Hi

As a SD functional, you are aware about questions related with VOFM is worth (copy rules, pricing, account determination, customer fields in output, pricing, batch determination, account determination and so on).

Questions related with the classic userexits (package VMOD), enhancements and BADI. Add to this list the BTE (for instance, related with tcodes as VK11 or VK12). Questions related with integration with other modules (as FI). Questions related with customer fields and how to enhance transactions with dynpros (dialog programming).

Remember it's more important to be aware about customizing tools than invent the wheel. And use these tools properly, avoid jeopardize data (classical notes about this issue: SAP Note 1315985 - FAQ: BAdI MB_DOCUMENT_BADI; SAP Note 156230 - Requirements: What is permitted, what is not?; SAP Note 178328 - Problems due to incorrect user exits in SD), not only with question related with performance, also with inconsistencies. Enhancements are a powerful tool, but it's also dangerous.

Improve your skills in business areas in the frontier between SD and other modules, as FI (credit management) and MM/PP (ATP). Not all is ABAP.

Other useful areas are interfaces (BAPI, IDOC and BDC) that coudl be triggered by enhancements to improve the productivity (I am thinking now in MM movements for instance).

You can see some notes as a sample

Note 611040 - Down payment invoice for Italy

Note 102852 - AR:SD: VAT perception and customer exemption

Note 877829 - Rounding for tax condition

Note 105621 - Authorization check for the condition screen

I hope this helps you

Regards

Eduardo

PD: I forgot. If you can do it, in an upgrade or support-packages, run SPDD and SPAU. It's quite pedagogical. It will teach you to avoid some practices.
