Best/Hot SAP Career Module

Dear All,
Can anybody guide me which SAP Module is lonstanding in terms of market sustainability? Is it SAP CRM? SAP Project Management? SAP Product Life Cycle? SAP MM? etc....
I appreciate if someone could guide me which module is best. (Irrespective of the domain knowledge of the candidate, I would like to know which SAP Module has bright prospects for at least 5 to 10 years more......
Thanks in Advance

I am not a visinary, so I cant tell how the market will be in 5 or 10 years.
but if you are good in your job, then you will probably survive in whatever module you are supporting.
Having a job does not mean that you just rest for the next five or ten years. everything is flowing and developing.
it would be pretty boring if I had to do 10 year long the same old stuff.
And if I look back 10 years, then I can tell you a lot has happened, and I think that even more will happen in the upcoming 10 years, as everything is going faster.
MM is a commodity, from my point of view you cant really make a career with this module.
We dont even have an IT department for this module, as it interfaced to any other module, everybody does a little MM part.
And looking at job offers of the last couple months here in Germany, then noone is really looking for MM guys.
you have to have at least 2 modules.
I feel that GRC (governance, risk, compliance) is becoming more and more important. The days where the IT guys were the kings is over. The big audit companies forcing the business to take ownership of data, restrict it to the most, have people not do 2 things that could potentially harm the company. All big companies are looking for GRC guys,

Sap career in which module - reg.

Hello Guru's
This is challa, from Hyderabad, i have lot of doubts in choosing the sap career. I found many sap modules in which i can't find to choose.
i am working as a Logistics executive (import & Export) in a company, i am very much interested in SAP. My Aim is to get a job in SAP industry.
So, please suggest me sir which module is suitable to move forward in SAP, i am very much confused so please kindly help me sir.
now my age is 29 yrs is this age is write to get job in SAP. so please give me complete guidance sir.
Regards
CHALLA

Hi Sudhakar,
The best suitable module / system suits for you is SAP SD (cover logistics) & Foreign Trade and SAP Global Trade Services (Compliance, Customer, Risk Management.
SAP SD Covers logistic execution and Foreign Trade, however nowadays SAP trying to split all modules in big a way due to Globalization. If you look at SAP SD - Foreign Trade that becomes SAP Global Trade Services as separate system.
The quite secret is domain experience never counts in IT industry but that would be an added advantage for your career as for my experiences in India and outside India. Also, the companies first question is "Whether you have relevant SAP experience or are you holding any SAP certification" you can experience when you apply for a job.
Age side, there is no restriction of age to enter into SAP because when I studied in SAP Authorized Training Institute there were two guys whose age was 40 and 41 years and another two guys were 36 years old. That was a great boost to me when I joined at 29 years to take a certification and I started my SAP career at 29 years only.
You know one thing, all those guys got a job in only in CMM Level 5 companies in India, you have to believe you and your passion, patience and perseverance end of the day. Because those Mid 30 years and 40 years old guys were succeeded already then why can't you.
Our guys already pointed lot of things to you... Take a slow step one by one and try to get into SAP. Do not urge you and take the step. Do not leave your current job and take the step. So, take it very slowly and precisely.
How will I take step?
1. Go to SAP Authorized Training and take a certification
2. Go to SAP Training Training and Certification Shop and Take the training & certification.
3. Be patient and apply the job and set your target (give 3 to 6 months time) to get into SAP or become SAP Consultant.

Best practice identifying ERT modules with SAP / IS-Utilities

Hi everybody,
I'm looking for the best practice identifying ERT modules with SAP / IS-Utilities (electricity).
Here's the physical device set up :
The ERT modules are internal to the electricity meter. They're integrated into a multi purpose electronic circuit. So they can't be remove physically as a separate device.
The ERT modules are used to transmit data from the meter to a radio frequency receiver (handheld or drive-by). The main data that is transmitted is the consumption reading. So the receiver stores the ERT module number and the reading value.
They may be one or more ERT modules in a single meter, and each ERT module transmit his own specific consumption reading (energy reading, demand reading, etc...).
Each ERT module has is own manufacturer number.
My issue is :
To find a way to identify in IS-U the ERT module within the meter's register group (or somewhere else???) in order to relate each register to his ERT module number.
The purpose of all this is to create reading orders with the ERT module number following for each register.
This way we can match, using a unique key, each reading order and his corresponding reading value uploaded from the radio frequency receiver (handheld or drive-by).
Thanks for your help and ideas on best practice.

