Sap career in which module - reg.

Hello Guru's
This is challa, from Hyderabad, i have lot of doubts in choosing the sap career. I found many sap modules in which i can't find to choose.
i am working as a Logistics executive (import & Export) in a company, i am very much interested in SAP. My Aim is to get a job in SAP industry.
So, please suggest me sir which module is suitable to move forward in SAP, i am very much confused so please kindly help me sir.
now my age is 29 yrs is this age is write to get job in SAP. so please give me complete guidance sir.
Regards
CHALLA

Hi Sudhakar,
The best suitable module / system suits for you is SAP SD (cover logistics) & Foreign Trade and SAP Global Trade Services (Compliance, Customer, Risk Management.
SAP SD Covers logistic execution and Foreign Trade, however nowadays SAP trying to split all modules in big a way due to Globalization. If you look at SAP SD - Foreign Trade that becomes SAP Global Trade Services as separate system.
The quite secret is domain experience never counts in IT industry but that would be an added advantage for your career as for my experiences in India and outside India. Also, the companies first question is "Whether you have relevant SAP experience or are you holding any SAP certification" you can experience when you apply for a job.
Age side, there is no restriction of age to enter into SAP because when I studied in SAP Authorized Training Institute there were two guys whose age was 40 and 41 years and another two guys were 36 years old. That was a great boost to me when I joined at 29 years to take a certification and I started my SAP career at 29 years only.
You know one thing, all those guys got a job in only in CMM Level 5 companies in India, you have to believe you and your passion, patience and perseverance end of the day. Because those Mid 30 years and 40 years old guys were succeeded already then why can't you.
Our guys already pointed lot of things to you... Take a slow step one by one and try to get into SAP. Do not urge you and take the step. Do not leave your current job and take the step. So, take it very slowly and precisely.
How will I take step?
1. Go to SAP Authorized Training and take a certification
2. Go to SAP Training Training and Certification Shop and Take the training & certification.
3. Be patient and apply the job and set your target (give 3 to 6 months time) to get into SAP or become SAP Consultant.

Dear all,

I dont have any experience in SAP, but want to learn and get into SAP career.....how do I begin please suggest
Thanks

vapin,
Search for online training institutes on the net. Each of these gives a demo. By attending the demo make a selection of the institute.
On Youtube too, there are lots of SD training videos. Check those.
TW
Added: A good trainer will have the following:
1 - give business examples, to explain functionalities
e.g. intercompany sale process: the process from his experience, what are the key benefits to business etc.
IMP: Functional consultant is first about understanding the business process and second about configuration etc. in SAP
2 - patience
he should not be reluctant to answer your questions properly
he should sense how you are understanding the concepts, and take necessary actions
3 - mentor
what should be your next steps - how to prepare SD, how to prepare your resume, how to prepare for interviews etc. etc.

I found that each module demands in depth research wherein the university is going to provide general views on each module.
I would like to have your advice on SAP career journey. I do understood that i need to gain mastery in any one module to start employment with any organization. As such you seniors have vast experience in SAP, would you pl. advise me which module should pick up to gain in-depth knowledge looking towards to future demand. I m likely to finish Master of Business in ERP by Jan 2009.
Seeking your guidance.

Testing Career: Is there any SAP career growth???

Dear SAP Experts,
I am SAP SD Certified fresher, completed certification in Oct.2013.
I joined one of the reputed MNC in June 2014.I was happy thinking that I got entry in SAP but soon my happiness converted into sorrowness because after spending 40 days in the company I got testing project.
In this project my responsibility is to take care testing part.Client is rolling out SAP regionwise and outsourced testing part to my company but there is not much exposure to SAP.
Now there are numerous questions in my mind:
1) Shall I continue this role or search a new job(but getting new job would very tough as I am fresher)?
2) Is this testing project affect my SAP career?
3) Going forward what are different things I should learn so that I will get good hike after 2 yrs if I continue this role.
4) Shall I join any institute which will give me insight about support or implementation project so that I can show in next intw(after 2 yrs) even if I worked in testing project i know process of implementation or I know the types of tickets and all other stuff
Kindly guide me.
Regards,
Abhijeet.

Hi Abhijeet,
This is sad part but I don't want to demotivate you more as this is your first job in SAP career.
"Which road you take that will lead your growth". The problem is if you are starting as testing career then you will move on to same testing roles and will not get any SD implementation or support opportunity. Just ask them, would you able to be part of Support or Implementation project.
Positive side: Sometimes if your project likes you, then you will move into SAP implementation project down the line, due to increasing demand of skills in your project. I have seen many people in the past and recently projects recruited as testing guy then moved into functional roles on implementation.
Testing may be ok in the beginning but do not stay longer because your profile not worthy in future. Look for better opportunity if they ask you stay more than 6 or 1 year in same testing roles.
Career Path for Testing - Test Analyst, Senior Test Analyst -> Testing Manager -> Testing Director
Career Path for Functional Consultant - Functional Consultant -> Senior Functional Consultant -> Functional Lead -> Solution Architect or Project Manager -> Programme Manager

SAP career with BPO experience

HI All,
I have worked for BPO organization(Banking- residential Mortgage)for 8 years and overall I have 12 years of experience.
Now I am planning of taking up career in SAP. Can you please guide me.
Abt my self :
Commerce graduate, started my career in Sales FMCG products. Last worked for BPO organization wherein supporting the Leading North Americans banks Mortgage domain.
If I take up SAP FI/CO, will that help me in career ? Is SAP certification is necessary to get the job?
Awaiting reply
Please advise,

Sunshine
Having domain experience in manufacturing/ supply chain is useful, and in my mind, a necessary pre-requisite for being a good SAP SCM functional consultant. However, the reality is that the industry does not value domain experience as much as they should, especially most offshoring companies in India.
Certification/ Training are somewhat useful, but they don't gaurentee anything, least of all getting a job. My advice is always first be sure if you want to switch career tracks from domain to consulting. Remember that the grass is greener.....Talk to people already in the area about travel requirements, working hours, etc.
But if you are certain, the best way is to probably to join an SAP implementation partner. Talk to them about your interest in SAP SCM and domain background. Be prepared to start from the first rung of a very tall ladder. Try to get on an SCM project even if its a support role. Get involved in internal activities such as proposal development, pre-configured solutions. See if they will sponsor certification/ training.
Opportunities in SAP SCM are a mixed bag. Projects are smaller compared to ERP implementations, so number of resources required are fewer. On the other hand number of available skilled resources is also smaller. Supply Chain Planning is a high priority for clients, but many of them don't have the maturity level required to implement advanced planning systems or are unwilling to commit to the effort/ expense.
Best of luck and keep the sun shining high !

Suggestion needed in SAP career

Hi Forum,
I have one year experiance as abaper. I want to excel in my career..Could you please suggest me what I can learn further to have excellent growth in the SAP field..
Kindly respond..
Thanks & Regards
Mallika

Hi,
What is your current role or rather r u in a project ?
What you need to do is to try and be more techno-functional, because just being an abaper is not enough. After a certain point of time you will start feeling redundant.
If you are in a project try and make the make the best use of your time(not during you project deadlines). Try to learn ABAP webdynpro, there are lots of tutorials available on help.sap.com/ sdn.
Whenever you are given a task by the functional consultant try and find the business use of it rather than thinking how to do the program/ screen etc.
This way you will learn more and advance in your career faster, rather than getting bookish knowledge you will be seen as a person who can not only talk technical but also functional.
I hope this helps.
Regards,
Narayani

Reg: SAP-MM Experience

Dear All Guru's,
I am intrested to pursue SAP-MM Course, But i heard that B. Tech's guys only suits for that.
As i have got ERP Implementation Experience of 2 years in SME ERP Package and got 1 1/2 of sales Experience.
So,Can u people plz guide me for my better career. Can u tell me the Good institute also to Pursue SAP-MM in Hyderabad apart of Siemens.
Thanks
Regards
Muralidharan

Dear Muralidharan,
Its not mandatory that u need to be a B.Tech graduate for pursuing a career in SAP only thing is u need to be very strong in Functional domain with good understanding of SAP MM module. I have seen many guys who are BSC graduates but still doing gr8 in SAP.Infact my instructor while I was learing SAP MM was a BSC graduate with very good functional experience, now he is a project leader in a big MNC so dont get disappointed and motivate urself to take up the challenge and race ahead.Now the second aspect is getting a job, I have seen many companies taking consultants other than BTECH guys provided they are sound enough to meet their Technical and Functional requirements. Since u hav implementation and functional experience u can easily go for a course in SAP MM and also suggest for getting <b>certified</b> in MM after completion of your course.
Coming to good institutes I suggest you to for a good faculty rather than searching for good a institute.Take the list of all available institutes in Hyderabad go and have a talk with the students already getting trained there, they will tell u better about the faculty and lab facilities of the institute.I can suggest you to go for Reliance or Vcentric.Dont blindly follow my suggestion, go and hav a talk with students over there to get correct info.
Buddy race ahead nothing can prevent you if u r determined,committed and have the zeal to achieve ur career in SAP.
Thanks and Regards,
Uzair Hussain.
