OCP certification question

Should I take the 9i OCP exams or just do 10g OCP exams? Also what exam tests were most helpful to get certified? Thanks
Scott

I would recommend you to read 9i and 10g new features from oracle doc before you appear for exam. Download 10g from OTN site and make some practice.
ILT course material (Instructor Lead Training) from Oracle University would be handy in this case. Also, there are good books for OCP 10g. from Oracle Press and other publishers.
Most important things is practicing.
All the best.

  • How to get Oracle 11g OCA, OCM, OCP certification?

    Hi,
    This is my first post! Please pardon my ignorance. I want to get Oracle 11g OCA, OCM, OCP certifications done. How do I go about it? How much does it cost to get these certifications? Could you please suggest a website/url where I can get more information about it.
    Thank you,
    Tracy

    The Oracle Certification Program site should answer your questions.
    Assuming you are trying to get certified on the DBA track (there are many different certification tracks, I'm assuming when you say 11g that you mean to indicate that you're interested in the DBA track), you can see the progression of the exams and the options you have on this page.

  • 9i OCA to 10g OCP Certification

    Hi,
    I am an OCA (Oracle 9i). I have passed my first exam on 01st july 2002 of IZO-001 and Fundemantals 1 in 2004. I am planning to move towards 10g and complete my OCP certification. I have few questions related to this.
    1. I have to appear in Admin1 and Admin 2 module of 10G to complete my OCP cerftification for 10g. Is this true?
    2. Do I need to take any course from oracle university in order to get certificate from oracle? As I read from website that there is an exemption for the applicants who have passed their first test before 01st September 2002. Please clear this point as I have passed my first exam before 01st september 2002.
    I shall be really thankful to you for your quick and favorable response.

AFAIK you need to take one Oracle University course to be OCP

    With regards to the hands on course exemption ......
    My understanding is ...
    - Is that at least previously people who had taken a (relevant) certification exam prior to 2002 were exempt from the 9i DBA OCP hands on course.
    - (I have now found the relevant page below):
    - However my understanding is they are not exempt from the 10g DBA OCP hands on (so to obtain 10g DBA OCP without a hands on course they would need to go via 9i DBA OCP first).
    - So my understanding is to obtain a 10g DBA OCP (given a success with 1z0-001 prior to 2002) you would either:
    1) Take 1z0-032 and 1z0-033 (and submit a 9i DBA OCP hands on course exemption for exam pass prior to 2002)
    - Then as a 9i DBA OCP take the exams required to be 10g DBA OCP (eg 1z0-040 (or 1z0-042 + 1z0-043) )
    2) Pass 1z0-042 to 10g DBA OCA
    pass 1z0-043 and submit appropriate hands-on-course exemption for 9i DBA OCP.
    Reference:
    The page [http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=99#1] indicates how to submit a hands on course exemption for 9i DBA OCP. I recommend you do this immediately to confirm your position (I cant see any harm in doing this).
    ------ I also recommend you register on Certview to confirm your exmption has been accepted.
    Please note this is my best understanding .... th Certification Forum Moderator may choose to comment or you may wish to confirm with ocpexam_ww. However I my reading of the above reference under the section Candidates who are exempt from the Oracle9i hands-on course requirement because they took their first exam on or before September 1, 2002 seems to be clear enough.

  • The course I did to gain OCP certification in Oracle Database 11g does not appear on the courses submission list on the website of pearson vue.

    The course I did to gain OCP certification in Oracle Database 11g does not appear on the courses submission list on the website of pearson vue, I sent an email to [email protected] from < email address deleted by moderator >, without an answer in 7 days since 01/28/2015, the email is below, the title of my course is in Portuguese.  What should I do in this case ?
    Dear Oracle.
    I am sending this email because recently I passed in the exam 1Z0-053 Oracle Database 11g: Administration II, which is the last examination necessary to acquire the OCP Certification. However, in the path to the certification I need to prove that I participated in an Oracle Official Training.
    Searching for the course on the pearson vue site, I have not found the course name on the list. So I am sending this email with the course information required for certification. I attended to the course in college FIAP (http://www.fiap.com.br/en/conheca-a-fiap/parcerias-estrategicas/), in the city of São Paulo, Brazil, from March/2010 to March/2011. Accessing the link above is possible to verify that the educational institution is an Oracle Partner. The title that I got was "Graduate in Oracle Database Management".
    In this email I attached a copy of the FIAP Certified Course (front.jpg certificate, certificate back.jpg). I’m also sending the data from my profile in the pearson vue site (Pearson VUE - My profile.pdf), and my scores in the exams for OCP certification (1Z0-051.pdf, 1Z0-052.pdf, 1Z0-053.pdf ).
    If you need any further information just let me know and I will provide.
    Please acknowledge this information and grant me the OCP certification (Oracle Database 11g Administrator Certified Professional).
    Regards.
    Italo Moisés dos Santos.
    Oracle Testing ID:  < deleted by moderator >

