Sage 100

Does anyone have a Sage 100 Flow Chart or module interaction chart? 
A client called and someone representing Plex  ERP software dropped by to cold sell the client on Plex software. He left a flowchart of how their software interacts.(attached is a picture of just part of the flowchart).   So the client is asking if Sage provides anything similar. He honestly thought that the flowchart Plex left with him was overly complicated; but he thought it would be nice to have at least a big picture of how the modules interact and perhaps flowcharts of individual modules. He has a new employee that can't seem to grasp the big picture of the inter-workings of Sage.

His request seems valid and could be useful for training and even in a demo.  I have a vague memory of something along these lines from the ancient days when hard bound user manuals were shipped along with the floppy install disks for MAS90.

Has anyone seen anything from Sage or created anything they would be willing to share?

I think the really old manuals used to have something similar. I'd counter this with information on the available Sage U instructor-led training which is available regularly and includes a manual and ultimately certification for new employees. I think that type of training for a new employee is going to be far better than using a flowchart.

I can't imagine a flow-chart would help a user... that's more for developers / support staff.  VPF might help if they need a visual aid.

Attached are 6 that I have readily available from the really old manuals.  If push comes to shove, I may be able to provide some of the other modules' flowcharts.  Also, I wonder if the Visual Process Flows screens inside Sage 100 would be of help.  And there are still some flowcharts in the current Sage 100 Help System, although it seems limited.

Wow... SO chart doesn't show impact to Inventory, just lot/serial history.  o.O

Thanks Brett, 

o clarify my question, I really didn't mean to imply that it would replace training, but help as a visual aid during training. The client that is asking for this thinks that sometimes the employees that are doing a receipt of goods or production entry don't understand that if they take shortcuts or don't pay close attention to detail, that will have ramifications in other modules/places in Sage.
