Want to move to SAP BW. Suggestion required

Presently I am working in India in the Data Warehousing area as Business Analyst. I have considerable functional experience and very good exposure to Supply Chain. Apart from that I have some exposure to BAAN ERP package. I would like to move to SAP BW. I have access to SAP BW and want to move to SAP BW. Can any want suggest what kind of role I can fit into?

Hi,
I think in most of BW Projects only 1 or 2 developers will be alloted to it. So most of the time you have to handle all things.
When comparing BW project with other DW projects, It is very pretty and easy job. If you have functional knowledge in the learning phase of BW ,It is very good.
So try to learn all things like Extraction,Modelling,Reporting,some sort of Sytem maintanance. And I think Work in Each part is dependent on other parts. i.e Modeling and Reporting are mutually dependent to each other.
With rgds,
Anil

bb,
Could you tell me if you have access to a BW system for development or as an end user.
Also I suggest you have a look at BW Projects happening in your company. That would give you an idea.
Also one more thing to do would be to go thru Fu and Fu first ( BW Setp by Step ). SDN please forgive me for recommending this book, it is on an older version but it is the only one in this category. ( Someone has to write a better book ...)
Then get yourself familiar with how DW and BW work , one area where you could fit in would be in Data Modelling and depending on your expertise with Data Modeling you could sell your skills as a BW Data Modeler.
But , the caveat is that getting in head forst as a data modeler is tough , most probably you might have to:
1. Get into a support project and work your way upwards or..
2. Get certified and then go into hardcore BW.

P.S I am also a Business Analyst of the DW Practice at my company and now full time into BW.

Want to move to SAP after 6+ years of experience in a completely different field?

Hi and Good Day to all lovely people on SCN.
I have been following this site for quite a few months now, reason: I am hooked to the wonderful world of SAP.
I still haven't personally experienced it, and currently in dire need of suggestions from your expertise.
After completing my MBA in Finance & Marketing, I started working for a Multi-National Bank in its Back Office Operations.
Been 6+ years and now am planning to also explore and enhance my knowledge in IT field which would be relevant to my
current experience and help amplify the chances of improving my career.
Am confused, and unable to determine which modules should I start with to get the basics of SAP.
Hence request you all show me how to take my first steps and gradually move faster by strengthening my roots.
Request you all to show me a road map, which would help me overcome any hurdles on the way to my destination of
being certified in at least one module.
I support Foreign Exchange operations and have fair (but not in depth) technical knowledge of how two systems are linked together to get the
job done automatically. Since, basically am from Finance, I have good knowledge on different financial products. Hope this would help you to
determine which module in SAP would be well suited for me.
I request every one of you to, please help me out and guide me so that I can make most of it.
Anxiously looking forward to receive responses.
Thank you & Regards

Hi Bilal
Honest question here: Why SAP? You appear to have zero exposure or experience, including not knowing what "SAP AG" is yet you are keen to completely change your career? How did you hear about SAP? Sorry, I do not mean to be unkind.
So far you have described your background and asked what module. You've received some recommendation on what module based on a very high level summary you have provided - back-end operations can mean a multitude of work activities.
I have also tried to provide you with an alternative approach to entering SAP. In my recommendation it is not about being hired because you do have or not have SAP skill set. It is about getting a job because you have industry experience and you just happen to now work for a company that uses SAP. Once you start working for the company you then start using SAP as an end user. You get more exposure to the system from that point of view. You may even discover that SAP does your head in (it happens to all of us at some point) and you are no longer interested.
I am not a functional person nor industry qualified so I can't say which module is right for you. But the reality is no-one in SCN is qualified to tell you what pursue. Particularly, when you seem to want to change industry as well - sounds like you are planning to go back to square one whether you intend to or not. If you were to change industry, how would you achieve that? Your approach in changing industry would probably include the same steps as changing product knowledge to SAP: research, hard work, networking, job application, etc and a bit of luck and opportunity presenting itself at the right time for you to capitalise on.
How intensely you should work will also come down your natural abilities and motivation/desire to succeed in my career path.
For education, search SCN for Learning Hub. You can obtain free access to some course material which would include introduction for you to have a look and see what it's all about and what takes your interest.
But please keep in mind (and search other posts here).. a lot of freshers seek training and certification with expectation it will lead to a well-paid job. They then come here and ask why no one hires freshers or why did they spend all this money on certification when experience is sought. You have experience, just a different flavour.