    Sorry, I expressed myself badly.
    When I access http://www.pearsonvue.com/oracle/course/ and start submission process  of the course, in the first step “Select the track for which you have completed a certification requirement” I selected the option “Oracle Database 11g Administrator OCP”, in the second step I selected “ILT = Instructor Led Training”,  but when I got on the third step “Which course or requirement did you complete?”  I have to choose the course name that I did, the course name that I did does not appears in that list, so I do not know which one to select, even having at the end of the form the option “Other ...(Course or requirement is not shown above. Please enter title below.)” the course name I did is in Portuguese/Brazil, the name is “MBA em gestão de banco de dados oracle” in Portuguese, which in English would look like "Graduate in Oracle Database Management".
    I sent an email to [email protected] containing the information that I found necessary to obtain certification.
    But if I have to do the process in the pearson vue site, should I put the course name in Portuguese or in English ?
    Only the email I sent is not enough ?
    Thanks for the help, and sorry for my english !

  • Should I go for Oracle 10g OCA/OCP or 11g OCA/OCP Certification?

    Hi all,
    I am lil bit confuse to decide about my oracle core dba certification.
    Please help me to know, as per the present requirements of the business organizations.
    ***Should I go for Oracle 10g OCA/OCP or 11g OCA/OCP Certification?***
    Hope u guys answer me earliest.
    Thanks & Regards,

    Most likely, it doesn't matter too much. I doubt that most employers are terribly concerned with what recent version of Oracle you have a certification on.
    That said, if it matters
    - What does your organization use? What are their plans to upgrade? If your company still uses 9.2 primarily and has plans to upgrade to 10.2 this year, you're probably better off with a 10g certification. If your company is already running mostly 11.2, you're probably better off with an 11g certification.
    - What do most employers in your particular part of the world tend to use? What do job postings in your particular part of the world generally list?

    Regards
    Mano

    Dear Mano,
    SD SAMPLE CERTIFIED QUESTIONS
    I BASIS KNOWLEDGE AND SYSTEM NAVIGATION
    1. Name two ways to start a transaction.
    answer: Dynamic Menu and Command Field
    2. Why do you create user*specific parameters?
    Answer: They supply defaults to R/3 fields. If a field is indicated, the system automatically fills in
    default value. Depending on the field definition, the entry can also be replaced with a value
    entered by the user. (Concept of PARAMETER ID)
    3. Name the three different kinds of messages in the R/3 system. What is the difference
    between them?
    A message can have five different types. These message types have the following effects during
    list processing:
    A (=Abend):
    The system displays a message of this message type in a dialog window. After the user confirms
    the message using ENTER, the system terminates the entire transaction (for example SE38).
    E (=Error) or W (=Warning):
    The system displays a message of this message type in the status line. After the user chooses
    ENTER, the system acts as follows:
    While creating the basic list, the system terminates the report.
    While creating a secondary list, the system terminates the corresponding processing block and
    keeps displaying the previous list level.
    I (=Information):
    The system displays a message of this message type in a dialog window. After the user chooses
    ENTER, the system resumes processing at the current program position.
    S (=Success):
    The system displays a message of this message type on the output screen in the status line of the
    currently created list.
    4. What is a data dictionary or repository?
    Central catalog that contains the descriptions of an organization's data and provides information
    about the relationships between the data and its use in programs and screens.
    The data descriptions in a Data Dictionary are also called metadata, i.e., data that describes other
    data.
    The ABAP/4 Dictionary stores system*wide data definitions. When you create a new data
    definition, the Dictionary tool does all the processing necessary to create the definition. You can
    use the Dictionary tool to look up the "definition" of objects in your R/3 System.
    5. What is a matchcode?
    Comparison key. A matchcode allows you to locate the key of a particular database record (e.g.
    account number) by entering any field value contained in the record. The system then displays a
    list of records matching the specifications.
    If you want an end user to see a specific menu after logging on the R/3 system, how could you do
    that?
    User maintenance transactions allow the system administrator to create and maintain user master
    records. This includes the generation and assignment of authorizations and authorization profiles.

