hi, i know nothing about DMS but i would love to learn about the topic. I tried to find really hard in the web for free material that could help to start with the topic and even learn more than the basics. But i failed, all i could find is a book in amazon about DMS, but it isnt an online ver ><.

So i was wondering if by any chance any of the DMS experts here could lend me a web or place to find info about DMS, any material is really appreciaated.

P.D: i tried sap help but i was hoping for a easier material to learn about the topic

Thanks and regards

Thanks for the tips!! i didnt have idea such thing as DMS exist till yesterday cause one project at work asked for it, and since none of my team knew anything about the topic we got not choice but to reject the project >< so now i wanna learn about it so next time the same doesnt happen.

We were even wondering if one module of SAP like SD, FI, CO, MM, etc was supposed to be in charge of DMS XD
