title: SAP SRM Interview Questions Answers And Explanations
author:  Jim Stewart 
description: <b>Why this book is unique:<br /></b> <br /> SAPCOOKOOK readers have a need for information they can use <i>right now</i>. And our series of SAP interview questions books is an answer to that need for instant information. Our books are written by SAP practitioners and expert authors who have varied and vast experiences in the world of information technology. <br /><br /> Rather than focusing on comprehensive, textbook-sized or voluminous reference guides, SAPCOOKBOOK includes only the information that can be used immediately by the reader in their job search or SAP career. In this regard, the books are much shorter, and this is the overwhelming preference of our readers. Rather than providing <b>more information</b>, our books focus on providing the <b><i>right information</i></b>. SAPCOOKBOOK Interview Question books can also be thought of as "cook books" in the traditional sense in that they provide the reader information in a very concise and useable manner, not unlike a recipe. In this way we hope we serve our readers by saving them time - by helping or readers understand what is important, and what they can safely ignore.<br /> <br /> For instance, you might find our books particularly useful for gaining knowledge and understanding of a completely unfamiliar area of SAP. By skimming the table of contents and index, you may quickly understand the most important aspects of a particular area, and also have access to the accumulated knowledge of our expert authors. It is the unique "Question and Answer" nature of the books that make them so valuable.<br /><br /> It can be said that, "If you can't find the right answers, maybe you're not asking the right questions..." Our books not only help the reader understand the answers, by providing explanations where applicable but also provide the right questions. Our books also include transaction code listing and table references which set them apart - and keep them close at hand at work rather than collecting dust on the shelf.<br /> <br /> Finally, SAPCOOKBOOK books are published with several goals in mind which we believe set them apart from other sources of information. Our mission is to provide the reader with timely, useful information that will increase their technical literacy, increase the awareness of careers in information technology, and challenge our readers to question the status quo. All of our authors are SAP professionals - and we know that our books offer a great deal of value to our readers - we hope you find them as useful as we do!

  Vexelle Manufacturing Inc. decided to build its second plant in a fairly small
  town in the Midwest. The new plant was going to have the best equipment, with
  all the latest technology. The first positions to be filled were for 15
  maintenance workers. Sherri, the human resources manager for the new plant,
  was in charge of finding candidates to be interviewed by the maintenance and
  production managers. The response to an ad in the local paper was incredible:
  hundreds of candidates replied. After four days of interviewing, only three
  job offers had been made, and only one candidate accepted.
  
  
  What happened?
  
  
  Everyone had a different idea about what a “qualified”
  
  
  candidate looked like. The HR manager used an old job description to help her
  decide who to schedule for interviews.
  
  
  The maintenance manager felt that, with the new equipment, Programmable Logic
  Controls (PLC) experience was definitel
