Erp4students vs wizcore to start learning SAP

afternoon folks,
I'm struggling to choose between 2 options either erp4students and 4 months online course or wizcore 2 weeks in house + 8 days practical internship.
if anyone has any reviews on this or any thoughts, please let me know
p.s costs nearly same in both providers.
regards
sam

Sam,
Just seen this post. A little late however perhaps it may help others.
I've just completed my SAP FICO Certification. My course was through Wizcore so I'll base my response on my experiences there.
Wizcore was thoroughly professional and supportive during my course. The teachers are not only helpful but very knowledgeable and have been in the Industry for some years. I did a 8 week intensive course covering the practical side followed by another 8 weeks internship.
The practical side gives you knowledge and experience of using SAP as a tool but the internship was brilliant in that there was a 'live' project to implement. The 'live' status of the project is debatable however the experience and lessons it teaches are second to none.
I would therefore recommend Wizcore to anyone considering pursuing a career in SAP.
Thanks kindly,
Manish

  • Best Practice to start with SAP NetWeaver BI (BW) to become a BI consultant

    Hi there,
    I have one Question. As consultant for SAP NetWeaver Portal (Development/Java), I would like to start with SAP NetWeaver BI (System Configuration, Customizing and Development with ABAP/ABAP OO) through e-learning and/or with (e)books.
    A system for making practice is available.
    Can someone give me a helpful guide how to start and become a BI Consultant for system administration and development within the next 12 months?
    Some Questions I have noticed are:
    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)
    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
    3) How is a BI system to configure as default after installation?
    4) Good guides (e/books) to learn ABAP and ABAP OO (as far as possible oriented on the practive)
    Of course, these are only a few Question and far from complete. Details and other important points will be appreciated.
    Many thanks,
    Cengiz

    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.

  • I have 3.4 years of ABAP experience. Planning to learn SAP BI and Move to BI. Kindly Suggest

    Hi Experts,
    I have been working for almost 3 and half years on SAP ABAP. Now i am planning to Learn SAP BI/BW and move my carrier to SAP BI/BW Completely.
    What would be the opportunities and carrier growth in the coming years for this combination. Please suggest.
    I have read all the previous posts which were posted a year back about the same combination. But please suggest according to the present trend.
    I will definitely consider your each and every suggestion of you as a priority one to my carrier growth.
    Thanks and Regards,
    V Shankar

    HI V
    if you already know it's better opportunities then it sounds like you have already answered your question
    if you are not familiar with the concept of big data or HANA I recommend you enter those terms in your search engine or look at SCN Front page and start reading
    as far as how to retrain and transition that will really depend on your current employment situation. What would be a great combination is a mix of ABAP with HANA. Without going into further detail I think you will gain more insight by your own research
    regards

  • How to start with SAP

    Hi Friends,
    I have 3 years experience in Software Industry. I an working in Financial Services as a Support Analyst. I want to start my career in SAP - ABAP now. I don't much about SAP-ABAP. I have got access on to SAP server for practice. Can you please suggest me some good links for new starters or some good e-books to start with SAP-ABAP.
    Thanks All.

    Hi Sunil,
    Thanks for your reply. Actual I have not done programming so much in these 3 years but I am familiar to all basics of prgromming. Why I want to go in ABAP as in my 3 years I have worked on technical part in my project..
    As I have spent only 3 years in Industry, I don't think it is a big deal to start my career with a new trun with ABAP prorgamming. Once I learn ABAP on my own I can shift to any of SAP-ABAP project within my company.
    I will visit the link given by you.
    Thanks,
    Jatinder

  • Pls advice correct sequence of learning SAP-ABAP

    I am a new learner in SAP-ABAP so just wanted to know the correct sequence of learning the things in SAP-ABAP and also I need to become technically strong . So just tell me how should I start? because my conpany is going to start implementation ecc 6.0 so all module consulting working six months in my company so pls advice correct sequence of learning the things with sap consulting.
    Thanks
    R.Sudhakar

    Hi R.Sudhakar
    There is no correct or incorrect sequence to any career. The most efficient way also depends more on your background and the opportunities available to you.
    If your company is going to start an SAP implementation does this mean you will be part of the project team? Or, are you trying to prepare yourself by self-learning and training to learn ABAP in hopes that you will get a job in that area?
    If you are working for your company your career path would be a bit different to SAP consulting. In both cases, if you are part of the team has your manager discussed training opportunities with you?
    What are you currently doing in your company at the moment? Are you already a developer and trying to learn ABAP instead? What research have you done so far?
    Regards
    Colleen

    Hi Thom Heinemann  ,
    The following websites containing PDF & PPT docs on BI will gain u confidence :
    What is a BW datasource?What is meant by maintaining a datasource?
    A BW datasource is a structure which is created in the source system and replicated to the BW system. Maintaining a datasource in a source system is doing any changes related to the datasource. It could be adding/deleting fields or checking the flags in the datasource like the hide and selection flag. Also, if the datasource is provided in the LO Cockpit, changes can be made there too depending on how the extraction of data is ...

    Creating SAP BW data source definitions
    http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/ablxhelp/v8r4m0/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.db2.abx.dev.doc/abx-t-develop-sapbwdatasource.html
    An InfoCube describes a self-contained dataset (from the reporting view), for example, for a business-oriented area. This dataset can be evaluated with the BEx query.An InfoCube is a set of relational tables that are created in accordance with the star schema: a large fact table in the center, with several dimension tables surrounding it.
    In its esence, Infocube is a data container. Data containers are used as a basis for analysis and reporting processes in SAP BW. Infocubes in SAP BW serve exactly this purpose. Infocubes in SAP consist of Key figures and characteristics. You can find some detailed information on key figures here. Simply speaking, infocube is any repository which contains data. Moving on to the types of infocubes. In SAP BW, there are basically two classes of infocubes. These are:
    Basic Infocubes - These are also called as physical infocubes.
    Remote Infocubes - These are also called as virtual infocubes.
    The basic difference between the above two types of infocubes is that basic infocubes are physically stored in the same SAP BW system as their meta data description. Remote infocubes are stored on a third party custom SAP BW. Both the above types of BW infocubes consist of key figures and characteristics. These characteristics in turn are divided into 16 dimensions. More on that in another post.

    Extract Structure
    In the extract structure, data from a DataSource is staged in the source system. The extract structure contains the amount of fields that are offered by an extractor in the source system for the data loading process. You can edit and enhance DataSource extract structures in the source system. To do this, in the BW Administrator Workbench choose Goto à Modeling à Source Systems à Your Source System à Context Menu (right mouse click) à Customizing Extractors à Subsequent Processing of DataSources.
    Transfer Structure
    The transfer structure is the structure in which the data is transported from the source system into the SAP Business Information Warehouse. It provides a selection of the extract structure fields for the source system.
    Use
    The transfer structure provides BW with all the source system information available for a business process.
    An InfoSource in BW requires at least one DataSource for data extraction. DataSource data that logically belongs together is staged in an extract structure in an SAP source system.
    In the transfer structure maintenance, you determine which extract structure fields are transferred to the BW. When you activate the transfer rules in BW, an identical transfer structure for BW is created in the source system from the extractor structure.
    This data is transferred 1:1 from the transfer structure of the source system into the BW transfer structure, and is then transferred into the BW communication structure using the transfer rules.
    A transfer structure always refers to a DataSource from a source system and an InfoSource in BW.
    You get to the maintenance of the transfer structure using the InfoSource tree of the Administrator Workbench. The context menu of the source system belonging to an InfoSource provides you with the maintenance marker using the function Maintain Transfer Rules.

    SAP Business Information Warehouse
    SAP Business Information Warehouse (SAP BW) is the name of the Business Intelligence, analytical, reporting and Data Warehousing (DW) solution which is one of the major enterprise software applications produced by SAP AG. It was originally named SAP BIW, (Business Information Warehouse), but is now known as "SAP NetWeaver BI".
    SAP BW consists among other things of components for data management (Data Warehousing Workbench), extensive data modeling capabilities, an embedded analytical engine, a suite of rich front-end analytical tools refererred to as Business Explorer (BEx), and operational tools used for importing the most current transactional data into the system. It may be helpful to consider layers that make up the structure of SAP's BI solution:
    Extraction, Transformation and Load (ETL) layer - responsible for extracting data from a specific source, applying transformation rules, and loading it into SAP BW system.
    Data warehouse area - responsible for storing the information in various types of structures, including multidimensional structures called InfoCubes.
    Reporting - responsible for accessing the information in data warehouse area and presenting it in a user-friendly manner to the analyst or business user.
    Planning - Provides capabilities for the user to run simulations and perform tasks such as budget calculations.
    SAP's BI application is a very pervasively employed data warehouse / analytical enterprise software solution, often utilized heavily by companies that essentially run their business on SAP operational systems such as SAP Enterprise Resource Planning (SAP ERP, traditionally known as SAP R/3). SAP's BI solution contains a large number of predefined "extractors", a very significant amount of pre-defined business content in the form of InfoCubes, master data (i.e. objects representing the entity for "Customer", or "Material"), authorization roles, query views and reports all delivered in the software by SAP. Some of the significant benefits of this approach include the ability to leverage SAP's substantial business knowledge from many years of developing extremely sophisticated software systems for the world's largest companies, typically shortening project development cycles in the process. The pre-defined business content can be modified to meet an organization's specific requirements, while at the same time taking advantage of general aspects of these delivered data models and reports that are somewhat foundational and have broad application in business, government, and education.
    SAP BW is now part of a suite of SAP applications called SAP NetWeaver. Other components of SAP NetWeaver include SAP Enterprise Portal (EP, called SAP NetWeaver Portal as of Release 7.0), Web Application Server (WAS), SAP Process Integration (PI, or previously XI, i.e. eXchange Infrastructure) and Master Data Management (MDM).
    The 7.0 version of SAP BW was released in June 2006 as part of the SAP NetWeaver 7.0 (aka 2004s). This new release includes many new features, such as next-generation reporting and analytical features, major data warehousing enhancements, and possibility to use innovative techology for query performance optimization called "BI Accelerator". BI Accelerator (or BIa) comes as an external applicance, i.e. complete hardware with pre-installed software. BIa requires separate licence fee.
    From SAP NetWeaver 7.0 on, the term SAP BW is obsolete, and instead it is referred simply as "SAP NetWeaver BI" - i.e. "SAP NetWeaver 7.0 BI".
    According to SAP, more than 12,000 installations of SAP's BI solution exist.
    SAP Business Information Warehouse (BW) is SAP´s Data Warehouse solution. It has been specially developed to allow you to gather and analyze all kinds of statistical information in the best possible way. 
    The SAP Business Information Warehouse (SAP BW) is a core element of mySAP.com. SAP BW is an enterprise-wide information hub that enables data analysis from R/3 and other business application, including external data sources such as databases and the Internet. SAP BW also offers easy integration with other mySAP solutions, such as mySAP Supply Chain
    Management (mySAP SCM), mySAP Strategic Enterprise Management (mySAP SEM), and mySAP Customer Relationship Management (mySAP CRM).
    SAP BW is a comprehensive end-to-end data warehouse solution with optimized structures for reporting and analysis. To help knowledge workers quickly mine an enterpriseu2019s business data, SAP BW is equipped with preconfigured information models and reports, as well as automatic data extraction and loading methods. 
    With an easy-to-use Microsoft Excel-based user interface, you can create, format, and analyze reports, and publish those reports to the web. Built for high performance, SAP BW resides on its own dedicated server. Online Transaction Processing (OLTP) and reporting activities are therefore separated, and system performance is not compromised.

