I don't know what SAP stands for but it is the name of a software developer and software that we use it at work. Amongst other things its a program that allows us monitor stock movements, eg if we have it in stock, if the warehouse has it in stock and if otherstores have it in stock. It also allows us to see what stock is in transit and the movements eg- how many were sold and returned etc. If u want to no more there web site is www.sap.com
