SAP Basis basics and routine

I currently work as a business consultant on SAP systems for a number of clients and I wanted to share some pointers.
Tracking and troubleshooting, then vice versa; This is a general rule of thumb to follow never do one without the other.
First Identify the problem or request and make an action plan you will use to get the result. Documenting and generalizing processes.
Protection of customer data and routine backups are key to ensuring that you have a failsafe.
create a list of task and map out your day before you even look at tickets or request so that you can efficiently fill the gaps with tickets you create from issues that you find on your on. it's best to look for issues rather than to wait for them.
Identify, Rectify, and Simplify.

Hi,
Please repost as blog or document not as discussion. Thanks for sharing your points.
Thanks & Regards,

SAP Basis administrators role on new dimensional products like BW, EP, SRM

Hello All,
I have been working as a SAP basis administrator and still fail to understand what are the main administrative roles as a SAP BASIS administrator on new dimentional products like BW, EP, SRM, MDM etc. aprt from installing them and basic security work.
The respective technical consultants are already present like BW consultant, EP consultant but in the intervies/job portals they ask a SAP Basis administrator for administrative experience on new dimentional products.
Can anyone clear these doubts.
Thank you

My opinion if it need for your enterprise (and you can learn it on sap courses for example) not problem to administrate this products, every BW or EP or SRM has a part of Basis adm. and every of them are on ABAP or JAVA .... But special settings and configuring BW for example are under BW administartors protection...
It differs from the opportunities of Enterprises and knowledge of a particular person ...

Hi,
Just use Trinidad's, I don't think 11g has an equivalent and Chris suggestion won't really work in this case as visible="false" is the same as rendered="false" for decoding purpose and you want it to be decoded in your case. Another poor man's solution would be

Lean & Agile For SAP Basis Tasks

I am currently working on a project that uses the Lean & Agile approach for functional implementation. I was just wondering if anyone has used this approach from an SAP Basis side and if so can you please point me in the direction for some documentation?
Any experience you can share will be most appreciated!
Thanks!

Generating Proxies for SAP Basis Objects?

All,
Is it possible to generate proxies for your interfaces under SAP Basis Component?
1. I checked in SPROXY on my R3 and the SAP Basis Component is not displayed here.What I also noticed is that none of the SWCV's containing Pre Delivered Integration Content is displayed in SPROXY.
Is it necessary that the options , All Objects are Modifiable and Original Objects be selected for Proxies to be generated on the SAP Shipped SWCV's?
2. As a work around ( one which did not work ) I created a Depenedency in the SLD for my SWCV on the SAP BASIS Swcv and I am now able to see the BASIS Objects in the IR under my Custom SWCV .
But even then in SPROXY , (basis Objects )message interfaces are not displayed.
Has anyone tried something of this sort? Is there some setting we need to do to enable proxy generation for SAP Delivered Components?
Regards
Bhavesh
PS: I am able to see my custom SWCV in SPROXY and trigger proxy calls Successfully.
I can generate a Custom Messge interface using the Message Type of the SAP Basis Component and create the Proxy to this Message interface . But, I just want to know if anyone has had success with the above concepts

>but they are already generated... do you see that ?
I did notice it. But didnt dig deep enough . Will give this a real close look tom morning .
>>>>Does this imply, that we cannot generae proxies on SAP Basis Components?
indeed
That answered my Question Thanks for the info.
I guess I will have to create a message Interface will the Message Type from the BASIS Component and use this Message Interface.
The only issue I am now wondering with this approach would be, what if the Message Type structure changes during some SP upgrade? Due to some new feature being added?
Any experiences to share michal?
Thanks a bunch for all those inputs.
Regards
Bhavesh

Shift from SAP-Basis to SAP-BI

Hello Friends,
I am a SAP-Basis consultant and my company wants me to shift to SAP-BI. Can you please tell me if this is a good move and if anyone has actually moved from Basis to BI please do share your experience. Let me know approximate time it would take for a SAP-Basis consultant to shift to SAP-BI.
Are there any techniques which will help me in smooth transition to this module.
Thanks!!

