SAP HR functional Module -Need to specialze all modules or specific

Hi All,
Hope all are fine... I started learning SAP HR(functional).Basically I am a ABAP technical guy.I realized that each module like PA,OM,TM & PAYROLL are conver vast areas.I would like to know ,from career perspective,whether i need to specialize in particular area like OM alone thoroughly or need to concentrate on all modules.Which will be helpful in market?.Based on you friends reply,i need to move.Please advice and assist....
Thanks,
Raj.

Most I see are usually specialized into the following groups...
PA/OM/Benefits
Time (sometimes Time/Payroll but then a specific payroll...like US Payroll...or interfaces to 3rd parties like ADP)
Payroll
ESS/MSS/HRAS
Other (Recruiting, Learning, Perf. Mgmt, etc)

SAP Standared function module in BODS

Experts,
I know that we can not use SAP standared function module as a source in data services, we can use a function module in transformation but again we have to start from a file or table as a source and load into a target (Function Module can not be an end point of a dataflow - as it is used in the transformation and each transformation requires a source and a target).
Is this statement correct ? ?. Please let me know.
Here I have some Raw descriptive data in SAP and with some standared functional module which I need to call in BODS. Is it possible by some way to take it as source ..?
Thanks in Advance.

Where-Used List: Modifying SAP standard function module

Hi,
We have decided to modify SAP standard function module SD_SCHEDULING. But before that, we need to understand what impact this modification will have in the system. We will also estimate the risks with this modification.
Therefore, I have taken Where-Used List for this function module. We are aware that this list is not comprehensive.
Do you know any other way we could use to understand better what impacts this kind of modification may have? My colleagues say that this is the only way.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards,
Jarmo Tuominen

Hi Jarmo,
Try this
1). Goto Se16 and check the contents of table 'CROSS'.
2). Enter 'F' in the first selection screen field
3). In the NAME field enter the Function module SD_SCHEDULING and execute.
4). The list will give you where all the FM has been used.
Kindly note this is almost the same as doing a where used list. The where used list will only work correctly if the 'Update Navigation Index' works correctly in your system. So just to ensure the result of your where used list you can follow the above steps. This does not require the Update Navigation Index.
Hope this helps
Cheers

Functional specification examples related to enhancement in sap sd

Hi All,
Can you please provide me the functional spec related to any scenario in SAP SD.
Thanks

Dear Friend...
As a functional consultant , we may often come across certain situations from clients to modify / create or design a new requirement or a report or a new funcitionality with your existing System in place...
Say for eg : you may have a requirement from your client to include a new report in your system which enable the user to see the sales detail of a particular customer who avail certain discounts in a particular period of time.. then you may have to create a report with inputs like
1) Customer
2) Discount Conditon type
3) Date
where as the output will be having all the desired details like the
1) Sales orders for that customer
2) Its value
3) The customer address etc etc
(This example is just to give you a scenario)
Hence .. YOu have to develop a report which is not already available in Standard SAP. You have to contact your abaper to explain this requirement and to design this report,who will be desinging the report.
So FUNCTIONAL REQUIREMENT SPECIFICATION is a document which contains all the requirement details, input details, the table and their field names, Output details ,the table and their field names, the constraints which needs to be checked while executing the report, input constraints, output constraints, Error handling methods and also the process flow...
The Functional consultants will prepare the funciton requirement specification (Also called as FRS) and submit to the ABAPer .ABAPer will design the report / requirement or new funcitionality on the basis of the document.
Hope this is fruitful...
Also go through this links...

Dear,
Anytime, anywhere there is nothing Hard to achieve. World population increasing day by day.. but still arriving new born as new citizens in universe. So, the world will never end or never difficult to reach. Only thing is the direction and efforts you put. Just go ahead with right direction AND IMPORTANTLY CATCH THE WEAK POINTS OF MARKET OR CLIENT. If you can present them with a WISE solutions how to overcome their WEAK points and which makes them STRONGER... you will be a HERO. Either ERP or someother ...
I am not saying your friends are wrong, definetely competiton is there.. he only the winner who courage and achive his goal. Go ahead and be confident. Just remember.. at the begining everyone of us are a fresher at somepoint at sometime.

Functional Specification Documents for SAP Sales and Distribution

Dear Gurus,
I am having the problems of Invoice Output..... the default out put generated by the SAP is completely different from the hard copy of the Invoice of the Client. ppl say that I have 2 take the help of ABAPers to define the smart forms for the invoices of different company codes.... i had conversation with the ABAPers.... butthey are asking the format, wht ever the change we are looking for..... I am not be able to get the exact format.... how 2 provide this to ABAPers in FS format.
can any one pls send me ( or provide me the link to download the same from the SDN website) these Functional Specification Documents for Sales and distribution.
Wishes,
Abhishek

Hi there,
1st try to understand what is a functional specification doc before asking for it.
Functional specs is a doc in which you include what is the business requirement. If it requires a change to change to existing configs / code, then you will give the progs & the location where you will need to change. If the requirement is a totally new one, then yuo will explain the requirement in detail & possibly give the progs / code if there are any.
In your case, your client has a specific invoice format which is different from which SAP gives, in such cases, you will need to define a new Invoice output for eg ZINV. Define it as a print output. You will need to define a new print prog for the new output in which you will call smart forms to define the layout & fields.
Ask your business user to send the invoice copy which he has. Scan it & include it in the functional specs which you prepare. Mention all the fields which you want in the layout. Ask the ABAPer to code the invoice format in the same way. ABAPer is free to define any convinent name as per the guidelines (which he will be aware). You will need to assign that in the form routines of the output.
As a functional consultant you will need to give the field mappings (from where you get the data) for all the fields which you wish to print in the output. All that should be included in the func specs.
So there is no standard func specs that you can follow. Each func specs varies on the requirement. So dont ask these kind of questions in SDN forum. If you dont know how to define func specs, ask how to define. Dont ask people to send the sample func specs. Thats against the rules of conduct.