Dynamics NAV/AX Technical Advisory wants to move into SAP

Hi All,
I have hit 10 years of industry experience in Dynamics NAV support, deployment and implementation and some of Dynamics AX. I am currently a Senior Technical Advisory - designing , deploying and supporting our partner channel across EMEA.
How does someone technical and in deployment business starts getting into SAP technical side?
I would really appreciate some links that can guide me step by step. I cannot afford to pay for £1000 per course but do not mind spending more than that when I have cleared basics on my own. Obviously my current company would not pay me for competitor training
I am based in Reading, UK.
Thank you very much well in advance.
Best Regards,
Zeeshan

Hi,
It is not so easy to learn any ERP when you have not experience. But, if you are technical guy, I suppose to start with some development training.
Now, some advices:
AX is to hard for learning if you have not any ERP knowledge.
If you are from Europe, try with NAV. If you are from US, try with GP (or NAV).
CRM is not ERP. But, if you want it, you can also try with Dynamics CRM.
I am sure that some course will not help you so much to get a ERP job. Except courses, you have to learn and train it more and more. Some company will employee you only if you have some knowledge, not course (or exam).
You have to know some functional modules, because you can not be only technical guy in ERP software, because ERP is not IT; ERP is software for business processes.
If you need advice where to go on some good course, you must tell me where you living.

Before taking training I would suggest you, go through the SAP library of BI and get an understanding of BI. When you have an rough idea, then go for training and it will be really useful. You will be able to ask lot of questions as you know already little bit otherwise you won't get time to go through the materials during training as it's so fast. Check the links:

A clean install on my MacBook Pro has left my icons stuck on the right side of the desktop. I want to move them but there is no 'None' option which I think would free them to move where I wish. Suggestions?

A clean install on my MacBook Pro has left me with my icons stuck in the grid on the right side of my desktop. I had the ability to move them and have them stay put in various sectors of the desktop, which I found very useful. The clean install upgraded the OS to 10.6.8 from 10.5.8. I want to move them again but there I see no 'None' option which I think would free them to move where I wish. Has the upgrade deleted that option? Suggestions? I am new to this community and if not new to Mac, I often feel that way. This is one of those times.

I have the same problem on the latest iTunes software and Windows 7. My window is maximzed and I do not see any tab for photos. Seems related to a recent update (IOS7?) as this was there - at least before the very big change to the interface.

I have 3 +years of experience in SAP ABAP and BRFplus , want to move to australia from India.

Hello Experts,
I have around 3.5 years of experience in SAP -ABAP and SAP-BRFplus . I am based out of india and want to move to Australia.I am trained in ABAP OOPs And Webdynpro. Have worked for around 3 years in Infosys Limited and currently working as Senior Business consultant in SAP ABAP in Ntt Data North America.
I am activly looking for moving to Australia.
So kindly let me know how to go for that.
Regards,
Khushbu

Hi Khushbu
If you want to work in Australia you will need to research the different VISA laws etc. Trying to come "onsite" is a challenge. SAP job demand goes through cycles and sometimes it is difficult to find a position. You might want to look at the large consultancies and see if there is an opportunity for onsite work as part of the project (more than likely make sponsorship easier).
The difficult challenge - most times development work is sent offshore (not all places of course). The work kept in Australia is either they cannot outsource it (federal government and so you need to be an Australian citizen) or it will be more senior staff (10+ years experience). It doesn't mean the work isn't available but you might be competing with other established professionals.

Posting a Goods Movement in SAP Retail Store

In SAP Retail Store, under Inventory Management>Goods Movement>Other Movement, when entering articles and quantities, if you want to use multiple Bus. trans. or Reason for Movmt. values, you have to post them separately. This requires you to post, exit out and then go back in and post again, etc.
Is there a way to post multiple Bus. trans. or Reason for Movmt. values on the same screen?

