Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

SAP was the first ERP software designed to work at different companies. One of the more well-known versions of SAP is called R/3. The R/3 program (where R means real time) was the first truly integrated system that was able to support most of an organization's major operational processes. SAP R/3 uses classic, native client, client-server architecture, rather than a browser-based approach that would be easier to use on a wide range of devices, such as smartphones and other thin clients. SAP later rebranded its R/3 software as the SAP Business Suite. The SAP Business Suite runs on an application platform called NetWeaver. NetWeaver connects SAP to hardware, third-party software, and output devices. NetWeaver also has SOA capabilities that help it integrate SAP with non-SAP applications. These features enable the Business Suite/NetWeaver approach to be more adaptive to new IT developments compared to R/3. ABAP is SAP's high-level application language that is used to enhance the functionality of an SAP implementation.
