Hi Everyone,

This is Prateek Sharma from India, i started my SAP journey as an ABAP Developer in 2014. From there on there is no looking back, i have fully enjoyed my journey started with developing simple Reports to SAP Script then moving to more complex development to touching all the possible RICEFW objects. 

There on moving to HANA side of things and exploring CDS, AMDP etc along with learning odata and linking them with FIORI application also learning business side of things mainly in SD and Logistics modules.

Now with the introduction of Cloud Application programming model which is now known as BTP services. Learned RAP from the start from awesome SAP teachers like Andre Fischer and Thomus Jung via many youtube videos and github tutorials. 

Looking to connect with likeminded people and would love to share the knowledge i have gained over the past 10 years.

Hi SAP Community,

I‘m Paul from Germany (Berlin) and just startet my SAP career as an SAP Solution Architect for PS/CO. Before that I’ve had 5 years of key user knowledge which showed me the great potential of SAP when utilizing it in a way that end users, customizer and developers find an overall great solution for everyone.

I am excited to meet new equally minded SAP enthusiasts, especially regarding PS/CO.

I would also love to have a Berlin community to get together and discuss about different SAP topics.

Best regards

Paul

[KatherineKenneally]

@dr_eyer 
Welcome to SAP Community Paul! It's great to have your experience here.
I'm also sure you will meet many like minded SAP enthusiasts here!
If you meet some also from Berlin - we recommend to start small with an informal SAP Community event, like a meetup. You can take a look at existing location groups, and also upcoming events.
At a future point, you might also be interested in learning how to become an event organizer in Berlin!

[aldapooh]

Hi @KatherineKenneally 

this is an artificial comment to enable my user to get authorization to post a blog.

Please share your opinion why someone decided that a such artificial limitation of a user authorization to post blogs is a good idea, especially since SAP Community still have a moderation.

Regards, -A

[Agarwal_Shubham]

Hello, everyone! I'm excited to join this group and connect with others who share similar professional interests in the SAP world. It's great to have the opportunity to engage with the community!

[KatherineKenneally]

Thanks for the feedback @aldapooh - I will share with my colleagues who created the tutorial. I think it's more about earning permissions so that we can have a quality platform for all. For example, we've had some new members join who try to publish a blog post immediately. The post from my colleague @jerryjanda might help explain things: Let the Gamification Begin!

[AmitaGupta]

Hi All,

I am from public cloud S/4 transportation management . I would like to know if there is a dedicated blog link for the same? This is purely to post our feature and how to partners and customers.

Thanks and regards,

Amita Gupta

[KatherineKenneally]

Hi @AmitaGupta - thanks for joining SAP Community. Depends on which piece you are interested in - for example, you can find the Technology blog posts in the drop-down for Products and Technology. There are posts by community members and posts by SAP employees.

Members can also subscribe to relevant SAP Managed Tags, for example: SAP Transportation Management or SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition.

Since you are new to SAP Community, the article from my colleague @sveabecker might also be useful for you - please feel free to subscribe to this article:

Hi everyone, I'm from Germany and I'm happy to join this group 🙂 

I'm working as a working student in the field of Communications at SAP while I'm also studying for my Master's in Sociology.

[SabinePruse]

Hi everyone, greetings from Latvia!

I'm a creative with an interest in tech – I'm a web admin, have done Google IT support certification and taken some university and self-paced courses about AI and machine learning. I love to learn but apart from a bunch of Youtube videos, I don't have an experience with SAP, so I'm still in process of deciding if jumping into exploration of SAP was a dumb or a brave idea. 🙂

I'm starting to explore the community platform and learning resources, but if you have any suggestions on what courses or learning paths to start with for an enthusiastic newbie – I'm all ears!

Sabine

[MayarHassan-]

Dears,
I’m starting my career as a SAP SuccessFactors Consultant and am particularly interested in the Onboarding module. I’m eager to gain certification and would appreciate your help in obtaining a voucher for the exam.

Your guidance and support would mean a lot as I work to build my expertise.

Thank you for your consideration. SAP SuccessFactors Onboarding 1.0  SAP Community

Other than This, Although My Background is on the Non-Technical Side, but still focus on acquiring the skills and knowledge of SAP Technology. both as a Functional and ABAP Consultant Since My background is in Business. but planning to harbor ABAP on BTP specifically in SAP Build And Generative AI Stuff Since I have quite enough knowledge about Developing as well as of AI Stuff since I've been certified in it. So. To Market this product in an effective manner. since I've been a Expert Digital Marketer as well for 2 years in the past. before stepping into the World of SAP Technology.
