The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Dear All

My name is Kalpana and I did my Masters in mathematics from India. I have 3 years teaching experience and a beginner level programming knowledge in C. I currently live in Belgium very close to brussels and was thinking of reviving my career after a gap of 2 years. I want all your suggestions and advice on which career path wrt SAP I should take from here. Can you please guide me as to which training courses are good for me? I looked at the training schedule for the Brussels center and I was confused. I really don't know which module I should take...seeing my background can anyone suggest as to which module would suit me? I am a quick learner and wouldn't mind learning something new altogether.

NOTE: I stay very close to Brussels and hence have access to the official SAP training center.

Thank you in advance and awaiting your reply.

Kalpana.

Hi Kalpana.  

There are many types of careers in SAP.  Research the ones you are interested in to see what the work is like.  If you can't decide, just choose one to get started in SAP and figure out what you really want to do.

If you want to do coding, you could learn the ABAP language or programming in Java.  If you want to monitor, troubleshoot, and mange the SAP system, you could learn System Administration.  You could become a technical or business consultant specializing in one of the SAP products (e.g. Customer Relationship Management, Knowledge Management and Collaboration, Supply Chain Management, etc.).  You could work with companies to understand their business processes, business goals, and requirements and design an SAP solution that will meet those needs.  You could specialize in an SAP solution for a particular industry (e.g.  Banking, Healthcare, Insurance, Automotive, Retail, Utilities, etc.)  You could even help companies integrate Microsoft products with SAP with the product called Duet.  You could learn to design or manage SAP intranets and extranets- the product called Enterprise Portal.

Dear Kalpana,

SAP is one of the hottest field nowdays in EU.
Being in SAP for 5yrs and looking over your profile i would suggest you to go for ABAP(incase you are intersted in programming).

If porgramming is not the field you wanna persue your carrer go for SAP BI i.e. SAP Business Intelligence.

Incase you need more help please do not hesitate to contact me.

Cheers
Arpit
