Tu tell the tuth I am totally lost in the starting page with many SAP phrases I have no clue what is behing and whre to navigate to find releveant content for PSM.

Wow, if an SAP employee is lost, what hope is there for the rest of us...

I'm with Lukas - you can find anything very quickly with Google, just need to know what you're searching for. Have not been to help.sap.com since 2005, just went there now out of curiosity. Looks like navigation is brought to you by the same think tank that did heck of a job on New SCN. Yikes.

Hi Randolf,

in my humble opinion, the navigation from the SAP main site is a catastrophe. I usually use google with domain-restricting parameters. Example: "my search term" site:sap.com. So I get my search results in google but only from scn and the help portal. Aside from that, Sap xSearch is pretty useful: https://websmp202.sap-ag.de/~form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01100035870000732957&_SCENARIO=011000358700000002...

best regards + good luck

Lukas

Let me make your life easier: here's a custom Google search for SCN and help.sap.com Google Custom Search - SAP Community Network Search

You'll notice the addition of relevant categories so that there's no fiddling around with operators needed.
