RE:[sap-career] IDES (SAP Demo system) experience only

Posted by Typewriter on Jul 29 at 12:56 AM Hi Sumanth, Thank you for your input! How many years of SAP experience did you have prior to the medical leave? Also, do you have any tips about how you "regained" your pace of work, forgotten knowledge? & what you do now-a-days to "not forget" SAP content? VidhyaDhar, Thank you for the advise! Another combined question I face is from freshers is "Would there be a stage in our careers, when even if we donot regularly practice / revise; we shall not forget it (this easily)?" Would you please comment on it? I have marked your post as helpful.

Also, my tempo & pace of my work, has been drastically reduced. Its very important to always be in touch & picking up after a long gap, seems to be difficult.

One could try the following things to lessen the impact of this evil effect . 1. Revise your books / materials as often as possible. 2. Find yourself a job and always have access to SAP reading and SAP practice 3. Keep in touch with forums like the ittoolbox and follow all posts, no matter whether you understand all of it or not. 4. Find yourself a good mentor who can groom you 5. Try to gain access to an SAP server ( I suppose you can hire the services of a server , at a cost...) 6. Keep yourself abreast of the changes happening in the SAP world These things help you to keep fit within the realm of SAP Regards VidhyaDhar __.____._ Copyright © 2011 Toolbox.com and message author.

Some freshers to SAP have conveyed to me that they forget SAP content "very quickly" e.g. if they are not in touch with a chapter or topic for 5 days they have to go back to the books as they do not remember the transaction codes or exact configuration steps etc. Have you heard similar remarks from your students? Could you please advise the ways to practice both in IDES and other ways so that this issue could be tackled / solved?

A very good knowledge of all business processes is one important activity one should know about while venturing into SAP. The other most important activity would be the ability to efficiently translate the business requirement into SAP by using the easy access screen in SAP ( end user activity ) and configuring via the IMG screen all business requirements ( using standard SAP or using additional customization, at times). Good Exposure to both the activities is of considerable help. Many people ( am assuming here that they are well-versed with the business process ) who learn SAP from institutes usually use a study material and practice their exercises. This helps them get an exposure into how SAP handles a particular business scenario. IDES helps in learning the same. However, you could extend it further by tweaking a bit more and learning a little more. To cite an example, a student normally creates a company code but uses an SAP pre-delivered operating chart of accounts called INT. The student does not get a detailed opportunity to create a new G L master record from scratch since he posts transactions based on pre-delivered G L accounts ( may be he will create one or two G L Accounts that too by copying from an existing master record ). The student could stretch out a little further and create another company code and also create a chart of accounts right from scratch. This activity could help him learn more about the concept of G L Master records, related fields in it along with the functionality of each such field. This is a typical example of doing further exploration using IDES to learn something better. The student could also get to know about the concept of creating a chart of accounts into SAP from a legacy system using LSMW (Legacy system Migration Workbech) which feature is not being currently taught in many schools. IDES may not help here, in general. A real time hands on experience , usually with the help of a mentor, in a work related scenario. Therefore, there are a. things that can be learnt from IDES using standard exercises b. additional things that can be learnt from IDES using extra effort on the part of the student and c. things you learn in a real time scenario with mentor's help Regards VidhyaDhar __.____._ Copyright © 2011 Toolbox.com and message author.
