SAP History

SAP was founded in 1972 in Mannheim, Baden-W'rttemberg by five former IBM engineers: Dietmar Hopp, Hans-
Werner Hector, Hasso Plattner, Klaus Tschira, and Claus Wellenreuther. Originally, SAP means Systemanalyse und
Programmentwicklung (in english: Systems analysis and program development). Then they changed the acronym
to Systeme, Anwendungen und Produkte in der Datenverarbeitung (in english: Systems, Applications and Products
in Data Processing).

In 1976, the company became a GmbH (Gesellschaft mit beschr'nkter Haftung) company (in USA known as limited
liability company, LLC). In 1977, its headquarter was moved to Walldorf. In August 1988, it became an AG
(Aktiengesellschaft) company (in USA known as public company).

The first SAP software was known as R/1. It was launched in 1972. 'R' means 'Real-time Data Processing'. R/1 was
a financial accounting system. In 1979, it was replaced by R/2. SAP R/2 was a mainframe based business
application software suite. On July 6, 1992, SAP launched R/3. It was a client-server version software that was
manageable on multiple platforms and operating systems, such as Microsoft Windows or UNIX.

'3' in R/3 means '3-tiered' as it is a client/server based application. It utilizes a 3-tiered model:
Presentation layer, or client, which interfaces with the user.
Application layer which houses all the business-specific logic.
Database layer which records and stores all the information about the system, including transactional and
configuration data.
SAP R/3 is has some functional modules that can be applied in almost all departments in a company. The most
widely used modules are Financials and Controlling (FICO), Human Resources (HR), Materials Management (MM),
Sales & Distribution (SD), Production Planning (PP), Plant Maintenance (PM), etc. The overview of each module
will be explained in the next article. Each module is used for specific business processes in a company and can be
linked if applicable as they are stored in the same database.
