Question

hi
This was the question recently asked by the panel how do u find as a sap sd consultant which field belongs to which table and how will u give the funcitonal spec to the development team to prepare a technical specification.

Answer 1

HI
unctional specification
Func Spec basically contains the information about the business process which needs to be mapped on to the IT system (SAP). It encompasses all the related function points which will be part of the business process.
It also mentions the programs or utilities which can be enhanced/modified/copied to achieve the end result (in case the functional consultant is aware of the program/utility)
Function Specs is a document which a functional consultant prepares to be given to Abaper. This Document contains details like Tables & fields name, Table joints, Logic for development, along with test case in sand box / test server to verify the development.
Format for Functional Specs:
