RE:[sap-career] SAP Module to Increase Value of a SD Consultant

Hi Pamela,

A "logical" and beneficial addition to your skillset without diluting your core SD knowledge would be

-SAP TM (Transportation Management): still concerns delivery and shipping related activities!
-SAP GATP - Used in conjunction with SD, does a lot of fancy things like scheduling and real time stock and source check for sales orders amongst other orders. In fact this is mostly used with sales orders.
-SAP EM- Event Management- Focusing on sales, delivery and shipping scenarios, you can boast of knowledge beyond document and status flow to real time ACTION using what are called event handlers.
-SAP RFID: Track and Trace in delivery and shipping.

Another possible branching could be acquiring some IS specific knowledge..

IS Oil and Gas- downstream
IS Retail - POS systems

Ultimately one can do so much in 10 years. But raise a valid point.

"The problem in India is companies expect you to be manager after having worked for 7 yrs in SAP. If I take the role of a manager, I will forget SAP since I will be involved into resource management etc"

I still dont understand why cant titles like Solution Architect and Solution principal exist in India. The project management thing is surely for losers and dumb asses. Outside India there are people working hands-on even at 45. There are developers in SAP AG over 45.

Subject: SAP Module to Increase Value of a SD Consultant

Hi All,

I am an SD consultant (not certified) with SAP experience of 7 yrs with roll out, support experience (no implementation) . My total experience is 15 yrs including 8 yrs of domain and SAP SD of 7 yrs.

I need to do some other SAP module to increase my value. Could someone guide which of the following three I take up. I would like to leave my current job and will like to take up SAP education full time. So a break of one month or so.

SAP CRM, if yes, which part of CRM i.e CRM marketing, services etc ?
SAP PS (I have some user experience only in SAP PS )
SAP BW functional. If yes, what are the course name for BW functional

I am in India and an Indian. The problem in India is companies expect you to be manager after having worked for 7 yrs in SAP. If I take the role of a manager, I will forget SAP since I will be involved into resource management etc. So I was thinking of ways to add more skills to my resume etc.

I do not have liabilities, i.e I am 37 and still single.

Regards,
Pamela
