Welcome to the beginner corner!

David_Chaviano · ‎2022 May 05

Hi All,

I’ll kick off the discussion and second post on the beginner corner! I’d first like to welcome everyone and let you know that the beginner corner is a great place to get connected with peers and SAP experts on all matters regarding your SAP learning journey.

We recommend you start learning with the Introducing End-to-End Business Processes for the Intelligent Enterprise learning journey to gain a baseline understanding of what we do and how. This will provide the context behind everything else that you will learn in the future.

Below is a short demo on how you can create an SAP Account and start interacting with us in the beginner corner:

If you have any other questions or comments, the beginner corner is here for you. No question is too simple or complex – we look forward to hearing from you.

Here are some other blogs you may be interested in:

Happy learning!

Good day am Hennie, I am new on the platform. How many units should one complete to qualify for certification and which units?

former_member10843 · ‎2022 Jun 23

Lovely to meet you David and fellow students,

My name is Ali Siddiqui and I am currently planning to learn all about SAP as I work my way through my Supply Chain Management certification from George Brown College's Continuing Education program here in Canada.

If anyone has any advice regarding any SAP programs/modules that are Supply Chain Management relevant I am all ears!

Once again glad to you all and hope everyone achieves their goals.

Cheers,

Hi @former_member10843 ,

Thanks for the question! I can offer the SAP Integrated Business Planning for Supply Chain learning journey which is available for free to students via the SAP Learning Hub, edition for SAP Next-Gen .

Check out my blog on how to get started with learning hub here.

I hope this helps!

Regards,

David

Hi @former_member10784, when clicking on a Learning journey, you will see different units that prepare you for your certification exam. The amount of units depends on the topic you are interested in, but I would recommend checking our all available content in the units, after doing that you are for sure prepared for the certification!

former_member10266 · ‎2022 Jun 27

Hi @former_member10843, I recommend checking out this website: https://www.sap.com/canada/products/supply-chain-management/products.html. You can find an overview about SAP solutions for Supply Chain Management there.

You can then find learning resources for these solutions at https://learning.sap.com/learning-journey, but since not all available learning content is yet linked here at SAP Learning, so you maybe also want to have a look at other websites, e.g. https://open.sap.com/courses.

All the best for you too!

Jan

former_member10843 · ‎2022 Jul 02

@David_Chaviano - Hi David! Thank you very much for the links and recommendations! I greatly appreciate all the assistance I can get. Have a lovely weekend! Cheers 🙂

@former_member10266 - Hi Jan! Oh these are wonderful recommendations. I've paired this with the information @David_Chaviano provided, so I think I have a good bit of reading to do. Have a lovely weekend as well! Cheers! 🙂

Thank you guys!

Cheers,

Hello David, I really am very excited to learn how to use SAP software and being in the final stage of my university career, as a mechanical engineer I would like to learn the SAP Plant Maintenance module, however, I have not been able to find it inside from the official SAP page the location of where I can find courses and/or the installation process of the same, I hope you can help me due to the great experience you have in the software, thanks in advance and greetings!

David_Chaviano · ‎2022 Jul 04

Hi @former_member10784 - If you find a learning journey that ends in a certification (they are marked accordingly) you need to complete all units of the journey. Good luck!

Hi @David_Chaviano ,

I am a recent graduate and want to learn Explore Integrated Business Processes in SAP S/4HANA(Student Exclusive) to certification . I started the learning but i cannot use practice test .

Do i need to pay for subscription to use the practice system ? or do i need to do some other course on installation before starting this ?

Thanks and Regards

LockhartTech · ‎2023 Jan 11

Hi @David_Chaviano & SAP

Thanks for the tip on where to start and thanks to SAP for opening up all this free learning.

I am making my way through the Introducing End-to-End BP course and it's like a mini MBA course.

former_member121249 · ‎2023 Jan 16

Hi everyone,

I wish we have a Discord Server, where we can get 1 to 1 guidance and talk verbally on call with SAP experts from all over the world and better understand about SAP. This will not only get more new audience from Discord Platform but also help existing SAP users easily access SAP community.

Hi,
I am an IT infrastructure veteran who became an cybersecurity professional (mainly solution selling and presales engineering). I have encounter with SAP in one of my professional journey who is also partner of SAP. What's in it for me? what is the best learning path for me being a cybersecurity professional?
What are best certification and learnings i could finish to complement my professional growth and contribute to my SAP partner organization by the achieved learning sets.
Please guide me.
Thanks, waiting for a great pragmatic & fruitful guidance or instruction to accomplish

former_member131268 · ‎2023 Apr 11

Hi, I am very new to SAP and I need to take a certificate for SAP Commerce Cloud Business User.

Currently I have started learning it in Learning Hub.

