The book is a must add to any Functional consultant's and/or Client based IT department library. Every chapter is an easy to follow how-to that easily explains each covered area. After having this book for less than three weeks, I was able to show the client how to add role centers to their respective outlook accounts. I am going to recommend that the client use this book to handle adding their process flows into the help menu.The book is well written and is very easy to read. A novice would be able to follow the sections in each chapter which uses the Contoso demo company. The book was able to get detailed enough while straddling the line to not get so technical that only a developer would understand it.[...]
