Hi,
I appreciated greatly for the inputs. It's helpful. The training offered to me is sponsored by government agency, and I am glad for the opportunity to explore SAP.

I don't disregard the past experience I have, including few years in Oracle ERP area. As much as possible I want to leverage them for best opportunity in the market. Acquired SAP skill is my intention to give myself added advantage as both SAP and Oracle are 2 popular ERP. It's true if I start fresh as SAP consultant, likely big cut in compensation as pointed out by Jay.

SAP market is new to me, Roy input is helpful to know about this. Thanks Matthew help in clarification, as well as Madhu and all others.

Thank you :-)

Hi,

I have worked in IT for 20 yrs in various roles in end user environment of Fortune 500 IT company - system engineer, network engineer, IT operation, Business analyst, project manager, IT manager, project portfolio management,. In last few years, I worked on sales and distribution related project using Oracle ERP to replace the application I designed 12 years ago. My involvement in this recent Oracle ERP project for 3 years as BA (Business Analyst) in Billing, Receivable ,and PM/lead BA in data migration.

Ten years ago I worked on Oracle Financial application, 1 year in GL module to rollout Oracle application; another year as project manager & lead BA to deploy Ariba sourcing application with integration to Oracle PO, AP and Project Accounting modules.

Recently I left the company and was offered SAP training by a institute. I have to choose 1 out of few modules - FI (Accounting), CO (Management Accounting), MM (Material Management), SD (Sales and Distribution) and HR (Human Resources).

Though I incline to FI and SD module, I am open for suggestion. Which of these 5 modules are more promising?

Suggestion and input for my career path is appreciated.

Thanks in advance
Marc