    SD SAMPLE CERTIFIED QUESTION
    III MASTER DATA
    Why does the customer master have different views?
    In addition to the sales and distribution data, the accounting data is also important for a payer.
    Therefore one can create a customer master record centrally for the following partner functions:
    For the payer
    For the sold*to party who, in addition to the other partner functions, also takes on the function of the
    payer.
    Which different partner functions can a customer master record serve?
    Customer:
    sold*to party
    ship*to party
    payer
    bill*to party
    One*time customer including all partner functions.
    What is the structure of data in the customer master record?
    Different data is maintained in each of the three areas:
    General data, like address and telephone number, etc., is maintained for every customer. This data is
    only identified by the customer number, not by company code or sales area. Maintaining the data is
    possible from both the accounting view and the sales and distribution view.
    Company code data is only of interest for the accounting department. It includes, for example,
    information on insurance or account management. This data applies to only one company code.
    Sales and distribution data is only of interest for the sales and distribution department. It includes, for
    example, data on pricing or shipping. This data only applies to one sales area, and therefore is
    dependent on the sales structure (sales organization, distribution channel, division).
    Would you have different customer numbers if your customer was serviced by more than
    one company code?
    No.
    Would you have different customer numbers if your customer was serviced by more than
    one sales organization?
    No.
    A material is produced in plant Boston, plant Dallas and in plant Chicago. How many
    different material master number do you need?
    Only one.
    Is it possible to have different data for the same customer for different sales areas?
    Yes.
    Give examples of general data in the customer master record ?
    Address, Control data, Marketing, Payment transactions, Contact person, Unloading points.
    Give examples of general data in the material master record ?
    This level contains the data applicable to all individual group companies, all plants, and all
    warehouses/stores belonging to an enterprise (corporate group). Examples of general data are details
    on a material's design (CAD drawings, for instance) and storage conditions (temperature range,
    whether the material is explosive or perishable, and so on).
    Give examples of company codespecific data in the customer master record?
    This data is only of importance to the accounting department. It includes, for example, data on
    insurance and account management. Company code data only applies to one company code. If you
    edit the customer master record you must specify customer number and company code in order to
    access the screens containing company code data.
    Which plant*specific data do you find in the material master record?
    4
    SD SAMPLE CERTIFIED QUESTION
    This level contains the data for each branch or plant location within a certain company. The data
    important to Purchasing is stored at this level. Examples of this data are the maximum and minimum
    order quantities of a material and the reorder level. You access the plant data by entering the plant
    key.
    If a customer wishes to receive goods on Tuesdays only, how could you ensure that in the
    SAP R/3 system?
    This can be done by specifying goods receiving hours * Time schedule of ship*to party which specifies
    the days and times that goods can be delivered.
    Do you find any sales prices in the material master record?
    Yes.
    Name at least five different partner functions.
    Examples of partner functions in Sales and Distribution:
    soldto party, shipto party, bill*to party, payer.
    Examples of partner functions (roles) in Materials Management:
    ordering address, supplier of goods, invoicing party, different payee.
    Which are the two partner functions in SD that have to be maintained in FI too ?
    sold*to party, payer.
    Can you assign a material to more than one division?
    No.
    If you want to create language specific sales texts for your material master, would you have
    to create a new material master record?
    No.
    What is a material type and which material types do you know?
    Raw materials, semi*finished products, finished products, trading goods, operating supplies.
    Name the four standard industry sectors in SAP for the material master. For what do you use
    them?
    Branch of industry.
    The industry sector groups together companies according to their activities (for example, plant
    engineering and construction, mechanical engineering, the chemical industry, and the pharmaceutical
    industry).
    Table*driven program support is provided via the industry sector: for example, for the selection of
    data fields on*screen, for the sequence of the screens, and for the allocation of a material to a
    material type.
    For what or why do you use the classification system in sales? Give examples of objects you
    can classify in R/3.
    For e.g., Variant Pricing of configurable products. Objects can be customers, products, condition types.
    Does storage*location specific data in the material master record apply for each plant?
    This level contains the data specific to a storage location. Stock levels are an example of the data
    maintained for each storage location. You access the storage location data by entering the plant and
    storage location codes.
    This data structure facilitates the organization of material*related information within the entire
    enterprise. It prevents redundant storage of material data when the same material is used in more
    than one plant or stored at more than one storage location.
    Example: Suppose the same metal casting is stored at two different locations. The design and
    purchasing data for this material would be identical. However, the data on the stock levels at each
    location would differ.
    Name at least four views of the material master record.

    . Accounting : Valuation and costing information. Examples: standard price, past and future
    price, and current valuation.
    . Materials planning and control: Information for material requirements planning (MRP) and
    consumption*based planning/inventory control. Examples: safety stock level, planned delivery
    time, and reorder level for a material.
    . Purchasing: Data provided by Purchasing for a material. Examples: purchasing group
    responsible for a material, over* and underdelivery tolerances, and the order unit.
    . Engineering: Engineering and design data on a material. Examples: CAD drawings, basic
    dimensions, and design specifications.
    . Storage: Information relating to the storage/warehousing of a material. Examples: unit of
    issue, storage conditions, and packaging dimensions.
    . Forecasting: Information for predicting material requirements. Examples: how the material is
    procured, forecasting period, and past consumption/usage.
    . Sales and distribution: Information for sales orders and pricing. Examples: sales price,
    minimum order quantity, and the name of the sales department responsible for a certain
    material.
    What are the possible units of measure for a material?
    A material can be stored, transported and sold in various units of measure. In the SAP R/3 System,
    you can therefore define various units of measure which are maintained in the sales and distribution
    screens. However, you only need to maintain the fields of the units of measure if they deviate from the
    base unit of measure. If no other fields with units of measure are maintained, the system
    automatically takes the base unit of measure as a basis for its calculations. You can enter the following
    units of measure in the sales and distribution screens:
    . Base unit of measure : Stocks of a material are managed in the base unit of measure. All
    quantity movements in other units of measure are converted automatically by the system into
    the base unit of measure.
    . Alternative unit of measure: If a product is managed in the base unit of measure "Piece" but is
    sold in the sales unit "Box", you must define the conversion factor. The alternative unit of
    measure can define, for example, that 1 box of this material contains 12 pieces.
    . Sales unit : The unit of measure in which materials are sold is referred to as a sales unit (for
    example, piece or bottle). The value you define in the material master record is proposed
    during business transactions relevant for sales, such as the sales order. You can replace them
    with other alternative units of measure in the sales order.
    . Delivery Unit : The delivery unit refers to the unit in which materials can be delivered. Only
    exact multiples of the delivery unit can be delivered. For example, with a delivery unit of 30
    bottles, 30, 60 or 90 bottles can be delivered, but not 100 bottles.
    . Quantity Specifications: Two different quantity specifications are used:
    . Minimum order quantity: The minimum order quantity refers to the minimum quantity the
    customer must order. A warning message appears if the minimum order quantity is not
    reached during order entry. The order can be entered in spite of the warning message.
    . Minimum delivery quantity : The minimum delivery quantity refers to the minimum quantity
    you must deliver to the customer. The minimum delivery quantity is automatically checked
    during delivery processing. A warning message appears during delivery processing if you enter
    a delivery quantity lower than the minimum delivery quantity. The delivery can be created in
    spite of this warning message.
    What is a Bill of material?
    A bill of material is a complete, formally structured list of the components that make up a product or
    assembly. The list contains the object number of each component, together with the quantity and unit
    of measure. The components are known as BOM items. A bill of material can only refer to a quantity of
    at least 1 of an object.
    Is the BOM used in the PP module only?
     No. Also used in SD.

    SD SAMPLE CERTIFIED QUESTION
    Explain what a routing is?
    Routing contains the operations required in production, and the production resources/tools, material
    components, and test equipment required to produce the product.
    What is a work center?
    A work center is an organizational unit where a work step is carried out, producing an output. The
    work center defines where and by whom an operation is to be carried out. A cost center is assigned to
    each work center in the work center master record. The work center has a particular available
    capacity. The activities performed at or by the work center are valuated by charge rates, which are
    determined by cost centers and activity types. Work centers can be: Machines, People, Production
    lines, Groups of craftsmen .
    IN Personnel Planning and Development (PD) work centers are the physical locations where tasks are
    carried out. A work center can represent anything as general as a geographic location, for example,
    the New York branch office. Or work centers can be very precisely defined. For example, a work center
    could represent a specific workstation, with specific tools and equipment, on a specific floor, of a
    specific building.
    IN Workflow Management a work center is a particular place which has been set up specifically so that
    employees can perform their duties within the corporate work system using working materials.
    What does the account group of the customer /vendor control?
    A collection of properties of accounts which determine the creation of master records.
    The account group determines the data that is relevant for the master record and a number range
    from which numbers are selected for the master records.
    Each master record must be assigned to an account group.
    Changes to the account group and the accompanying partner functions can only be made from a lower
    level to a higher level. For example, this means that a sold*to party cannot be assigned the function of
    a payer as fields which have already been maintained for this sold*to party would have to be masked.
    However, you can assign the sold*to party function to a payer.
    The account group ensures that for the different partner functions of a customer only the necessary
    screens and fields are displayed for input.
    What are the two possible ways of control for the cost of a material in the material master
    record?
    Standard Price, Moving Average Price.
    What is a valuation class?
    Allocation of a material to a group of G/L accounts.
    Along with other factors, the valuation class determines the G/L accounts to be updated as a result of
    a valuation*relevant transaction (for example, a goods movement).
    Which valuation classes are valid depends on the material type. Several valuation classes
    can be valid for one material type. A valuation class can be valid for several material types.
    A customer master record in SD is also an A/R(accounts receivables)in FI. When you create a customer
    master record you also have to specify the reconciliation account. For what is the reconciliation
    account used?
    Account in G/L accounting, to which automatic entries are posted during a business activity. It is
    generally the case that several subledger accounts post to a common reconciliation account. This
    ensures that the developments in the subledger accounts are accurately reflected in the general ledger
    (i.e. in line with balance sheet conventions). You can set up a reconciliation account for, say, all
    overseas customers.

