ANY RECOMMENDATION FOR SAP FICO BOOKS ?

[Former Member]

Hello SAP Professionals,

I just completed training in SAP FICO module and I plan on taking the SAP FI associate certification exam soon. I’m thinking of investing in some books to broaden my knowledge and also help in preparing for the exams. Can you please suggest the best SAP FICO configuration books out there? I found a few on amazon (see list below). Are any of these any good?

1. Configuring SAP ERP Financials and Controlling by Peter Jones and John Burger (March 30,2009)
2. Configuring Financial Accounting in SAP by Narayanan Veeriah   (October,2011 SAP Press)
3. SAP Certified Application Associate - Financial Accounting (FI) with SAP ERP 6.0 by K Kiran and Augustine D (Dec 3, 2010) 

The Peter Jones book has the most review, however since it is published in 2009, I’m of the opinion this might be outdated? .The Configuring Financial Accounting in SAP by Narayanan Veeriah   is more current (2011) but has only one review on amazon which is not good. The last book on the list is for the certification exam, it only has two reviews and both reviews are good.

Your feedback will be most appreciated. Thanks

Hi Olufolake,

These books are only complimentary and may not good enough to pass examination. (No negative remark for these books, indeed!!!)

Please go through TFIN50 and TFIN52.
