Should i Swap my career from hardware engg to Sap Basis Consultant?

Hi,
I am into computer hardware and networking since last 14 years. Now i am planning to go for SAP basis certification. Will it be helpful to obtain a good career? Or i should proceed towards microsoft certification only?
What are the basic requirements to become a SAP Basis consultant?
Thanks in advance
Milind

SAP Certification is always an added advantage those who are seeking a career in SAP. Just check with the Education Partners like Siemens / Genovate / Yash etc for the pre-requisites... One more important thing is SAP Certification is much difficult that Microsoft Certification. Hope this helps

Career for SAP Basis consultant

Dear Friends,
I am into SAP Basis, most of the jobs have been outsourced in UK as such there are hardly any jobs in sap basis . Please can u kindly suggest me what is the next best option for SAP Basis for more career opportunities. Please kindly suggest me, I don't have job for last 10 months.
Thanks.

I am trying to reply all the bullets in your post one by one.
Some of the agencies (AtoS and some others) I have got in touch with to discuss this certification have suggested doing SAP SD or MM certification, keeping my experience in view. If I do it what is your guess how soon I could find a job with this certification.
for training and certification you can go to any SAP authorized institute , you can find many depends upon which country you are presently staying.
What kind of salary will I be able to attract if I do get a job. Currently I am getting good salary by auto industry standards (around $15K). As per the information I have got the starting salaries in these roles are some times less than half of what I am getting now.
if you are already at $15K (1,50,000 US Dollar if i correctly understand) then you are earning much higer then a SAP consultant having a decade experience in SAP. Better look for management job. If salary is the criteria.
Finally how fast is the growth in this industry? Let us say I do the certification spend some $500 and join a company with salary less than half of my current. After doing this, as per your experience how soon will I be able to reach or exceed the salary I would have been getting otherwise (assume I perform fairly well in my SAP role ;-).
refer the above one
So finally should I go ahead with the certification?
Certification is optional , if you just have user level experience you may not be knowing all what comes within an module, i still recommend training as it give you all back ground about SAP and you can understand most of the master data piece to create a right foundation for a module.
Hope this will help you.
Thanks

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

COuld you please advice me, which one to choose,?
Does SAP GRC/Security has demand , and can we get oportunities to work abroad compared to SAP BASIS ?

So request you people to advice me ?

Hi Rakesh
I saw your post in GRC and was waiting of it to appear here
First up - 2 years is still junior. You may find batch jobs, transports, monitoring, etc all mundane but it is a foundation and learning ground work and foundations to being a good Basis Administration. And one things for sure, an awesome basic (I name my best-techy-friend) makes a huge difference on project timelines and deliverables for the rest of us.
Installation and Upgrades come with time. Whilst still performing junior tasks you could focus on reading up on approaches in case an opportunity in your job comes us and be prepared to prove to your management that you are ready for a bigger responsibility.
Switching to GRC/Security would be pointless unless you have a desire to learn GRC or Security. These are my background and they are undervalued until things go wrong (insurance policy in a way).
If you do switch you will reset your 2 years of domain experience back to 0 and you will start off with password resets and basic user administration
It takes time to work through the ranks. It was 3 years before I got to build my first role. I spent my first few years in security on email chasing approvals, password resets, user account creation, running reports for audit - sounds familiar to what you are doing now?
You have to master the basics before you are trusted and ready for the more complex activities. By knowing what you are doing now you will be more successful when the time comes to step up and do migrations, upgrades and installations. Support production by mastering you technical analysis skills is how you can break through being a fresher/junior
Regards
Colleen
Ps - if your motivation is more than "good things" happy to answer questions specific to security and GRC.
Also, boring doesn't mean it can't get interesting nor does it mean it's a worthless activity: SPAU transport imported before patching!!

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.

Raghu.

Role of SAP Functional & Basis Consultant for any new authoirzation/user ID in Support Phase

Dear Expert,
Please let us know what is standard /best practice for below activities in SAP Support phase?
Who will responsible for Authorization Matrix?
Who will be first point of contact (Functional / Basis Consultant) to SAP user for any new authorization request?
Who will do the testing & impact analysis of new authorization?
If we provide any new SAP transaction code to the end user & user is facing authorization object issue then who will be first point of contact for user Functional / Basis Consultant?
Also who will be fist point of contact (Functional / Basis Consultant) for new User ID creation request?
In our current practice Functional consultant is dealing with end user. He is taking requirement of new Report/Transaction access request & doing analysis. Then he is taking approval from BPO & based on BPO approval Functional consultant is providing training to end user. When end user is accepted requested report requirement in standard report or transaction data process then Functional consultant is sending request to Basis consultant along with authorization parameters like Role, Organization parameters, type of activity (create/change/display/delete) etc.
Our Basis consultant is not agreeing for this process & he want to directly deal with end user for all activities & he will take help of Functional consultant if required.
Sorry friends this is not technical discussion but it is create big dispute between our internal support team regarding who will be first point of contact for any authorization related issue?
Regards / Aviya.