    IV INTRODUCTION TO ORDER MANAGEMENT & SALES
    Briefly describe the types and structure of the sales document and give examples of data
    that you find on the different levels.
    Sales*related business transactions are recorded in the system as sales documents. There are, broadly
    speaking, four different groupings of sales documents:
    Sales queries, such as inquiries and quotations
    Sales orders
    Outline agreements, such as contracts and scheduling agreements
    Customer problems and complaints, such as free of charge deliveries and credit memo requests.
    Header Data
    The general data that is valid for the entire document is recorded in the document header. This data
    includes the:
    number of the sold*to party
    number of the ship*to party and the payer
    document currency and exchange rate
    pricing elements for the entire document
    delivery date and shipping point
    Item Data
    Whereas data in the document header applies to all items in the document, some data applies only to
    specific items. This data is stored at item level and includes the:
    material number
    target quantity for outline agreements
    number of the shipto party and the payer (an alternative shipto party or payer can be defined for a
    particular item)
    plant and storage location specifications
    pricing elements for the individual items
    Schedule Line Data
    An item consists of one or more schedule lines. The schedule line contains all the data that is needed
    for a delivery. For example, a customer orders 20 pieces of a material and you enter this as an item in
    the sales order. However, you can only deliver 10 pieces now and the remaining 10 pieces next month.
    In other words, you need to schedule two deliveries. The data for these deliveries (dates, confirmed
    quantities) are stored in two separate schedule lines. In sales documents where delivery data is not
    relevant *for example: contracts, credit and debit memo requests * the system does not create any
    schedule lines.
    Data recorded in the schedule lines includes the:
    schedule line quantity
    delivery date
    confirmed quantity
    What is the difference between an inquiry and quotation ?
    . Inquiry: Request made to a vendor for a quotation for required materials or services.
    No availability check is done for inquiry.
    . Quotation: Offer from a vendor to a purchasing organization regarding the supply of materials
    or performance of services subject to predefined terms and conditions.
    A quotation consists of a number of items, in which the total quantity and delivery date of an
    offered material or service are specified.
    The total quantity can be subdivided into several partial quantities with different delivery dates in the
    lines of a delivery schedule.
    Do you always have to have a material master record number when you enter an item on a
    sales document (inquiry and quote)? If not what would you have to use to be able to enter
    information at item level?
    No. Customer Material Information or Material Description.
    If a customer doesn't place an order with you after you have sent him a quotation, what happens to
    the quotation document?
    Remains active till the end of validity period.

    Yes. Product Selection / Material Determination.
    Give a definition of replenishment lead time?
    Total time for the inhouse production or for the external procurement of a product. In inhouse
    production the replenishment lead time is determined to cover all BOM levels.
    What's the difference between checking availability with or without replenishment lead time (RLT)?
    With RLT : Availability check is done only upto end of RLT. If material is not available the date on
    which RLT ends is displayed as Material Availability Date.
    Without RLT : Availability check is unrestricted. Displays Delivery Dates as on which partial deliveries
    can be made with available stock.
    Name at least three item categories?

    Free of charge Items: AFNN, AGNN, TANN.
    Non*stock Items : AFX, AGX, TAX.
    Text Items : AFTX, AGTX, TATX.
    Why would you use different item and schedule line categories?
    Item categories are defined to provide additional control functions for the sales documents and thus
    meet the demands resulting from the different business transactions.
    The items in a sales document are divided into one or more schedule lines. These schedule lines differ
    from each other with respect to date and quantity. For some schedule lines, material requirements
    planning is not carried out; for other schedule lines, it is carried out. Also goods receipt, not goods
    issue, is posted for a schedule line defined in a returns document.
    Can you change existing standard item categories?
    Yes.

