I want to run "SAP" on my PC - where to start?

Hello,
I'm seeking a career at a company that has "knowledge of SAP" as one of their requirements - this is for a position in Finance. I've watched some tutorials on SAP, specifically the "FI/CO" features - and thought that I would give it a try by installing it on my PC. Now, I'm technically literate - but I've never used this application, so before I start I have some questions.
What is SAP? Specifically, is (the client side) one APP with built-in features that does all kinds of things? Or is it something like Lotus Notes, where the base app does nothing, and you need to install modules from your employer that actually do things?
What is the difference between SAP Netweaver Application Server, ABAP GUI, and SAP ONE? The way I understand it, I need to install and run the application server from my pc (I have Windows Server 2008 R2), and then which is my client application where I would do the actual work? The ABAP GUI or the SAP One?
This is one of the videos (SAP FICO Video Training - New General Ledger, Segment Reporting, Validations and Substitutions - YouTube) that I watched, and wondered if I can do that on my PC, and with what applications.
Sorry if this has been asked before, but from reading articles and other documentation I'm still unsure of where to start - and thought I'd get a definite answer here.
Thank you

  • Run SAP with embedded username/password

    Is there any way to run the SAP client so it will automatically log in with particular credentials?  I'm trying to figure out a way to automatically have SAP start in the middle of the night (I need an add-on to start before a certain time).  I've found articles related to the Windows 'runas' command, but I don't think that is relevant.  Thanks for the help.

    Hi,
    Your goal is not support by B1 design. If you want to run add-on on midnight, you have to leave the client log-in all the time.
    Thanks,

  • Want to learn SAP PLM

    Hi All,
    I have 11 years of experience in Enovia PLM (java based PLM tool) and has good understanding of Engineering Management, Product configuration and Product portfolio management.
    I want to improve breadth of my knowledge and want to learn SAP  PLM
    Can any of you guide me where to start.
    I am currently at Atlanta GA USA Are there any good  online training institutes.
    Also please let me know good websites to learn about SAP PLM
    Thanks & Regards
    Murali

    Hi Murali,
    There are different ways you can learn SAP PLM:
    1) Easy but costly way is through attending cources run by different SAP Authorized Training Centers. By Training route u will get proper step by step guidance on different PLM functions, but it will have some impact on your pocket.
    2) You can read SAP Help available online. But trust me without assistance its like learning greek.
    3) There are different Presentations available on internet made by consultant for their customer. It would be great first step towards excellence.
    Mentioned above are few ways by which you can learn SAP PLM, however the time & understanding level totally depend upon your will to get mastered into it.
    Thanks & Regards

  • Minimum H/W to run SAP BPC 7.5 NW

    Hi Folks,
    I have a question regarding hardware as for the performance testing.
    We are currently dealing with performance testing in the early phase of design since the customer wants to see the initial expectation. The client wants to build server for the purpose of performance testing(NOT scalability testing, that is one user test with large amount of records), and want to know minimum size since it is only focused one user testing.
    Anyone can tell me what is the minimum size of hardware to run SAP BPC NW?
    And few more questions,
    1. Is it possible to run SAP BPC with BW and NW in a single server?
    2. 1 above is true, what is the step of installation?(Just to provide info to the customer)
    3. Any customer to run SAP BPC NW in the cloud environment?
    Thanks in advance,
    YH Seo

    Hi,
    Let me try to answer one by one.
    1. BPC and BW can be installed on the same hardware. However, if BW is installed on a linux platform, then BPC cant be installed there, because BPC is only supported on windows. Having said this, for the production system, I would suggest you to have the BPC and BW in 2 different systems. It will be better from the performance aspects.
    2. You will get all the information regarding the installation from the installation guide available on SAP service market place.
    3. Not that I am aware of. the development and quality can be run on a cloud environment. However, I wont suggest the same for the production system.
    Hope this helps.

  • Run SAP

    Hello All,
    Any one has used Run SAP implemetation methodology for SAP SCM-APO Implemention? If yes what is your experience. Do you suggest to it for SCM 7.0?
    Regards,
    Anjali

    Hi Anjali,
    You mean ASAP methodology for implementing SCM 7.0
    It should work fine, if you start from Project prep.. Business Blue Print, Realization, Final Preparation, Go Live & Support
    This is more or less a Business question, which methodology they want to adopt and depends upon implementation partner also.

  • I want to run apple Hardware Test but can't find it on any CD's.  I bought my iMac in 2009.  I think it had 10.4 installed.  It's not on my installation disk.  Where can I find it?

    I want to run Apple Hardware Text but can't find it on any CD's.  I bought my iMac in 2009.  It came with 10.4.  Apple Hardware Test is not on the installation disk.  Should I have it?  Where can I find it?  I"m now running 10.7.4.

    The disc plainly state:
    To  use the AHT, hold down the D key as the computer starts up.
    Works here. However, there was an issue with installing Lion that screwed this process up.
    Mount disc 2, run this command in the Terminal app, OPTION-click & hold Finder's Dock icon, and select RELAUNCH:
    defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles 1
    That unhides all hidden files/folders.
    Now, drill down to /"Applications Install\ Disc"/System/Library/CoreServices/ and drag the .diagnostics folder into your Lion boot volume's /System/Library/CoreServices/ folder. That might require you to authenticate to copy the folder into the CoreServices subfolder.
    Run this command to hide the normally hidden files/folders and RELAUNCH the Finder again.
    defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles 0
    This should allow the machine to boot into AHT when restarting and holding down the D key.
    If that doesn't do the trick, run this command in the Terminal app:
    sudo chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/CoreServices/.diagnostics
    At the Password: prompt, carefully type in your admin password, since nothing shows up on the screen, and hit the return key. Then, try another restart, holding down the D key.