Dear Aviya Paul,
1. Who will responsible for Authorization Matrix?
Authorization Matrix that define "what position may have access to which authorization/ role" shall be developed by User (Management), with support from BASIS. User is the one who have the authority to decide, while BASIS should help User in understanding the technical knowledge of access authorization.

Questions WORKFLOW OF SAP BW Consultant in Project

Hellooooooo Exeperts,
Need few answers in understanding the SAP BW Workflow in a Company..Any ANswers to the questions would be highly appreciated as this would help me in making it easier before joining my job..
Please answer the below questions concering an OFFSHORE
BW Consultant working for Imlementation Project..Bcoz thats where i would be standing
1) what exactly are the responsibilities of an SAP BW Consultant in implementation Project?
how does they differ from development project?
2) how will be the work flow right from creation of the project specs (both technicaland functional) to the go-live implementation, how does the peolpe at various hierarchy levels fit in this scenario? like who creates the specs, wher do they send it, who is responsile to verify them? from which point SAP BW Consultant is involved in project, whom should he report to? this kind of work flow..( Related to OFFSHORE DEVELOPMENT CENTER)
3) What r the responsibilities of onshore and offshore people in an implenentation project,what do u mean by a client steering committee, how r they seperate from the rest of the people in the project?
4) How would a technical spec look like any screen shots?......how do they come to u in a soft
or hard copy?....Whom do u approach in case of any clarifictions?....can you specify how the
offshore development centre hierarchy is defined who r the people involved here?
5)Wher will an implementation BW Consultant work in real time( Dev, Prod, or sand box)servers.
after creating the objects needed we transort to QA, how will be the work flow related to
transportation of objects and work flow of handling transport request errors when they arise?
like who reports the errors to whom? this ort of flow..
6) whats the duration of work in DATA Modelling part of the project, how much time does it
take to model objects like cubes, ODS etc by customizing Business Content to satisfy
business requirement?...
7) How often do we interatct with the client or any onsite consultants?
8) what exactly are the roles and resonsibilities of functional, technical people in SAP implementation project?
9) Does LO's and LIS Differentiate Master and Transaction Data in the extraction Process?

>I am interested to find out , what all could be the roles of a PI consultant in a given SAP implementation barring the usual Interface design and implementation. ?
Some knowledge in basis and PI admin is an added plus as I have found from experience that basis is not quite sure of how to solve PI basis issues and many a time comes back to the consultant for help/clarification.
Roles would obviously depend on the project scope but in general we can put them as design, develeopment, testing, some basis/admin roles, scope determination as to where we need to use PI etc.
>In an average, how much of Functional knowledge , a PI consultant would require to have to be successful in an END-END implementation???
Some functional knowledge will always be an added plus but considering that a PI consultant might need to work with different areas, so knowledge in all such areas is definitely not possible.
>What other skills are expectant out of a PI consultant to make him stand apart?
some basic java knowledge (string handling, java beans), Abap knowledge plus knowledge in the SOAP protocol, xml/xsd handling, SOA is sometimes required.

Hi Suresh,
Few of daily activities in which you as a Basis Consultant should involve are as below:
- Day to day system administrative issues raised by users e.g. User ID locked or new SAP ID creations etc.
- Daily watch on background batch jobs. If any job failed due to some reason, work on it to avoid such failure in future with the help of function consultant
- Watch on system performance
- Authorizations & Roles definitions & assignements depending upon requirement.
- System Backup depending upon business requirement
- Printer setup in SAP
- Watch on Print spool to avoid failures in SAP doccuments printing
- Watch on interfaces (IDoc/EDI etc), if any, with external system
Also talk to your earlier or senior Basis consultant to know more.
Hope it will help you.

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 ...
Regards.

Is it necessary to have a SAP(BASIS) certification

HI. This is Nashith
I done SAP(BASIS) with the help of brother in law who is a senior sap consultant
Is it necessary to have a SAP(BASIS) certification to start a career.

Hi Nashith,
please ubderstand the difference between a certification and real time exposure, when you will go to prepare or take any certifications, there only objective type of questiones are asked, it is meant for knowledge, but while working you will get many problems that might not be in certification subject lines.
So, certification only serve to boost your resume that you have knowledge regarding it, but if you will work sincerely on it you will get hands on experience, just telling you a short story.
There was a farmer, he has sended his son to study , after some years he came back and one day he saw that his father's well got dried and the level of water get reduced in the well, that time he remember the story of Crow , who puts concrete in a bucket when he was thirsty to elevate the level of water from bucket.
So he order each person to put stones and concrete in well, when everyone starts putting stones and concrete in the well, the well becomes full of concrete and the water level never get elevated.
This shows that rather than taking knowledge , we have to learn how to use it, so it needs hands on experience, and thats why experienced person are more considered thatn a certified proffesional.
So, according to me take hands on experience as far as practicable, it will be more considerable than being a certified professional, taking a certifications never ever ends your job hunt.
