Role of SAP Functional & Basis Consultant for any new authoirzation/user ID in Support Phase

Dear Expert,
Please let us know what is standard /best practice for below activities in SAP Support phase?
Who will responsible for Authorization Matrix?
Who will be first point of contact (Functional / Basis Consultant) to SAP user for any new authorization request?
Who will do the testing & impact analysis of new authorization?
If we provide any new SAP transaction code to the end user & user is facing authorization object issue then who will be first point of contact for user Functional / Basis Consultant?
Also who will be fist point of contact (Functional / Basis Consultant) for new User ID creation request?
In our current practice Functional consultant is dealing with end user. He is taking requirement of new Report/Transaction access request & doing analysis. Then he is taking approval from BPO & based on BPO approval Functional consultant is providing training to end user. When end user is accepted requested report requirement in standard report or transaction data process then Functional consultant is sending request to Basis consultant along with authorization parameters like Role, Organization parameters, type of activity (create/change/display/delete) etc.
Our Basis consultant is not agreeing for this process & he want to directly deal with end user for all activities & he will take help of Functional consultant if required.
Sorry friends this is not technical discussion but it is create big dispute between our internal support team regarding who will be first point of contact for any authorization related issue?
Regards / Aviya.

Dear Aviya Paul,
1. Who will responsible for Authorization Matrix?
Authorization Matrix that define "what position may have access to which authorization/ role" shall be developed by User (Management), with support from BASIS.

Should i Swap my career from hardware engg to Sap Basis Consultant?

Hi,
I am into computer hardware and networking since last 14 years. Now i am planning to go for SAP basis certification. Will it be helpful to obtain a good career? Or i should proceed towards microsoft certification only?
What are the basic requirements to become a SAP Basis consultant?
Thanks in advance
Milind

SAP Certification is always an added advantage those who are seeking a career in SAP. Just check with the Education Partners like Siemens / Genovate / Yash etc for the pre-requisites... One more important thing is SAP Certification is much difficult that Microsoft Certification. Hope this helps

BPC Functional vs Technical Consultant

Hi All,
What is the difference between BPC Functional Consultant vs BPC Technical Consultant? Looking at Dice, there are many jobs for both fields but for Techincal consultant it seems you need more software specific knowledge.
Please kindly advise.
Thanks

Hi Fahad,
Technical consultants require the in-depth knowledge of how BPC is configured. How are the objects created in the system. It basically involves the creation and configuration of various objects and functionalities in the system.
Functional Consultant needs to have a good understanding of the business and should also know how BPC works. Their responsibility includes understanding of the business requirement, and based on that they should be able to prepare the design document. This requires a good knowledge of the overall business, and also about the BPC system.
Hope this helps.

Career for SAP Basis consultant

Dear Friends,
I am into SAP Basis, most of the jobs have been outsourced in UK as such there are hardly any jobs in sap basis . Please can u kindly suggest me what is the next best option for SAP Basis for more career opportunities. Please kindly suggest me, I don't have job for last 10 months.
Thanks.
aarya

I am trying to reply all the bullets in your post one by one.
Some of the agencies (AtoS and some others) I have got in touch with to discuss this certification have suggested doing SAP SD or MM certification, keeping my experience in view. If I do it what is your guess how soon I could find a job with this certification.
for training and certification you can go to any SAP authorized institute , you can find many depends upon which country you are presently staying.
What kind of salary will I be able to attract if I do get a job. Currently I am getting good salary by auto industry standards (around $15K). As per the information I have got the starting salaries in these roles are some times less than half of what I am getting now.
if you are already at $15K (1,50,000 US Dollar if i correctly understand) then you are earning much higer then a SAP consultant having a decade experience in SAP. Better look for management job. If salary is the criteria.
Finally how fast is the growth in this industry? Let us say I do the certification spend some $500 and join a company with salary less than half of my current. After doing this, as per your experience how soon will I be able to reach or exceed the salary I would have been getting otherwise (assume I perform fairly well in my SAP role ;-).
refer the above one
So finally should I go ahead with the certification?
Certification is optional , if you just have user level experience you may not be knowing all what comes within an module, i still recommend training as it give you all back ground about SAP and you can understand most of the master data piece to create a right foundation for a module.
Hope this will help you.
Thanks

What is the role of a SRM functional consultant during SP15 upgradation?

Hi,
We are currently on SRM server 5.5, support pack 11 and planning to upgrade to SP15.
As a functional consultant, what are the checks need to be performed?
Got OSS note's side effect report from SAP which consists of apprx 60 notes that need to be applied post SP15 upgradation.
Could any one share their experience how to assess these OSS notes & their side effects. It would be beneficial if you can share any sample template showing the assessment work done & its validation by Business.
What are the effects on existing business process (new functionalites and enhancements).
And do we need to involve the end user/ Business for performing the integration testing & Quality testing.
Thanks a lot.
Santosh
