BI Consultant Roles - QA Environment
Hi Experts,
Where could I find some information about recommended consultant roles for a BI QA environment?
I´m trying to avoid using SAP_ALL during the test phase, but I don´t have an available professional to implement this role from scratch.
This profile would have to allow a consultant to do basically everything he has to do without using Basis transactions.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!
Hi Fabio
you could try creating a role with all RS class related objects. take into account that could be a heavy task depending on what exactly you want to offer to you test consultant.
Have a look here for details of the authorization objects you could use

SAP EHS Functional Consultant Role
Hi All SAP Experts!!!
Seeking help from all of you for enlighten me with inputs for enabling me to take next step as a SAP EHS Functional Consultant Role.
Quick information about myself, I am 43 year young guy, have done my Masters in Chem, Post Graduate Diploma in Safety Health and Environment, Certification in NEBOSH-International General Occupational Health & Safety, Lead Auditor of ISO 14001, OHSAS 18001 with 20+ years of industrial experience of implementation of Safety Health and Environmental Management in various industries (Engineering, Oil & Gas, Automobile, Automotive, Chemical, Facility Management & Infrastructure at India, Middle East, South Africa & US) by working and auditing them for respective EHS Standards.
As I have personally used and witnessed usage of many of the EHS related software which were ERP/ SAP based and found them very useful for making an fool-proof arrangement for effective EHS implementation. I did found some of the functional improvements areas during usage of the same i.e. by deploying EHS best practices I have witnessed at other industries directly or through software which will finally benefit the end-user and hence for the society too.
Following are my queries -
1. What can be the career path for person like me, who is having EHS functional knowledge & experience but does not have direct SAP implementation related experience and certification?
2. What are the minimal certification and qualification I will be requiring before switching to SAP Functional Consultant Role?
3. Who can be some of the best employer for me start this role?
Any other information, suggestions and inputs in this regards are more than welcome.
Thanking you all for the help and guidance you are going to provide.
Sameer SaxenaDear Sameer
your questions are discussed very often in this FORUM. Hi, is such an example, but you will a lot of more similar examples.
E.g.:

SAP niche domains with better future prospects
To All The SAP Mentors
Looking forward for your valuable suggestions please !!
Future Scope of SD for an abaper.
Therefore these are my hints:
Check first: SAP EHS Management for Beginners
Try to understand what SAP is doing (what means which solution exists and which solution is the right one to start with etc.).
To act a functional guy in SAP area you need basic understanding about SAP solutions.
1.) Shortly: there is no SAP certification in place for the SAP EHS solutions.
2.) Career: normally you ned first some basic SAP and SAP EHS training. The SAP training is available nearly worldwide. SAP EHS training is limited. E.g. there seems to be no good training option available in India (has been discussed as well in this FORUM).
Based on you "starter package" (know how) the "SAP EHS end user" option may be is the best. If you know about legal aspects/regulations etc. then by working on that in a company using SAP EHS solutions you will get closer to "technique" For work in EHS environment you need to have knowledge at least in the area (as called by SAP): product safety, dangerous goods management; as these are the "core" topics to cover in a company handling chemistry. On the top: if you have knowledge in the area of "Label Management" or "Waste" topics then you are in good starting position.
PLease check this FORUM. A lot of more threads can be found easily may be helping you to decide to go on.
C.B.
PS: please check first any SCN forum; it took me only "10" seconds (Ok less then one minute; but it was very easy) to generate the list of threads as part of this thread. -

SAP Functional consultant roles with S/4 HANA
Hi
in the current scenario there is huge role for SAP functional consultants, along with ABAPers and BASIC guys, in implementations,
with SAP S/4 HANA (both on premise and cloud) would there be similar roles available ?
we can see there is some talk about ABAP in HANA on premise, but could not find much information about the SAP Functional consultants roles in SAP S4 HANA (both on-premise and cloud)
what do you guys thing, would there still be a IMG in S4 HANA and there will be great needed for SAP functional consultants in new SAP Implements with S4HANAthanks Richard,
for taking time to clear some doubts, it will help alot,
so its the customer who will drive this....
if every customer moves to cloud (both HEC or public cloud) - SAP Functional consultants will be obsolete by 2025
even if there are some onPrem, due to pre-packaged S/4, there will be very less work
so the 40K odd SAP Functional consultants careers would be ended by 2025 -
What are the consultant roles in Upgradation or migration project
Hello ,
Would you please any dody help me to provide the role & responsibilities of consultant in SAP upgradation or migration project.Thanks.
Regards,
SampallyDear Sampally,
SAP defined a roadmap for upgrade.
1) Project Preparation
Analyze the actual situation
Define the objectives
Create the project plan
Carry out organizational preparation for example identify the project team
2)Upgrade Blueprint
The system and components affected
The mapped business processes
The requirements regarding business data
3)Upgrade Realization -- In this phase the solution described in the design phase is implemented in a test environment. This creates a pilot system landscape, in which the processes and all their interfaces can be mapped individually and tested on the functional basis.
4)Final Preparation for Cutover -- Testing, Training, Minimizing upgrade risks, Detailed upgrade planning
5)Production Cutover and Support
The production solution upgrade
Startup of the solutions in the new release
Post processing activities
Solving typical problems during the initial operation phase.
SAP expects at least 2 to 3 months for Upgrade and that again depends on project scope and complexity and various other factors.
STEPS IN TECHNICAL UPGRADE
Basis Team will do the prepare activities. (UNIX, BASIS, DBA).
Developer need to run the Transaction SPDD which provides the details of SAP Standard Dictionary objects that have been modified by the client. Users need to take a decision to keep the changes or revert back to the SAP Standard Structure. More often decision is to keep the change. This is mandatory activity in upgrade and avoids data loses in new system.
After completing SPDD transaction, we need to run SPAU Transaction to get the list of Standard SAP programs that have been modified. This activity can be done in phases even after the upgrade. Generally this will be done in same go so that your testing results are consistent and have more confident in upgrade.
Run SPUMG Transaction for Unicode Conversion in non-Unicode system. SPUM4 in 4.6c.
Then we need to move Z/Y Objects. Need to do Extended programming check, SQL trace, Unit testing, Integration testing, Final testing, Regression Testing, Acceptance Testing etc.,
The main Category of Objects that needs to be Upgraded is
Includes
Function Groups / Function Modules
Programs / Reports
OSS Notes
SAP Repository Objects
SAP Data Dictionary Objects
Domains, Data Elements
Tables, Structures and Views
Module Pools, Sub Routine pools
BDC Programs
Print Programs
SAP Scripts, Screens
User Exits