    Inward and outward movements : purchase orders, purchase requisitions, planned orders, production
    orders, reservations, dependent reservations, dependent requirements, sales requirements, delivery
    requirements.
    Give some examples of sales document types (description, not necessary the short code)
    that already set up in the standard system?
    Indicator used to control the processing of the various sales documents which are defined in the
    system. E.g., OR, SO, BV, KR. Document types allow the system to process different kinds of business
    transactions, such as standard orders and credit memo requests, in different ways.
    Can you maintain texts for a specific customer and store them in the system? If yes, where?
    Yes. Customer Material Information.
    When the system checks availability which scheduling would it use first?
    Backward Scheduling.
    Name the influencing factors for the determination of the availability date?
    The following data is required for determining this date:
    Route from the shipping point to the ship*to party location
    Shipping point from which the goods are issued
    Loading group from the material master record
    Weight group determined from the order using the order quantity.
    Name the three delivery possibilities when there is not enough stock available?
    One Time Delivery, Complete Delivery, Partial Deliveries.
    Can you think of an example why you would have to create a text for a customer and copy it
    to the sales order?
    Customer specific instructions.
    What is the function of item category group?
    The item category group determines how a material is processed in the sales order. It defines, for
    example, that pricing does not take place for a free of charge item, such as a business gift; or that
    inventory management is not carried out for a service. When processing sales and distribution
    documents, the system uses the item category group to determine the item category. The system
    determines the item category based on the item category group of the material and the current
    business transaction, and proposes it in the respective document.
    When creating the material types non*stock material and services, DIEN is proposed in both cases for
    the item category group, because the order processing for both material types is identical: for
    example, pricing is carried out for both, but no availability check.
    On sales order, when the system confirms 20 pieces to be available at a certain date, would
    these 20 pieces still be available for other new sales order coming in later?
    No.
    What is a delivery group and why would you use it?
    12
    SD SAMPLE CERTIFIED QUESTION
    The complete delivery and delivery group functions enable you to combine some or all of the items in a
    sales order so that they are delivered to the customer together. The system determines automatically
    the latest delivery date possible for the delivery group and adjusts the schedule lines accordingly.
    Corresponding requirements for material requirements planning (MRP) are changed or re*determined.
    What is backorder processing?
    The backorder processing functions enable you to list relevant sales documents for specific materials
    and process them from the point of view of availability. You can assign available to promise (ATP)
    stock to outstanding order quantities. In addition, you can withdraw already confirmed quantities and
    reassign them to different items.
    Backorder processing is only available for materials with individual requirements.
    Can you link items in a sales order? If yes, when would you do that?
    Yes. Promotional Items.
    For what would you use BOMu2019S in sales? What two methods of BOM processing do you have
    in sales order entry? How can you control if the system should/should not explode a BOM in
    the sales order.
    A bill of material (BOM) describes the different components that together create a product. A BOM for
    a bicycle, for example, consists of all the parts that make up the bicycle: the frame, the saddle,
    wheels, and so on. When you enter the material number of a bill of materials that is relevant for sales
    order processing, the system displays the material that describes the whole bill of materials as a main
    item. The components are displayed as sub*items.
    Processing by Main Item : ERLA & Processing by Sub*Item : LUMF
    BOM explosion can be prevented by specifying Item Category Group as NORM.
    Credit limit checks is an example of a very close link between which two SAP modules?
    SD & FI.
    What are the two techniques in delivery scheduling?
    Backward Scheduling & Forward Scheduling.
    How does a third party deal work? Do you use a special sales order type for that? How could
    the system know that you want to process a third party deal?

    No special order type is available.
    By the item category group and/or material type in Material Master .
    Name the several steps in consignment processing.
    Consignment fillup, Consignment issue, Consignment pickup, Consignment return.
    Whatu2019s the difference between consignment pick*up and consignment return?
    In consignment pick*up, customer returns consignment stock. When goods issue is posted, the
    relevant quantity is deducted from the customer's special stock and is added back to regular stock at
    the plant where the goods are returned. Total valuated stock remains the same since the returned
    stock was regarded as part of inventory even while it was at the customer's premises.This transaction
    is not relevant for billing.
    In consignment return, customer wishes to claim on consignment goods which have already been
    issued. When goods issue is posted, the relevant quantity is added to the customer's special stock at
    the plant where the goods are returned. Since the ownership of the goods is passed from the customer
    back to the company, the transaction is relevant for billing. In this case, the customer receives a credit
    memo for the returned goods.
    Can you control that an end user cannot copy a quote of customer A to a sales order for
    customer B? If yes, where?
    Yes. By customizing Copying Control for header data.

