Training Suggestion: What module of SAP should start with

[Former Member]

I am a senior technical consultant currently working for an IT consulting/service/developer company. I am an M. Sc. in Computer Science and System Engineering with 15+ years of experience. Recent assignment with Performance Measurements and Testing project for HR and CRM applications of a public corporation encouraged me to get trained with SAP.

But I don't know from where to start ?

Here is a summary of my skill sets:

- Applications and Test tools development in JAVA and C (mostly Linux based)

- Interface development for load testing of Web Services using SOAP-UI (Linux based)

- Performance test development of web based and SAP applications using HP VuGen (Loadrunner)

- Embedded system development using C, VxWorks

- Expert in UNIX (Linux), MySQL

Recent interaction with SAP:

- Performance test development for an HR and CRM modules (entry through web portal)

I would prefer to stay within technical arena. Please suggest me which module of the SAP should I start with for a formal training.

Thanks.

Since you have technical background, you should go with BI. (SAP Business Intelligence)

There are already number of consultants in the area of Basis and ABAP.

BI is more lucrative also.

Hi Ravi:

Thanks for your advice.

As you said, "There are already number of consultants in the area of Basis and ABAP". Did you mean, the market is "crowded" ?

If you really suggest me "BI" is a good choice as a "technical" person, which module of the BI I could start with ?

Thanks in advance.