Unable to see new role in environment
An end user said that a role that was working last week is no longer available in the portal. No changes have been made to the system in the past week.
A co-worker successfully imported this new role into the portal a week ago, but the change did not synchronize to all the servers in the environment. We have one Central Instance and two Web Application Servers in our Java environment. The import was successfully completed on WAS1. I verified this by checking the PCD import log files on WAS1. When I log into the portal running on WAS1 the new role is available. When I log into the portal running on the Central Instance the role is NOT available.
To resolve the issue a logged into the portal running on the Central Instance and used System Administration >Transport Packages> IMPORT to import the *.epa file containing this role.
Is there something else I should have done to resolve this use? How does a the system synchronize changes to objects in the java environment?Hi,
when doing a depoly of an application (PAR) or EPA, you basically just copy the file to a (shared) folder on your java instance. This change get's recognized by your instance.
If it's a PAR, the instance informs all the other instances in your cluster of the change. They all access the application and do a local deploy / installation of the change.
If it's an EPA (PCD objects), the instance reads the content and writes it to the DB and informs the other instances that a DB change has occured and they should read the DB again to sync their content.
Normally, the deploy;import works without problems in a server, but can produce from time to time some errors / sync issues. Depending on the cache, an instance simply won't read the DB. You can use a tool from SAP that checks the instance and DB for sync issues (the tool is called something like: PCDcheckDB.sh).
Generally, you should clear the cache of your portal after every deploy/transport to ensure that the user is getting the latest version:
- Navigation cache
- portal DB cache
- PCD cache
- (HTTP provider cache, web dispatcher cache)
Depending on you configuration (cluster with many servers and nodes), you see this issue several times, you can do the following:
- Shut your DI down and do the deploy on your CI.
- Restart your DI with the sync option. This way, they will sync the content of the DB and disregard the local cache.

Bw-apo consultant roles n responsibilities?
hi,
i am a bw consultant.i just want to know what are the roles n responsibilities of a bw-apo consultant.Hello PADMAVIJAYA M,
I am in a similar role right now. In this role, you might be in charge of any of the following:
1) Design and implementation of components for extraction of data from source systems and loading of data into APO structures. For example, in APO Demand Planning, sales history is retrieved from a source system (e.g. SAP ERP, Oracle, Flat File) and then placed into a temporary InfoCube in the APO server. The data from this InfoCube is then used to load data into the DP Planning Area. It can also be used to generate Characteristic Value Combinations (CVCs).
2) Design and implementation of components for extraction of data from APO structures (and then loading that elsewhere). For example, in APO Demand Planning, you will be in charge of extracting data from the Planning Area (using the datamart interface) and then processing that (e.g. aggregating/disaggregating the data into the required hierarchy level) or loading that to an external BW server (e.g. an Enterprise DW).
3) Reporting (i.e. using BeX)
For example, you might be asked to design reports in BeX that for example, might compute the discrepancy of the sales history VS the forecast..
There is usually a large volume of data that comes from APO and we have to make sure we manage the performance aspects.
In summary, I guess this is "typical" BW Consultant work except that you are dealing with an APO system as the target/source.
Hope this helps -

Sridar.Hi Sridar,
PCUI is the web based component of CRM. The pages are built out of BSP and the code is written using ABAP O.
As a technical consultant in PCUI you will have to debug and write as well rewrite the codes in ABAP O and in BSP. Also you will have to learn about the Blueprint customizing in PCUI which will help you indentify the problem and make changes if any.
You will have to identify the controllers and make changes accordingly. Please make your familiar with the MVC architecture and then start debuggin the PCUI applications.
