1.

SAP Business One is not a web enabled system but it provides remote access through
Citrix.
2. The initial version of SAP Business One doesn’t provide intercompany transactions.
3. It is not featured to provide time period view of stock in warehouse. The features such
as bar code scanning, optimized picking and radio frequency updating can be done only
through Radio Beacon or other third party software.
4. Manufacturing module of SAP Business One is called light manufacturing because the
features are restricted to material, assembly and work orders, and the system has to be
integrated to N'ware to get improved marketing module.
5. The cost of software is as per the market standards but the total cost of ownership can
be high.
6. Some customers have complained that the SAP Business One's reports are not too good,
as it is more of an on-screen inquiry, which allows users to simply base on the report
generated.
7. The SAP Business One is also not considered a good MRP solution, because it does not
do any scheduling.
8. The Banking module and Document Editing feature are also quite weak, as the customer
needs to perform the data entry on different areas, whether in the Banking module or
the GL.
9. Lack of Flexibility to Choose - Small and medium sized businesses are very particular
about what they are spending. With SAP Business One, you do not have a choice of
selectively picking the modules or functions you want, while leaving the rest. So, you
have to take it as it is. The only exception that you can opt is to drop the CRM function if
you so desire. 
10. No Payroll - Payroll is not a part of the SAP Business One solution and hence you need to
purchase this from a third party. The worst thing being, you need to continually
maintain the ongoing business process integration between the two products.