    Can you combine several sales orders into one delivery document ? If no, why not? If yes,
    would the system check certain criteria? What criteria?
    No. When ship*to party or plant is different.
    Yes. Availability of all items are confirmed.
    Name a few prerequisites that have to be fulfilled if you want to create a delivery for the order.
    Header Level
    There cannot be a delivery block at header level.
    The sales document must contain at least one item due for delivery before a delivery can be created
    for this document.
    Item Level and Schedule Line Level
    The schedule line must be due for shipping on the specified selection date.
    A schedule line becomes due for shipping as soon as the material availability date or the transportation
    scheduling date is reached.
    The schedule line cannot be blocked for delivery.
    The delivery quantity must be greater than one.
    The items in the order must be fully processed.
    If they are incomplete, you must first edit the incompleteness log in the order. You will find
    information on the incompleteness log in the R/3 SD online documentation on sales.
    The product status of the material must permit delivery.
    For example, the product status for new products which have not been released for delivery does not
    allow them to be included in a delivery.
    Sufficient quantity of the material must be available.
    If you create a delivery, would this automatically update the sales order?
    14
    SD SAMPLE CERTIFIED QUESTION
    Yes. The delivery status of the entire order results from the delivery status of the items. Until all items
    in the order have been fully delivered, the order has the status "Partially delivered". The entire
    document acquires the status of fully delivered once all the items have been fully delivered.
    Name the different ways of creating deliveries.
    Partial Deliveries, Complete Deliveries, Deliveries without reference, Grouped Deliveries.
    How does the system determine the shipping point and the route in the sales order?
    A shipping point can be determined for each order item. How the shipping point is determined depends
    on three factors:
    The shipping conditions from the customer master record (Shipping screen). A condition might be that
    the goods are to be delivered to the customer as soon as possible.
    The loading group from the material master record (Sales/Plant Data screen).You could, for example,
    specify a loading group that defines that the goods must always be loaded with a crane or a fork lift.
    The delivering plant. This plant is determined per order item either from the customer master record
    or from the material master record. However, you can also enter it manually for each order item. You
    will find detailed information on determining the delivering plant in the sales order in the R/3 SD online
    documentation on sales.
    Can you change the shipping point determined in the sales order manually?
    Yes.
    If you have several shipping points in a sales order at item level. What would that have on
    the delivery?
    Each item will individual deliveries.
    Why would you carry out route determination in the delivery again?
    To reconfirm the weight of the item.
    At which different levels can you specify pick/pack and loading time?
    Shipping point determination level : loading time.
    Route determination level : pick/pack time.
    Where do you specify the departure zone and the arrival zone for route determination?
    Shipping point, Ship*to party.
    How can the route influence the material availability date?
    Transit time & Transportation lead time.
    Why would you carry out availability check in the delivery?
    The availability check is calculated using planned inward and outward movements of goods. Therefore
    the delivery situation might have changed in the meantime due to unforeseen circumstances, such as
    lost output. The availability check in the delivery takes any such changes into account.
    Where would you store partial/complete shipment agreements and over/under delivery
    tolerances?
    Customer Master and Customer Material Information.
    Explain the effects of printing out the picking list.
    Updates the picking quantity in the delivery.
    How does the system automatically determine the picking storage location in the delivery?
    Storage Condition.
    Shipping Point.
    Plant.
    What is a transfer order and for what would you use it?
    Document used to support every stock movement in the warehouse.
    It contains all the important movement data, such as the material to be transferred, the quantity to be
    transferred, the storage bins involved, and so on
    Define a shipping unit?
    15
    SD SAMPLE CERTIFIED QUESTION
    Combination of materials which are packed together in a shipping material at a particular time.
    Shipping units contain items which in turn are made up of shipping units or delivery items.
    What effects does goods issue have?
    When the goods have left your plant, the business transaction is regarded as completed from the point
    of view of shipping. When goods are issued, the following functions take place in the system:
    The material stock is reduced by the goods issue quantity and the corresponding value changes take
    place in accounting. This ensures that the quantity and value flows are parallel.
    Material requirements for the delivery are reduced
    The delivery status is updated
    If you bill after goods issue, the delivery enters the billing work list
    How can you delete a good issue?
    You cannot cancel a goods issue posting in isolation. You are also unable to change goods issue
    quantities. If you make a mistake when processing a delivery, or if the goods are damaged leaving
