Welcome to SAP.

For module choose, You can choose a module as per your interest.

Each module has a different purpose for business process.

I suggest some modules, you can go with them.

MM, FI, SD.

Its totally depend on your interest.

If you are interest about business procurement, then go for MM module.

If you are interested about financial matter, then you can go for FI module.

I think FI or SD modules would suit your profile best. You have been a Sales manger in a Finance company, therefore just check the list given by Dev and see the best suiting module.

Business information is equally required for choosing a right SAP module

FI or SD..

Both are equally good and related to each other, so pick any one..

Bangalore or Hyderabad..

Same here, both are good.. but people usually prefer Bangalore over Hyd, except Homesickness...

I'm afraid I cannot help you with the training centers but you should follow what others have suggested you. Look around as per your current location and job profile. DO some Google and you'll find plenty of option. You can then consult few and choose which is best for you.

Other than that, you can consult your existing SAP team (if available) for where to start thing, install IDES on your system, start exploring SCN for the FI scenario and basic documents.

Try to join any SAP authorized training institute, You can find those on Google,easily... At fresher level getting job in SAP Field is bit difficult but not impossible. Try to join any company, whether its big or small, get some experience and then try for big shots.

Former Member — Mon, 23 Dec 2013 11:24:11 GMT

Hi,

As already suggested, look for SAP authorized center's like Atos, Edrishyaa, Msource, Genovate.. Etc. but it all depends whether you would like to go for Online or Class room training, the difference is in the course fee.

Try to talk to the people around & select the center.

Thanks

ya its ok but i am asking you to please guide me as i am very new to this na there are several institutes to teach SAP but how to pick the right one as you are having experience in this i am asking you for help bro u suggest me any one of the institutes that which will provide me good training and placement opportunities

Re: regarding career opportuinity through sap

Dear, As per the SCN rule we should not write any institute name, here on SCN.

And one more think, if any institute is saying they will provide a job, once you completed your training from their institute, Ask them to give the same thing in written note, no institute will provide job to anyone, maximum they can arrange some interview invitation letter form companies.

Hi,tu

If you are looking for certification but you need to join SAP authorized center & as Chandra rightly suggested that certificate gives you an edge over non certified but it doesn't guarantee you a job. Think & Act.

Chandra I didn't go through the reply provided by you that we are not supposed to write the name of the center's, will keep in mind in further discussions.

Thanks

Hi, It seems to me your profile is suitable for SD module. You can get certified from any authorized institute, further if getting a job after certification is your main concern, then you can opt for institute like NIIT. They do try to get you as many interviews as possible. Then your performance in the interview will be the deciding factor.

Members,

Some have suggested SD and MM!

working as a branch sales manager

How can you advise some one who has worked as a branch sales manager, in financial services to go for SD or MM?

Re: regarding career opportuinity through sap

Former Member — Tue, 24 Dec 2013 05:08:08 GMT

SRINIVAS,

As a branch sales manager in financial service - what activities/ roles did you perform?

Re: regarding career opportuinity through sap

Former Member — Tue, 24 Dec 2013 05:51:47 GMT

Hi TW, According to me, sales of any product/services will be SD. MBA finance+selling financial products is mainly sales experience. Bcom & CA with work experience in accounting/ bookkeeping/ other finance areas will have required domain knowledge for FI module.
