yrs".Is it so.Actually i completed MBA 2004 Sep'.So I'll be getting only 2
yrs.I think there is someother course coming know!from Oracle+people soft.I don't know which it is.IS that good? Which one I need to do?Can you assist me???!!!

Hi Kavitha,

You need not to be confused. Basically there are two types of jobs associated with SAP in any organisation. One is implementation part and the other one is support function. Implementation means you have to develop the program for the organisation whereas support means it is already implemented and u have to just work on it. Implementation is a vast job and basically companies look for experienced people. As already been told Siemens is the certified trainer for same but it is very expensive(approx. Rs 3 L). Now it depends upon u how much do u want to spend. Siemens train you first and then let you work on implementation-projects under their guidance so that u get implementation experience. Apart from that u can do a one year course fron C-DAC (Noida). Though it's not certified as the certification lies only with Siemens. its a govt. institute and the course fee is also approx Rs 60,000/- which make it a good bargain as it also gives u live-experiences. Many companies take people from this institute becoz the faculties are themselves top honchos of SAP companies. It's over all a good deal.

Apart from this there are many pvt institutes offering SAP course at a cost of Rs 25000/- to 30,000/- These institutes are good for working people as they are having flexi-timings & if u are having good domain experience then it helps u a lot. I am a HR professional with a exp. of 3.5 yrs and since I can't afford to leave my job I am doing the course from such an institute in the evening hours & on Sundays. For Siemens or C-DAC, U need to devote full time.

SAP is very much in demand. Be it implementation or support function. You can go for the same without hesitation. Wat ultimately matters is ur knowledge part. It will help u in future.



Oracle & Peoplesoft are also ERP solutions and are in demand but not as much as SAP.

Hope U got ur queries solved. U can ask me if u are having any more on my id [Login to view]

Hi Amit,

Hi Sarika,
As already told, the job of a functional consultant is to implement SAP in an organisation. I think u are talking about Support consultant whose job is to give support i.e; to work where SAP is already implemented. In SAP HR module there are several sub-modules. Recruitment is one of them. In recruitment again there are many branches viz, Workforce Requirement & Advertising, Applicant Administrartion, Applicant Structure, Applicant Selection, Applicant Master Data etc. If you get exposure to SAP HR then you can work on these different sub-modules based on ur domain experience. I have recently taken admission so I am just going through the basics. Once through, I wud be able to throw more light on the same. Hope it solves ur query. Feel free to ask nything as I feel knowledge increases by sharing.

Thanks Amit,
Thanks for giving us so much ofknowledge. This question was coming in my mind from many days but half knowledge i had on this that SAP is only to become consultant not for supprt now I knew that what it is.
Thank you so much.

Thanx Wricha & Vamsi for being humble towards me.
As far as your queries are concerned Vamsi, let me clarify that almost entire aspects of HRM are covered in SAP HR. You can definitely complete the course with ease. Nothing is impossible in this world if u have got the will power. U are having an advantage as well, as u have got theoratical knowledge of HRM.
Let me clarify one thing more. SAP & Peoplesoft are both ERP solutions provided by different slolution providers. Top five ERP solution providers are as follows:
1. SAP AG
2. Oracle Apps
3. J.D. Edwards
4. Peoplesoft
5. Baan
I will suggest u Vamsi to go for SAP rather than Peoplesoft as SAP is the most widely used ERP package. Also it has the most nos. of functional modules.
If u people have more queries, feel free to ask. If I will be able to answer them then will definitely revert on the same.
