For some of us the SAP Community started off way back in 2003/2004 as the SAP Developer Network (SDN). Later after the Business Objects Community and others merged together it became the SAP Community Network (SCN) - then in 2016 it simply became the SAP Community.
I've personally seen a lot of changes to the environment over all these years but one thing has always remained constant - this is a place where you can come to ask questions, meet others and exchange knowledge.
Over the years we've had things like "Blog it Forward" that let people introduce themselves to each other. We've also had over the years forum threads and things like that to say hello.
We've even created some tutorials to help new comers as well as those like myself take more advantage of the community. Have you taken these 4 tutorials?
Would you be willing to introduce yourself to your fellow community members here?
Me? Well I started my path into the SAP way back in 2002/2003 when my company told me to learn it so I could install it when I cam back from my project in Germany. I'm sure some noticed the odd bit about that statement. Needless to say I dove in and as luck would have it, SAP had just launched their beta of a Community (SDN) so coming from a web application background I felt at home to go figure things out.
@Former Member Was actually one of the first people who helped me to figure things out, my question asking left a lot to be desired as I had no clue about terminology or anything else in the SAP world. Then it was a post by @qmacro about RSS and RFC's that really got me more comfortable and then I just went crazy sharing my experiences and learnings via the blog posts.
I started a series on BSP and "mini WAS" -
I even presented at my first SAP TechEd event.
BoF, TechEd Munich ’04 – RSS, HTTP and BSP
So it's been a crazy start into the SAP world that resulted in me getting a job with SAP, learning that you don't just "install it" 😉 and now I have the pleasure of trying to help others day to day!

SAP Community is not active in answering questions. This what I see on comparing with stackoverflow.

Thank you @StephanieMarley . Today I am able to join a group and I completed all of the steps in the Tour the SAP Community 2024. Now I want to publish a blog under Enterprise Resource Planning Blogs by Members section. But 'Create a Blog' button is not clickable by my account. Is there anything else I can do for blogging?
Thanks and regards,
Merve

Welcome to SAP Community @MerveKaya!! Great to have you here. There is a wait time before newcomers can create a blog. If you have completed all steps in the tutorial, then you have done everything correctly.

Hello everyone,
I am from Germany and currently living in Saarbrücken (Saarland), which is the capital of one of the sixteen German states located in the west.
I've just started studying Business Informatics, aiming for a top-tier Bachelor's degree. I'm passionate about learning, sharing knowledge, and engaging with others. My focus is on gaining expertise in SAP and becoming a speaker on AI and IT. I believe in the power of technology and business to shape the future.
I’m sharing my learning journey here to inspire and connect with others.

I am a construction engineer by education, and my story with SAP began recently when I started working as a construction manager. I learned about SAP a year ago and in February 24 I passed the SAP MM and SAP SD exams. I live in Berlin but I was born in Poland. I'm trying to find a job in Berlin as a SAP Advisor and specialize in data migration. I also had an interview at BMW, but they said that they were looking for a person who knew how to migrate data from SAP to S/4HANA. I would like to specialize in data migration from SAP to S/4HANA, but in the form of a temporary contract. I would like to find a boot for the automatic migration of approximately 12,000-13,000 pieces of data within a short period of time. I am looking for an internship as a junior SAP advisor and I would like to cooperate with someone who specializes in data migration. I know that this time for migration is supposed to end in 2027. I wish everyone a nice day.

I work as a SAP Sales & Distribution Consultant. I started learning SAP back in 2006. I am active on the SDN / SCN Forum since 2007 and initially I was here to learn and lately I am here to share and keep my knowledge brushed up...

Outside of work, I love biking and I am soon going to join a fitness studio to maintain (& build) lean body mass before it is too late... :).
Thanks,