Hi,
1) The system (application) environment of BI (what is integrated in it - e. g. within the portal, there is a storage for unstructured information like documents or virtual rooms for collaboration between departments - and what does it make)
Document management from RSA1 transaction of BI helps to attach any unstructured documents at specific level in BI.
2) How does development in BI works (development environment, coding, debugging, building, deployment and test) and what is used stronger (ABAP or ABAP OO)? Here, I don't mean how to write ABAP or ABAP OO programs, only the infrastructure from development to transport to a target system
BI has got a separate tool and GUI to perform all the Extract, Transform and load related activities. ABAP is part of BI but you don't need much extensive ABAP learning. Basic ABAP is sufficient to write routines and extractors.
3) How is a BI system to configure as default after installation?
May be a BASIS person can help you out here about the configuration but this is not the job of BI person.
4) Good guides (e/books) to learn ABAP and ABAP OO (as far as possible oriented on the practive)
You can search for SAM Series learn ABAP in 24 days book. This book is sufficient to learn the ABAP required for working in BI.
But except ABAP you will have to completly learn the BI system to work efficiently.

Durgesh.

For Professional level certification aspirants in SAP Controlling module

Dear all Professional level Certification aspirants in SAP CO module,
I have recently passed the Certification test on SAP Management Accounting (CO) module in version ERP 6.0 EHP4. I have more than 4 years experience in SAP Controlling module.The following are some of my suggestions regarding preparation for the exam.
1. All the questions were scenario based. The exam tests expert level knowledge and real time scenarios in the module. The theoritical knowledge is not sufficient to clear the exam. Unless you have atleast 5 to 6 implementations in Controlling module, it is not advisable to give it a try.
2. Detailed knowledge of the system configuration settings about the various courses mentioned in the syllabus is required. One needs a clear understanding of Special costing functions, ERP integration, Transfer Pricing, Material ledger, New GL Parallel valuation, Planning and Budgeting fuctions in various components etc.
3. The exam tests in-depth knowledge about various integration aspects of Controlling module with other modules. The advanced master data functionalities of other logistical modules like MM, SD, PP, PM, QM, PS, CS, HCM is tested in detail.
4. Several methods of process and performance optimization of the system are also tested.
3. Some reporting aspects of BW and BI are also tested. The cross application aspects of the system are also tested.
4. The exam also tests the real time skills in preparing Blueprints, Business Process design and trouble shooting the system. Being knowledgeable about some of the processing errors and message classes will be of great help.
Hope this information helps you in preparing for the certification.
Should you need any clarifications, please post a reply to this thread and I will post answers.
All the Best!!

Hi Vikrant,
the pass mark for the exam is 58%. However it may be different. The passing mark shown on your screen on the day will be the correct passing mark.
All the questions were scenario based which would involve high analytical skills and through understanding of the system integration. It would be difficult to tell any specific question. The questions carry different weightage. If you answer the questions with less weightage correctly than the questions with more weightage, you end up scoring less though you answer more number of questions correctly. and it is vice versa. Go through your syllabus and cources and try to concentrate on the topic areas which contain more weightage.
Moreover, the exam is not completely technical in nature. It tests a lot of analytical and problem solving skills required on the job.
Note:Please do not ask the questions or contents of the exam as they are confidential.
Hope this information helps you.
All the best for your exam!
Regards,
Vishnu.

SAP HR MODULES

hi
what are the SAP HR Modules that I can specialize in as a SAP HR Support consultant?

Hi Vee Nel,
If you are working in a support project you can get expertise on the modules that are been used in that specific project.It all depends on the project which you are working or going to work.
In support projects you can expect lot of work if the project is not stabilised , and on the other hand you may not have hands on enough work if the project is stabilised.
Comming to Modules in HCM, as I said earlier each client will have different modules and based on country specific too. If you are suppporting US clients then you will get a chance to work on OM PA TIme, Payroll ( some time upto gross calculations, and some times till net calculation) Travell, and Benefits. Compensation management, LSO, PD , TE will be used by some clients. Same with Indian and UK Clients too. It all depends on client and project which we are working on.
All the best.

Sri..

Matrix certification for SAP PSCD module

Hello,
I would like to know if the SAP PSCD module is already certified to run on SLES (SUSE Linux Enterprise Server)?
Do you have a matrix of modules certified to run on SLES?
Best Regards

Dear Francisco Martinez,
you should have a look to the <a href="http://service.sap.com/pam">Product Availability Matrix</a> at the SAP Service Marketplace. On the right pane, navigate to SAP Industry-Specific Components and then SAP PUBLIC SECTOR PSCD.
For example, when choosing SAP PUBLIC SECTOR PSCD 4.72, you will see, that PSCD is an addon for SAP R/3 ENTERPRISE. You now have to check, on which platforms SAP R/3 ENTERPRISE is certified.
On the right pane, navigate to SAP Application Components and then SAP R/3 ENTERPRISE. Choose your SAP R/3 Enterprise release and check on which database platforms it is released (If database is certified, the Application Server is certified as well. Because of this, you always have to check for the database platforms!).
Choose your database and check which operating systems are certified.
Best Regards
Hannes