Just wondering - aside from each event or webinar provided from SAP itself, are there any activities in SAP learner side - like study session - like 'SAP online study session' or any communities of studying together?

David_Chaviano · ‎2023 Apr 18

@former_member131268 - Check the events board https://groups.community.sap.com/t5/sap-community/eb-p/community-events

Good luck on your exam!

David_Chaviano · ‎2023 Apr 18

@sap_makinur - Your best bet will be to understand exactly what solutions your employer is running and pursue certifications around that solution. Each solution should have something a security specialist should understand.

David_Chaviano · ‎2023 Apr 18

@former_member121249 - Thanks for the suggestion! The challenge is that the spectrum of SAP related questions that can arise is wide. The chances that someone with a specific question and the appropriate expert is online at the same time is slim.

We try to schedule discussion events on the community calendar: https://groups.community.sap.com/t5/sap-community/eb-p/community-events

David_Chaviano · ‎2023 Apr 18

@melroy - The learning journey is more complete by now - try the quiz function again!

David_Chaviano · ‎2023 Apr 18

@former_member46829 - You can search for free courses here: https://learning.sap.com/learning-journey

Introducing End-to-End Business Processes for the Intelligent Enterprise is a great place to get an overview of what SAP does.

StephanieMarley · ‎2023 May 11

@former_member140734 I would like to invite to join this discussion too. @David_Chaviano definitely has more advice as you start your SAP journey. Thanks!

former_member142123 · ‎2023 May 16

@David_Chaviano Hi David,

@StephanieMarley Hi Stephanie,

Thank you for your great help,

I am an Industrial Engineering Junior student,

what modules do you advice me to study for the time being?

David_Chaviano · ‎2023 May 16

Hi @former_member142123 ,

All newcomers should orient themselves with the big picture here.

Are you looking to certify?

steffaniferreir · ‎2023 May 24

Hi David, how are you?

I am a Inter from Brazil, nice to meet you.

I'm interested about an bootcamp happening on May 29th until 02nd Jun about S/4HANA Public Cloud Certification.

I can't subscribe in this event. Could you help me please?

Thanks a lot.

StephanieMarley · ‎2023 May 25

@Marssel700 by chance do you know the answer to @steffaniferreir question?

Keeping @David_Chaviano in the loop too.

Thanks all!

David_Chaviano · ‎2023 May 25

Hi @steffaniferreir - I'll reach out to you in the DMs with more info!

thanks @StephanieMarley

former_member144227 · ‎2023 May 29

Hi, does completing this learning journey give us a certification attempt only eligible for a Cloud S/4HANA consultant certification or does it provide a broad certification attempt which could be used for other SAP certification products such as SAP project management or Supply chain. Thanks.

David_Chaviano · ‎2023 May 29

Hi @former_member21585 , thanks for the question, technically you can complete any learning journey and receive an attempt that can be applied to any exam you want. This is assuming you are signed up for the digital skills initiative though.

Please bear with us as we issue certifications. It may take a couple weeks to get it!

mgupta49 · ‎2023 Jun 07

Hi ,

This side mala, i would love to learn sap just completed ""This Record of Achievement validates that the candidate has successfully completed the Learning Journey Outline the Finance Overview in SAP S/4HANA on Foundational Level."" anyone please guide me for certification so will choose correct module

for finance career after MBA........ ?

David_Chaviano · ‎2023 Jun 07

Hi @mgupta49 ,

Thanks for reaching out! Most of the learning journeys for your area of expertise are paid offerings.

If you want a free learning track, I can recommend Explore Integrated Business Processes in SAP S/4HANA.

It will span all lines of business of SAP S/4HANA, but will also give you a general sense of the financial operations as well.

I hope this helps. Good luck with your studies!

Regards,

David

@David_ChavianoHello David,

Good Day!

How can I get a free certification voucher as a part of my digital skills? I am from India. I saw a post which is talking about 10,000 women SAP certifications. How can I become part of that?

David_Chaviano · ‎2023 Jun 21

Hi @rajashrisur -Welcome!

I will send you a private message with details!

Hello,

My name is Thomas. I am looking to change careers into Logistics/Supply Chain. Some job listings ask for experience in SAP. I never used the software before - which online learning courses/certifications would be the best to start?

Thank you!

David_Chaviano · ‎2023 Jun 23

Hi @former_member148304 ,

Welcome aboard!

The best fitting certification path is a paid one: SAP Certified Application Associate - SAP S/4HANA Cloud, public edition - Supply Chain

If you are looking to stay free/low cost:

Discovering End-to-End Business Processes for the Intelligent Enterprise is a great learning journey to get an overview of how SAP works.

Explore Supply Chain Business Scenarios in SAP S/4HANA Cloud, public edition

Hope this helps!
