What are SAP applications??
Sap is known as System Application and product. It creates same database where it can run all the applications in a company. Basically it is software which allows the people in businesses to keep track and updates of their customers and business communications and dealings. It can easily transfer data from one place of the business to the other from where it can be used
OK, good. I'll post below the "how to search" information that I have used in the past and still works well now. I'll also find some other websites for you.
Questions: How many research papers (of any subject) have you written before, and how did you do with them?
You may have to search and research, but once you learn some good sources and methods, you should have success. In addition to searching on the Internet, you also need to make best friends with the reference librarian(s) in your local or college library. Libraries these days subscribe to enormous research databases, and they are often more useful than Internet searches. Ask your librarian if you have access to EBSCOHost -- it has several databases within it, including a huge one for academic research.
For Internet searching:

At this webpage, you can go immediately to the search sites (first three columns across the top) -- or even better you can scroll down until you see the section called HOW TO SEARCH THE INTERNET. Those are the links to start with. You'll not only learn how to come up with good search terms, but also how to evaluate the webpages you get as results. Some will be good and others will be garbage. You need to know how to tell the difference.
My favorite way to search is to go to Google's advanced search page http://www.google.com/advanced_search?hl=en and put my search words or phrases into the first or second search box (either "all the words" or "exact phrase"). Another is to start out at http://scholar.google.com. However, there many other strategies for searching you can use, and the HOW TO SEARCH THE INTERNET section will help you best.
Learning to use Google or other search engines can save you time and help you learn to find information efficiently. Here are some websites that can teach you how:

Use the Step by Step link to take you through the entire process.
Use the Info Search as another place to do some searching.
What you wrote above can be used to start organizing what you research for and how you organize your paper.
for the introduction - SAP is known as System Application and Product. It creates same database where it can run all the applications in a company.
one main section near the beginning of the paper, probably second paragraph - Basically it is software which allows the people in businesses to keep track and updates of their customers and business communications and dealings.
another main section - It can easily transfer data from one place of the business to the other from where it can be used.
http://www.google.com/search?aq=f&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8&q=SAP+Applications
These search results are the broadest possible -- and you'll need to read carefully. I think some are sales sites -- skip those!
You'll get more focused results, though, if you use http://scholar.google.com and search for SAP applications
well thanks but i need 3 sources and i have to descibe my applications in detail and i cant find all the applications in just 3 sources
