To start career as Technical or functional side of SAP

I am a Computer Science Engineering graduate having 5 years of experience in Java,J2EE. I am going to study Management Information Systems in one of leading universities in UK having SAP alliance .
I want to start my career in SAP functional.
My question is which module of SAP fucntional side would be apt for me to start with considering my background in Information Systems ????
Do I have to start my career as SAP Technical person (like Portal side of SAP as its relevant to Java) and enter SAP functional or as a Techno functional personal knowing both Portal and any one functional side of SAP??
Thank You So Much in Advance for help

I would like start my career has Oracle financial functional consultant

Dear All,
I have 4+years of Investment Banking Operations experience worked on Treasurey operations, client services, Legals and Reporting side. Can any one suggest me can i shift my career to Oracle financials - Functional consultant. I do remember when I was working for reporting we used lot of Oracle applications.
Please let me know the stages to learn and should I search for Jr. role or can take up any senior role in Financial company as Oracle consultant.
Regards,
Prem

Well for sure the Documentation is really good. In addition to it, I would suggest that you should take up OCP DBA course from OU.That course will help you to get basic( and a little more than that ) knowledge of oracle database and its various parts.That will make up your base from where you can move ahead readind docs, reading astktom.oracle.com.
Wish you the best.

Personal - Looking into SAP Functional side

Hello Friends,
I have experience on SAP XI/PI over 4 years...moreover i would like to learn / work SAP functional.
I preferred SAP SCM would be the best opportunity to learn and my education background is MCA.
Could you please suggest whether this decision is good else suggest me which one is the best to opt from functional side.
Warm regards,
Yeswanth Raj.

Yeswant,
Good to know that you have good PI/XI experience but I am not sure if you know that this is nit the right forum to discuss personal goals and aspirations.
I think you can discuss this with your mentor in your organisation. He can provide you a better picture.
This forum is only for SAP PI/CI technical discussions/queries.

How to repair disc on second partition iMac 27? 10.6.8, but second is still 10.6.3. Can I use the original 10.6.3 install disc to start, and then go to the side needing repair?

Partitioned iMac 27, Sept. 2010. Verify disc on HD2 says "corrupted, needs repair," unspecified. "Use install disc to repair." HD2 is isolated from Internet since birth. HD 10.6.8, but HD2 is still 10.6.3. Can I use the original 10.6.3 install disc to start, and then go to the side needing repair, without a problem?
Part 2: After 4 years, suddenly when HD2 is revived from sleep, it makes an Internet connection, all settings are the same, Network shows Ethernet is unplugged, but the indicator from modem shows connection. Maybe connected to first part of my question, but maybe not.
Thank you.

Have you seen this type of problem before? I think it could be a serious issue for anyone in a similar position.
No; but then, I've not had occasion to use TDM. I've been using firerwire drives for over 10 years, both FW400 and FW800, with no issues except a bit of instability using a B&W G3 machine.
TDM should be safe. Using cautious, manual copying of files from the Target machine to the Host machine should not result in unexpected loss of files or damage to the Target drive's directories. It should behave exactly the same as if it were an external (to the Host) firewire drive.
• I don't suppose there is anything I can do to 'put back' lost items from a separate Time Machine drive which has an up to date backup on it.
There is probably a way to do that - seems to me that's one of the reasons for a Time Machine volume.
On the other hand, if the Time Machine volume is rigidly linked to the now-absent OS on the original drive, there may be no way to effectively access the files in the TM archive.
I know that using a cloned drive would work well in this instance.
I have no experience with Time Machine, so perhaps someone who has will chime in with suggestions.
With the machine in TDM with the other machine, have you tried running Disk Utility to see if you can effect repairs to the drive?

What are the different functions used in sap script?

Hi,
What are the different functions used in sap script? What are the parameters used in each Function?
Regards,
Mahesh

he print program is used to print forms. The program retieves the necesary data from datbase tables, defines the order of in which text elements are printed, chooses a form for printing and selects an output device and print options.
Function modules in a printprogram:
When you print a form you must used the staments OPEN_FORM and CLOSE_FORM. To combine forms into a single spool request use START_FORM and END_FORM.
To print textelements in a form use WRITE_FORM. The order in which the textelements are printed, is determined by the order of the WRITE_FORM statements. Note: for printing lines in the body, you can also use the WRITE_FORM_LINES function module.
To transfer control command to a form use CONTROL_FORM.
Structure of a print program
Read data
Tables: xxx.
SELECT *
FROM xxx.
Open form printing - Must be called before working with any of the other form function modules.
Must be ended with function module CLOSE FORM
call function 'OPEN_FORM'.....
To begin several indentical forms containing different data within a single spool request, begin each form using START_FORM, and end it using END_FORM
call funtion 'START_FORM'.....
Write text elements to a window of the form

Hi Henry,
There are two possible ways in which I can interpret your question.
1. You want to create a new Function Module in SE37. you will have to refer to the <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/en/d1/801e9a454211d189710000e8322d00/frameset.htm">Function Builder</a> tutorial for that.
2. You want to use an existing function module in your program. In the code of your program in SE38, click the button <i>Pattern</i>. On the pop-up, give the name of the function module that you wish to use in your program.