  • Getting started with SAP Netweaver

    Hi there,
    I am an IT professional with 7 years of development/project management experience in MS technologies.
    I want to learn SAP Netweaver, but very new to SAP!
    What is the Pre-requisite to learn Netweaver? Should I know ABAP to get into the Netweaver platform?
    Please advice me and provide some useful materials to getting started with Netweaver.
    Thanx.
    Aslu

    Hi Aslam,
    there was a recent thread about a similar question of yours, please check out First time in  SAP  Netweaver
    There are so many NetWeaver components so your question is a bit hard to answer.. But if you want to keep on programming, you really don't need ABAP much. NetWeaver is mostly about Java (Web App Server & Enterprise Portal programming), but you have touching points to both .NET and ABAP.
    Hope this helps,
    -Mikko

  • I want to learn SAP.

    Hi there!
    My name is George and this is my first post, so please be gentile :).
    I am a web programmer, 3.5years of experiece  with Php, Mysql, Javascript, HTML, XML...
    I recently found out about SAP,   I read a little documentation ... and I want to start learnig SAP.
    I want an advice, if anyone can spare one ...  would it be to much for me to switch to SAP, based on my knoledge and programming skills?
    Thank you!

    Hi,
    based on your experience I recommend the ABAP academy and certification (http://www.sap.com/services/education/catalog/netweaver/curriculum.epx?context=[[NW_ABAP_DEV]]|).
    The academy is also available as a distance learning program: SAP eAcademy (http://www.sap.com/services/education/certtraining/eacademies/curriculum.epx?context=%5b%5bTAW1e%5d%5d%7c)
    If you want to move in an architecture role I recommend the new Associate Technology Architecture course and certification.

  • What is the best way to learn SAP Java

    Hi,
    I would like to understand basic principles of SAP Java, to check how it is working, primarily J2EE components like JMS, WS, EJB, Persistence... As I'm ABAP and PI consultant, I see this as my next step, sure I'm not aiming to be experienced Java developer beacuse this would require much more time than I have now.
    So far I read "Foundations of Java for ABAP Programmers" but I think that this is just a begining. I want to learn more stuff about SAP J2EE    and J2SE is for me, let say, clear.
    Also I start reading "Java Programming With The Sap Web Application Server" as my next book about SAP Java, but it is not quite that I don't like this book, it is somehow not interested for me.
    So I would like to hear your suggestions what is the best way or the best approach to learn SAP Java. I see this as future help for one ABAP and PI consultant. Also I've done some Mapping developments for PI (SAX and DOM parser), so really think for me to know Java better it will be "bigger plus" for me.

    I will suggest you SAP Elearning section on SDN about Java Development.
    Below is the link....
    http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/java-elearning?dprpp=all
    It contains lot of practical examples which will keep you interested as well..
    But you wil lhave to be very selective there on whaich topic you wish to kick start.........
    For example there is one called :
    Java for ABAP Programmers
    ABAP Objects for Java Developers
    SAP Java World for ABAP Programmers
    Java Mapping in Exchange Infrastructure
