BO training with SAP Development background(ABAP)

HI guys. I just wanted to see what everyone's option is regarding Business objects development.
I have about 8 years of SAP development experience. Mostly with ABAP and web dynpro.
I have given the opportunity to take BO training for our future implementation.
Is there specific class you recommend me taking?
Would I benefit in the future if I have ABAP + BO development experience? or am I comparing apple and oranges here?
would it be better if I take BW(instead of BO)?
Just looking for you thoughts.
thanks

Our company is currently implementing SAP BPC and BO
I was given the opportunity to take some training but I am not sure which way to go about it.
I am leaning towards BO for the fact that it integrates with 3rd party software/DBs and I dont have to be tied to SAP till eternity.
But at the same time, I have some reservations going the BO way because of my many years of ABAP experience which I think BW will suit me better in the short term( less learning curve).
Can someone who has been in my shoes provide some insight into my future?
One of the reasons I am leading more towards BO is for the  fact that HANA will provide most of the  BW functionality build into it in the future. This argument alone makes me hesitant to invest myself in BW at this time.
Also , does BO have much to do with SAP BPC?  I hear is that most of the development work will be done in EXCEL and BW? is this true? will there be need for BO developer?

    Hello,
       Could any one tell me what are the training/materials which one has to study to clear the <b>"C_ABAP_70       SAP Certified Development Associate - ABAP with SAP NetWeaver 7.0"</b> certification.
    Best regards

    PS: Points rewarded for answers.

    Addition to tapan,
    I guess SAP has removed C_TAW12_71, C_TAW12_71, so you can apply for latest exam C_TAW12_731. Find difference between these two certification exam at given links.

  • SAP Tech e.g. ABAP for people with non IT Background

    My current position: I am a BA graduate. Working in BPO for years though i never want. I know multimedia works in ADOBE softwares like motion picture editing, compositing & designing etc. That was a hobby but couldn't turn that into a career because of very limited scopes and less salary.
    My current aim: Now planning to make my career in SAP tech like ABAP as i m interested more into developing, programming works. After a lot of search, I atleast got to know that career is good into SAP ABAP (if I am not wrong).
    My query: Can I do SAP tech like ABAP and make a career as I have no IT background. If ther is any course prerequisite to be done like programming/ coding etc. before doing a SAP ABAP module. Please let me know. I'd be thankful for any detailed reply or beginning steps.
    Please help me make my career....
    Regards,
    Bryan

    Developer jobs always look glamorous and attractive, specially for the non-developers. Anyone who wants to be a ABAP developer should have to make a wise and informed decision to avoid dissapointment.
    Here you have to keep in mind two things
    1) Firstly will you be able to master the subject 
    2) Second how practical is it to get a job, after learning abap.
    I feel that if someone has not gone through any kind of programming syntax & pl/sql programming earlier in their career, its going to be a pretty tough thing to be good at abap.
    This is totally subjective question <and we dont know much of ure background>, its better u discuss it with some ABAP consultants face to face.
    Hope it helps.

  • CRM ABAP development and interaction with SAP R/3

    Hi Experts,
    I am an ABAPer and have close to 3 years of development experience in ABAP, now i was trying to understand how exactly a CRM system is intergrated with SAP R/3 . Below are few of the basic question i have
    1. How does R/3 interact with CRM, searching in the forum i just got to know its through RFC . Can anyone give me specific technical details like how R/3 and CRM interact in a real time scenario .
    2. Ca any one also give me an real time development example that was done in CRM to interact with SAP R/3 and explain me the basic steps involved in it, this might give me clear picture of how developments happen in CRM and also how CRM and SAP interacts with each other .
    Your quick response would be greatly appreciated .
    Regard's
    Sudheer V

    with repect to programming , it is similar to R/3 ABAP devlopment . It all depends on scenarios:
    1) For eaxmple we use BADI's to put some extra validations / additional data when you are creation order
    2) unlike R/3 where we use SAP GUI trnsactions for creating orders, in CRM we have IC web client techonolgy where we can create orders through web.This is based on BSP technology. In order to add additinal fields on the screen for we use easy enhancment workbench tool(EEWB).this is something new in CRM when compared to R/3.

    hi,
    actually you can find your sid on your certificate itself ... your sid will start with SXX .. ok now along with this you will receive an envelope in which there would be an letter where detalis regarding your sid and password for login access in sap market place will be stated... so you can login with that in server market place.... usually you get this along with the certificate and is being provided by the centres authority...   now if you have not received it so you need to contact your centre and tell them to give it to you... if they dont barged then you can ask them for the concern guy's email .... this guy is the one who receives all the documents relating with your certificate .. now this guy is someone from sap labs banglore ...  also if you have not received your id card so you can mail him or tell your centre authority in that case now usually the centre guys take the matters lightly ...
    ok and as far as your certification exams goes i did search the pearson website they really dont have that professional certification for the abap guys but they do have one for functionals and some other....
    ok now you need to approach yout nearest certification centre in that case and simply ask them that you need to appear for level 2 certification also you can contact the sap labs banglore in that case but i know that they are not responding .....
    so in that matter you tell your centre that you need to schedule the certification they will charge you the certification amount and then will  schedule the date..... yes they can do that.
    hope this will surely help you!!!
    thanks & regards,

  • ODI background execution with SAP

    Hi Experts,
    Here is my problem. I am connecting ODI with SAP R/3 to extract data from some tables.
    In my client configuration on SAP, they have a timeout of 10 minutes and that is a problem when I try to extract data from a big table where the time of processing is more than 10 minutes. Some people tell me that you can execute the ABAP programs in dialog mode or in background mode, and in the second option, you skip this problem.
    So, my question is: can I configure the excecution of the ODI ETL in background on SAP? or Can I configure the ABAP program to always execute in background on SAP?

    Someone have an idea?
