Five key factors that SAP consultant must know.

SAP Solution Analyst at PepsiCo

I have been working as an SAP consultant since 2009. I have worked with many consultants of various modules. Some of them
were very sharp, intellectual and intelligent. They always performed their duties beyond expectations and delivered more
efficiently than they were supposed to deliver. On the other hand there were also some consultants who rely on other’s
knowledge and expertise. They never explored new things and they never thought out of the box. They always took their
assignments as duties and never performed with curiosity.
I couldn’t get chance to travel in other countries and see closely how do they do their work but since I am regular contributor of
SCN and I see many replies, questions and comments coming from across the world on daily basis. It gives me some idea that
cultural differences are not impacting that much the working approach towards SAP.

Following are five factors that I think every SAP consultant must know and must take care of these.

Personal interest in information technology

For me most important factor that an SAP consultant must have is his/her personal interest in information technology. I believe
that education comes after this. A guy with any ordinary degree can perform well if he has willingness to learn and explore new
things in IT. I have seen and known many guys who even can’t make a power point presentation but they are working as SAP
consultant and it becomes difficult for them to learn and explore SAP. This is not a usual job like any other in which you always
perform similar things on daily basis. When you are in SAP, you can have every day a new task or assignment that you even
don’t know about. In such condition your enthusiasm towards learning and R&D works.

Don’t follow the trend. Follow your beliefs and what you are good at.

I receive many messages from professionals or fresh graduates that they want to get into SAP market. Most of them want this
because they can see that SAP consultants are getting handsome salaries and other benefits. They think that anyone can be a
successful SAP consultant just like that.

The bottom line is that for getting into SAP one should have relevant knowledge, interest and educational back ground in some
cases (one should have read programming if he wants to be an ABAPER). If you have been working somewhere from last
couple of years and you want to get into SAP then you have to start from scratch and sacrifice your previous career. It’ll work
for you if you are good at IT.

Proper use of Google search engine

If you know how to use google search properly, trust me you are quick learner and you can perform more competently. Use
proper and short text when you are searching for a scenario.

Don’t give unnecessary text and use advance search option if you need to be more precise for your search. There is no other
website in Google but SCN which gives more results and discussions about your search. Use site:scn.sap.com after your text if
you want to stick to SCN. Sometimes we don’t get any result and this is for those issues/scenarios which are not very common.

If you are facing some error and you want to search that in Google then don’t write your own words in search bar. Just copy
paste the error text without any number or value which is specifically for your system. I always recommend and suggest
searching with error message number because it gives us accurate threads and results. I believe that if we all start using Google
search effectively, we’ll have more than fifty percent less questions in SCN on daily basis.

Never accept or reject the proposal/requirement straightaway

A smart consultant after listening user’s requirement never accepts or rejects it straightaway. He always takes time to analyze
and check all the consequences which system can have after implementing the solution. No matter you are so sure about
possibility of solution, you shouldn't ever say that this is not possible in system. You should always ask him for some
appropriate and justifiable time. If the requirement is of very basic level and you are so sure about its possibility, still you should
ask for some time provided that business requirement is not very critical and they are losing business for that. I have learnt from
my experience that if you deliver in very short time users make that a bench mark and they always expect the same results from
you afterwards. In this case when you really need time to overcome some issue user can say that you are bluffing and you can
do that quickly.

Develop professional network and be active on different forums

Last but not least suggestion that I have is that an SAP consultant must have good networking with other SAP consultants. It
doesn't mean that you should get on their nerves by pinging them all the time or sending them emails for no reason. What I am
saying is that you should know who are the best consultants in your area of expertise and you should have them in your hangout,
linkedin or other social accounts. You can contact them when you get stuck somewhere because in SAP no one is perfect no
matter how many years of experience we have. You must not be working in dark zone. Always try to be socialize with other
SAPians and especially with those who share your area of expertise.

I suggest and strongly recommend you to be active in SAP forums and SCN is one of the most visited and famous among all.
You meet new consultants here and you learn many new ideas which enhance your expertise. SCN is key to learn and to
develop your networking. If you are good at something let others know this and take benefit of your knowledge and expertise. It
won’t decrease your worth or knowledge in fact it builds your good reputation. You can at least spare 30 minutes from your
busy schedule to participate in some threads or commenting on some good blogs and documents. When you read some good
blog or document that you liked, you should always give your feedback. It is a way of showing your appreciation and it gives
publisher a confidence. If you don’t agree to what publisher has published or said in his blog or document you should give your
critic feedback with respectful manner.

SAP is a never ending learning process I wish you good luck in your career.

Roles & Responsibilities End User and Power User.

End user are the one who use the SAP system after system Go-Live or after implementations.
Consultants give training to end user how to use the SAP System, SAP Tcode to fetch some info or just to create new sales
orders, new customers etc. Now whatever problem a end user face while entering data in these sales order, delivery etc that will
reach as a ticket to the Support SAP Consultants.
End user uses the final product after that has been implemented by SAP Consultants.
Power User are Business Process Owner who know the Legacy processes and also the business process mapped in SAP. Thus
they have advanced knowledge in certain applications and may also have special permission or roles and can act as a contact
person for those application to the user.
Before implementing SAP, any Company / Business would form a group of team members like
 Stake Holders
 Steering Committee
 Core Team
Here Core Team would be having the powers of super users who would be dealing with day to-day issues of business activities /
end users. It may include configurations also. Needless to mention, for this, they would be trained by functional consultants
The word End User itself is self explanatory. Those who are in domain and updating the data in daily basis related to their
business. They would be having only limited access to their area. For example, Purchasing team would be having authorisation
to selective MM TCodes. Marketing team would be having access to limited SD TCodes.

4)Enhancements represent potential customer requirements that have not been developed in the standard. Instead, the standard
provides for further development of such exits at the customer site, using logic specific to the customer. Upward compatibility is
assured since SAP guarantees that the call of an enhancement from the standard software and the calling interface will remain
valid in future releases.
You can make enhancements to the standard using Text Enhancements and Customer Exits .
From Release 4.6A, you can implement enhancements for the system standard using a new technique called Business Add-Ins

6)BADI(Business Add-In) is the object oriented method of user exits...


Each BAdI has a definition and more than one implementation. The definition means the methods(in class concept) that are used
for performing various functions. The BAdI definition can be viewed in SE18 transaction(for standard ones) and user-defined
BAdIs can be created in the same transaction as well.
When you create a BAdI definition, an class interface will be automatically created and you can define your methods in the
interface. The implementation of the methods can be done in SE19 transaction

BAPI are RFC enabled function modules. The difference between RFC and BAPI are business objects. You create business
objects and those are then registered in your BOR (Business Object Repository) which can be accessed outside the SAP system
by using some other applications (Non-SAP) such as VB or JAVA. In this case u only specify the business object and its method
from external system. in BAPI there is no direct system call. While RFC are direct system call Some BAPIs provide basic
functions and can be used for most SAP business object types. These BAPIs should be implemented the same for all business
object types. Standardized BAPIs are easier to use and prevent users having to deal with a number of different BAPIs.
Whenever possible, a standardized BAPI must be used in preference to an individual BAPI.
