Right since its inception, SAP continues to support changing business processes and adapting itself to the needs of the organizations. To support the latest business strategies, the SAP has evolved over the time and progressed through the following versions:
=> SAP R/l — It was the first version of SAP and was developed for the financial accounting system. Now, this version is not available.
=> SAP R/2 — It was the second version of SAP. It replaced the R/l version of SAP in the 1970s and it was mainframe-based business application software. This version supported multiple currencies and languages to internationalize business management. Now, this version is not available.
=> SAP R/3 — With the evolution of the client-server based distributed systems, SAP R/2 was replaced with SAP R/3, which supports the client-server based distributed system. The letter R in SAP R/3 represents the real-time business data processing, while 3 represents the three-tiers in client-server distributed systems. The three-tiers in client-server computing are: Presentation (Client), Application (Business logic), and Database (Stores the actual business data). This new version of SAP is multi-platformed, that is, it can be installed and used on multiple platforms, such as Windows or UNIX.