What is the significance of Functional Specification.

Please do mail me at [email protected]

Dear FARHAN FAROOQ,
The Functional Specification describes the features of the desired functinality.
It describes the product's features as seen by the stake holders,and contains the technical information and the data needed for the design and developement.
The Functional Specification defines what the functionality will be of a particulat area that is to be precise a transaction in SAP terminology.
The Functional Specification document to create a detailed design document that explains in detail how the software will be designed and developed.
The functional specification translates the Software Requirements template into a technical description which
a) Ensures that the product feature requirements are correctly understood before moving into the next step, that is detchnical developement process.
b) Clearly and unambiguously provides all the information necessary for the technical consultants to develop the objects.
A functional specification (or sometimes functional specifications) is a formal document used to describe in detail for software developers a product's intended capabilities, appearance, and interactions with users. The functional specification is a kind of guideline and continuing reference point as the developers write the programming code. (At least one major product development group used a "Write the manual first" approach. Before the product existed, they wrote the user's guide for a word processing system, then declared that the user's guide was the functional specification. The developers were challenged to create a product that matched what the user's guide described.) Typically, the functional specification for an application program with a series of interactive windows and dialogs with a user would show the visual appearance of the user interface and describe each of the possible user input actions and the program response actions. A functional specification may also contain formal descriptions of user tasks, dependencies on other products, and usability criteria. Many companies have a guide for developers that describes what topics any product's functional specification should contain.
For a sense of where the functional specification fits into the development process, here are a typical series of steps in developing a software product:
Requirements. This is a formal statement of what the product planners informed by their knowledge of the marketplace and specific input from existing or potential customers believe is needed for a new product or a new version of an existing product. Requirements are usually expressed in terms of narrative statements and in a relatively general way.
Objectives. Objectives are written by product designers in response to the Requirements. They describe in a more specific way what the product will look like. Objectives may describe architectures, protocols, and standards to which the product will conform. Measurable objectives are those that set some criteria by which the end product can be judged. Measurability can be in terms of some index of customer satisfaction or in terms of capabilities and task times. Objectives must recognize time and resource constraints. The development schedule is often part or a corollary of the Objectives.
Functional specification. The functional specification (usually functional spec or just spec for short) is the formal response to the objectives. It describes all external user and programming interfaces that the product must support.
Design change requests. Throughout the development process, as the need for change to the functional specification is recognized, a formal change is described in a design change request.
Logic specification. The structure of the programming (for example, major groups of code modules that support a similar function), individual code modules and their relationships, and the data parameters that they pass to each other may be described in a formal document called a logic specification. The logic specification describes internal interfaces and is for use only by the developers, testers, and, later, to some extent, the programmers that service the product and provide code fixes to the field.
User documentation. In general, all of the preceding documents (except the logic specification) are used as source material for the technical manuals and online information (such as help pages) that are prepared for the product's users.
Test plan. Most development groups have a formal test plan that describes test cases that will exercise the programming that is written. Testing is done at the module (or unit) level, at the component level, and at the system level in context with other products. This can be thought of as alpha testing. The plan may also allow for beta test. Some companies provide an early version of the product to a selected group of customers for testing in a "real world" situation.
The final product. Ideally, the final product is a complete implementation of the functional specification and design change requests, some of which may result from formal testing and beta testing.
The cycle is then repeated for the next version of the product, beginning with a new Requirements statement, which ideally uses feedback from customers about the current product to determine what customers need or want next.
Hope this helps you.
Do award points if you found them useful.

Rakesh

What is the functional specification

can anbody explain in details and give me one good example for functional specification?
thanks

Functional Specification:
To speak at macro level that is at project manager or at senior levels. The Functional Spec (Specification) which is a comprehensive document is created after the (SRS) Software Requirements Document. It provides more details on selected items originally described in the Software Requirements Template. Elsewhere organizations combine these two documents into a single document.
The Functional Specification describes the features of the desired functionality. It describes the product's features as seen by the stake holders, and contains the technical information and the data needed for the design and development.
The Functional Specification defines what the functionality will be of a particular area that is to be precise a transaction in SAP terminology.
The Functional Specification document to create a detailed design document that explains in detail how the software will be designed and developed.
The functional specification translates the Software Requirements template into a technical description which
a) Ensures that the product feature requirements are correctly understood before moving into the next step that is technical development process.
b) Clearly and unambiguously provides all the information necessary for the technical consultants to develop the objects.
At the consultant level the functional specs are prepared by functional consultants on any functionality for the purpose of getting the same functionality designed by the technical people as most of the times the functionalities according to the requirements of the clients are not available on ready made basis.
Let me throw some light on documentation which is prepared before and in a project:
1) Templates
2) Heat Analysis -
3) Fit Gap or Gap Analysis
4) Business Process Design
5) Business Process Model
6) Business Change & Impact
7) Configuration Design, which is just 5 % of Total SAP- have different names -
8) Future Impact & Change Assessment
9) Functional Design (Module Wise)
10) Risk Assessment
11) Process Metrics and Many More-- Which has impact on Business and its work flow