    your plant and cannot be delivered, you must cancel the entire business transaction.
    Procedure
    After you have invoiced the delivery, for which the incorrect goods issue posting was carried
    out, proceed as follows:
    1. Enter a returns order (order type RE) for the customer and the material involved.
    2. Create a returns delivery for the returns order. The system proposes the delivery type. The
    delivery quantities in the returns delivery must correspond to the goods issue quantities in the
    incorrect goods issue document.
    3. Post "goods issue" for the returns delivery. The system automatically recognizes the returns
    delivery as goods receipt and clears the original goods issue posting by carrying out reverse
    posting.
    4. Invoice the business transaction with a returns credit memo. The system proposes billing
    type. The original billing document for the incorrect goods issue document is cleared by this
    credit memo.
    Is it possible to work without specifying a pick/pack or loading time for a shipping point?
    Yes.
    When do you initiate packing activity*before or after goods issue? What is the material type
    for shipping material?
    Before goods issue . VERP.
    When you post goods issue after packing, which two documents do you create?
    Picking List, Invoice.
    Can the delivery quantity and the picking quantity in the delivery document be *different?
    Yes.
    PRICING
    Could you explain what condition technique in SAP is?
    Hierarchy of elements defining a data combination which leads to certain actions.
    In pricing the condition technique refers to the method by which the system determines prices from
    information stored in condition records. In Sales and Distribution, the various elements used in the
    condition technique are set up and controlled in Customizing. During sales order processing, the
    system uses the condition technique to determine a variety of important pricing information.
    Name three areas/processes which use condition technique in SD?
    Material determination, Output determination, Account determination.
    16
    SD SAMPLE CERTIFIED QUESTION
    What are the four basic elements of condition technique?
    Condition Types, Condition Tables, Access Sequences, Pricing Procedures.
    Please explain graphically the relationship between the four basic elements in condition techniques?
    Procedures à Condition Types à Access Sequence à Condition Tables à Condition Records.
    Explain what a pricing procedure is?
    The primary job of a pricing procedure is to define a group of condition types in a particular sequence.
    The pricing procedure also determines:
    Which sub*totals appear during pricing
    To what extent pricing can be influenced manually
    Which method the system uses to calculate percentage discounts and surcharges
    which requirements for a particular condition type must be fulfilled before the system takes the
    condition into account.
    Explain what a condition table and an access sequence is and the relationship between
    them?
    A condition table defines the combination of fields (the key) that identifies an individual condition
    record. A condition record is how the system stores the specific condition data that you enter in the
    system as condition records. For example, when you enter the price for a product or a special discount
    for a good customer, you create individual condition records.
    An access sequence is a search strategy that the system uses to find valid data for a particular
    condition type. It determines the sequence in which the system searches for data. The access
    sequence consists of one or more accesses. The sequence of the accesses establishes which condition
    records have priority over others. The accesses tell the system where to look first, second, and so on,
    until it finds a valid condition record. You specify an access sequence for each condition type for which
    you create condition records.
    What is a condition type? What are the two main groups of condition types?
    A condition type is a representation in the system of some aspect of your daily pricing activities. For
    example, you can define a different condition type for each kind of price, discount, or surcharge that
    occurs in your business transactions.
    Fixed Amount & Percentage.
    Is SD the only module that uses condition technique?
    No.
    What is a condition supplement and why would you use it?
    A condition supplement is a supplement for a particular condition type. For example, you can include a
    supplement every time you apply a material price. The supplement can contain various discounts.
    During pricing, the system automatically applies the discounts defined in the supplement every time it
    accesses a material price. You define for which condition types you want to use condition supplements
    in Customizing for Sales.
    Which partner function is relevant when it comes to tax calculation in the sales order?
    Ship*to party.
    Name at least three different condition types in pricing?
    Price, Discounts, Freight. PROO, K007, KF00.
    You can create scales for prices and discounts. Name the four possible scale basis in R/3.
    Value, Quantity, Gross weight, Net weight, Volume.
    Where would you specify that a condition type is a discount or a surcharge?
    In Condition Type Details Screen.
    If somebody adds price elements manually in the sales order or if somebody changes a
    discount the system determined automatically, do you have a possibility to see that in the
    sales order?
    Yes.
    You want to list all condition records for a certain material or a certain sales organization.
    How would you do that?
    17
