Hi,

    I am from a non IT background and i have decided to learn SAP SD module along with that i want to learn another module.One training center said sap abap will be suited .but i have no knowledge of programming or c language.so my question is can a person from non IT background learn SAP ABAP or SAP BASIS without any prior programming knowledge.

                                                                                also please suggest me which other sap module should i learn along with SAP SD.

Hello Suraj,

It is not at all difficult to learn any programming language without any IT background. Probably you might have very basics of C language in your graduation first year. This is enough.

And can you specify why you are so specific about SD and Basis? Specify your plan/interests so that one could suggest you which domain you could choose.

SD is a functional module, hence knowledge about the domain (sales and marketing) will help a lot in understanding the working.

I myself am not from any functional background but am working for FICO module. It just requires a zeal.

All the best.

I have 2 years of sales experience in a NGO after this i want to make a career in sap.My friends suggested me to do SAP SD(sale s and distribution) module.I went to some sap training centers they advised me to pursue an additional course of SAP MM,CRM or ABAP.

                                                                                                               So i want to know which additional course to do.

                                            Plus thanks for the reply that there is no need to learn any programming language to study SAP ABAP.

Hello Suraj,

You can go for SD as you are having a bit domain background. In addition, ABAP helps you very much to analyze the working of SAP. MM and CRM would be a plus to you SD domain.

You can make a great career with just starting with SD for now also. It is all upto you.