Hi,

If you want to move stock then use t code HU02 and create HU in non HU manged location mentioning destination location as HU managed .

Hi All
I have a script in german and japan language.
I am changing script in japan language .
whlle transporting the script to Quality with TR no its transporting both language script.
but i want to move only japan language script which changed.

Hello,
It is not possible to transport SAP script in only one language if it exists in multiple languages as the transport request is same for all the languages. If you have not made any changes in the other language, there will be no change in the target client for that language script.
Hope this helps.

HT4527 I want to move all my iTunes from old PC to new PC but Home Sharing on both and it works. At Step 11, I clicked Home Sharing Import button doesn't work.

Help! I want to move all my iTunes music, podcasts, etc. from an old PC to a new PC. I set up Home Sharing on both and it works. I followed the steps in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527 to the letter. At Step 11, I clicked on Home Sharing on my new PC, then Edit > Select All so I could then import everything to the new computer. No matter what I try, the Import button doesn't work. There are two buttons on the lower right hand side of the iTunes screen - one for Settings and one for Import. The Settings button is clickable but the Import button isn't even live. In other words, I can see it but not click on it. I have double-checked my firewall and it is not the problem. How can I get the Import button to work?

These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
Method 1
Backup the library with this User Tip.
Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
Method 2
Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
Note if you have failed to move contacts and calendar items across you should create one dummy entry of each in your new profile and iTunes should merge the existing data from the device.
If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library or a backup then then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

If you have an iOS device that syncs with contact & calendar data on your computer you should migrate this information too. If that isn't possible create a dummy entry of each type in your new profile and iTunes should offer to merge the existing data from the device into the computer, otherwise the danger is that it will wipe the information from the device.

From my PC how can I see what is stored in my cloud? Reason is I want to move an audio books from my Ipad to Iphone. I am new to the Apple products.

I am new to apple products. Have a Window 7 PC, I phone 4s and Ipad . I want to move an audio book purcahsed on the Ipad to my I phone so I signed up for the cloud because it said what I described above would be possible. How do I do it? Also, how can I see exactly what is in "my Cloud" and selectively downloard the bits and pieces of what is in m cloud to a particular device. Thanks in advance to anyone and everyone.

Thanks pvonk, I will try downloanding the book from the Iphone right now.......
Just tried to download and it wants me to buy it again? Is there some way around this? I guess I thought that was the whole point of the cloud, buy it once and access from any of your devices right?
Also, I have logged into the icloud.com as suggested and will plink around there for a bit and try to understand. It is just all so dang different that what I am used to; Apple's way, that is.
Thanks again for the Icloud tip and if you know of a way to download without making a 2nd purchase I would sure love to hear it!
Geez. one other thing (I guess I am complaining) but I bought more space in the cloud, they took my cash fast enough but have not yet increase the size of my storage space yet? Is Apple sometimes slow to get internal stuff done?

Want to move TM backup from USB drive to network drive

[I tried searching and didn't see anything specific to my question.]
I have a Mac Mini backup up to an external USB hard drive and it has a history going back 7 months. It backs up to a folder Backups.backupdb. This folder resides w/ the rest of my folders on this USB HDD, it is not on it's own partition.
Now I want to 'move' this backup and history to a network drive (not a Time Capsule). I've seen methods to use Disk Utility to restore it to new drive or use Carbon Copy Cloner or Super Duper. (I'm familiar w/ all 3 programs btw.) However, all those methods require mounting a HDD (or partition). I can't seem to figure how to use that method to mount the backups.backupdb.
Any ideas?

Anything you found would have said you can't do that.
When TM does network backups, it puts them in a sparse bundle, not the "normal" folder named Backups.backupdb. You cannot continue network backups in the same "sequence." Even if TM works to your network drive (which is not officially supported), it will start a whole new set of backups in a sparse bundle.
And you can't copy the Backups.backupdb folder with the Leopard Finder anyway. See #18 in the Frequently Asked Questions *User Tip* at the top of this forum.