Hi Zaheer,
Welcome to SAP BI forums.
First of all there many people who have changed from one module to another module in SAP. You can see many ABAPers who shift to BI. To get into BI first you need to have knowledge of SAP BW, once you learn BW then you can go to BI. There are few differences between them. I think you can easily get accoustomed with. In BW/BI also we have some authorizations. In BW/BI there are three main areas. 1.Modeling 2. Reporting and 3. Extraction. In future the reporting that is the Bex part will get changed to SAP BO according to the road map. Once you learn BI then you can shift to SAP BPC which is a part of EPM (enterprise performance management) which have BPC in the front end and BI at the back end. Its always good to learn new modules to keep ourselves tuned in.
Hope it helps.
Regards,
Raghu.

How to get a Job as SAP BASIS Fresher

Hello Master's,
I'm Raju Maddu and I'm from Vizag (Visakhapatnam). I have completed my B.Tech in Computer Science and Engineering at 2012. Once I've completed B.Tech, I started my career in the Education industry as System Administrator along with CCNA training at NIIT. And I have 2 years experience in that field.
I did a lot of research and I found that I have a good career ahead of me in the SAP BASIS domain. I joined a institute and I did the BASIS course. They have provided real time training with the SAP BASIS tools and t-codes & Security. And I have real time experience in SAP BASIS.
However, I don't have the SAP certification. I'm trying to get in to the SAP basis field. I also don't know how to reach a right contact for getting a job as a fresher in SAP BASIS.
Please let me know how to get a job as a BASIS fresher. Any help will be very much appreciated.
Regards.

Hi Raju,
its somewhat too tough to get a job in SAP as a fresher, but it doesn't mean that it is impossible.
I will only sujjest you to upload your resume at all leading job-portals, but please search any small
scale industry, where sap has been implemented, and talk to them (i know its not easy, but never
loose your hope anyways).
You have told that, the training institute has provided you real time exposure, but for your kind information, these things are not calculated as a real time exposure in any companies,
if you work in any organization, then only it will be counted.
So, search, search and search, untill you get a job, even in starting if salary will be low, just
catch it, once you will get right exposure, it becomes fruitful for you.

Confusion for switching my career from IT Infrastructure Management to SAP Basis or not?

Hi Guru's,
I am in IT Infrastructure Management and I have more than 10 years of working experience in multiple companies. I have completed MCA, BCA, CCNA and ITIL and in my last job I was Sr. Manager IT.
I started my career as a Customer Support Engineer in 2004 and then promoted as a Network Engineer and then Team Leader and then Project Manager and then Asst. Manager IT and finally Sr. Manager IT. I switched 6 companies (ISP,IT,Pharmaceutical, Education etc.). Unfortunately my field demands lot of hard-work and payed very little(I got only 5 lac pa) on the other hand I saw several people who moved in SAP they get higher salaries and growing rapidly.
I have good knowledge of system administration and network administration. In 2008 to 2011, I worked for a Pharma company(Production Plant) where I saw SAP implementation and was little involved in it. I was involved in client Installation, SAP Solution Manager roll-out etc. I saw SAP basis syllabus and I feel it is easy for me to learn the BASIS fast rather then other SAP modules.
Now my questions are:-
Is it worthwhile for me to switch my career in SAP Basis?
Will the recruiters consider me as a fresher or they consider my experience?
What is the future growth in SAP Basis with our without certification?
Which is the best institute to get the training and job placement?
Your suggestions are appreciable.
Yours faithfully,
Anand

Difference between SAP XI Dev and XI Admin

Hi,
I have worked as SAP basis Administrator and also into HR Security area. However I intend to learn XI/PI 7.0.
I need to know the difference between XI Dev and xi Admin. To my knowledge, XI Dev involves the knowledge of either ABAP or Java. Can anybody help in finding out what prequisites do we need to get into Admin site of it.
Also the scope for Admin professionals.
Your response will be appreciated <removed by moderator>
Edited by: Mike Pokraka on Jul 25, 2008 8:46 AM

Now a days there is much compition in the SAP XI/PI development(Technical consultants...).
Every ABAPer and Java guy is learning XI/PI.
I don't know your technical ablities - I don't think so, U can develop ABAP/Java objects as like as ABAPer/Java guy.
If U know the ABAP/Java already, thats different story. U can start learning XI/PI easily.
As a Basis consultant, comming to Development area, preparing resume... and getting job is........ it seems little bit tuff.
Better you focus in NW admin only. Market for NW admin will be pertty much good( with multiple skills like DBA, all NW components installation knowledge - like APO, CRM, X-Apps...
