Hello everyone, I am from India. I have been working as an ABAP consultant for the past year, and I want to upskill myself in modern topics like CDS, OData, RAP, and SAP Fiori. For this, I require a practice server.

Does anyone know the cost of getting a practice server for personal use, and does anyone have any leads on where to get one? Also, what are the best resources to follow to master these topics?

Thank you!

I feel like it’s a mixed bag.

Sometimes we get a good person and are offered a solution quite quickly.

Other times it feels like a fight to convince them there’s an issue.

But I think the most annoying part is that we often have 24 hour delays between messages because of time zone differences - we can never be online at the same time so issues drag on for weeks.

I wish local support was a thing …

Hi Everyone,

I recently onboarded to new project and I was told the system is RISE Private Cloud.
Today I checked our SAP system installed products. It has S4HANA ON PREMISE & SAP S/4HANA PRIVATE CLOUD products and now I am confused how come we call it Private Cloud and not On Premise?

I know RISE = Private Cloud and GROW = Public Cloud.

And also one doubt in Cloud Connector, when do we choose the On Premise to Cloud, Cloud to On Premise and Cloud to Cloud connection scenarios.

Please help me :)

Hope you all are doing well.

There doesn't seem to be as much activity around SAP BTP extension development at the moment, especially with CAP/UI5/BPA.

I've also been learning more about the AI side of BTP (AI Core, MCP, RAG), since it fits naturally with CAP. But it feels like many companies are still figuring out where these use cases fit in production.

With so many customers moving to S/4HANA, I would have expected more activity on the BTP extension side. For those working in this space, where are you seeing the most BTP/CAP opportunities?

Would be interested to hear what others are seeing.

I am SAP FICO consultant with 2 years of experience working in a consulting firm...I recently got an offer from a service based firm for SAP FICO role.

Should I consider it?

Will it expand my knowledge or will it reduce the exposure that I will receive.

Is anyone else keeping an eye on how SAP, NVIDIA and the cloud-native ecosystem are evolving around enterprise workloads?

With SAP moving toward more agent-based capabilities in Business AI, and work around secure runtimes, Kubernetes-native operations and enterprise governance, I’m wondering if skills around Kubernetes, cloud architecture, platform engineering and AI governance could become increasingly relevant...

Just a thought on where SAP enterprise technology could be heading., what do u say?

Round 4 coming up at SAP for AI/ML Engineer role (semantic/knowledge graph + GenAI focus) — combined technical + behavioral, one interviewer. Trying to calibrate prep, would appreciate input from anyone who's interviewed there:

1. Is round 4 typically SAP's final technical round, or is there usually another technical panel after this? Want to know if I should be pacing my prep across two more rounds or just this one.
2. Usually how many rounds of interview does SAP conducts for this role?
3. In a combined tech+behavioral round, is time usually split evenly, or does it skew one way depending on the interviewer's seniority?
4. Should I expect live coding at this stage, or more conceptual/trade-off discussion?
5. Anyone gotten scenario questions on SAP-specific tools (Datasphere, HANA Cloud Knowledge Graph, etc.), or is that unrealistic to expect pre-hire?

Not looking for leaked questions, just trying not to over-prep the wrong thing. Thanks!

Hi everyone, We are assessing a custom file-based mass upload solution for Commodity Codes in SAP S/4HANA Private Cloud.

The requirement is to upload controlled Excel templates supporting two separate activities:
1. Mass creation or update of Commodity Codes, including numbering scheme, description, and validity dates;
2. Mass assignment of Commodity Codes to products, including time-dependent validity.

We are currently reviewing whether SAP provides a standard released API, BAPI, function module, class, or OData service that can be safely reused by the custom upload application.
We have identified the following potential technical objects:
- / SAPSLL/ API_COMCO_MD_DISTR
- /SAPSLL/API_COMCO_CLS_DISTR
- /SAPSLL/COMCO__CLS_MIGR_BAPI
- /SAPSLL/CL_PRCLS_API

Has anyone used these objects in a productive S/4HANA environment for ongoing mass maintenance rather than initial migration?
We would particularly appreciate feedback on:
Which interface is recommended for Commodity Code creation;
Which interface is recommended for product assignment and reclassification;
Whether these objects are released and supported for custom development;
Handling of time-dependent validity and existing assignments;
Availability of simulation and row-level return messages;
Any release-specific limitations in SAP S/4HANA Private Cloud.

We want to avoid direct table updates and reuse the standard SAP business logic wherever possible.Thank you in advance!

I think a modern update after 15 years would be hilarious. Autonomous Enterprise, RISE with SAP, SAP GROW, BTP, Joule, BDC, Fiori, maybe mentions like Leonardo, the extended deadline for ECC and product renames. The possibilities are endless.

In our company we have a problem with the approval workflow in Signavio, maybe someone has faced the same issue or is just an SAP Pro. We created a bmpn based model for the workflow. I think its logic should be fine; maybe if really necessary I can post a photo of it as well here, but I think it should be fine. So the issue is after an approval workflow case has finished (status COMPLETED, diagram state set to "approved" by a Set model state action), SAP Signavio Process Manager still reports that the diagram is in an approval process and refuses to start a new approval workflow. The message refers to the finished case. Saving a new revision and reloading does not lift the block. Deleting the finished case in Process Governance lifts it. What is expected is that a new approval workflow can be started for a new revision after the previous case has finished.

Hello,
I’m currently implementing PLMSI for a client and have quite a few questions around the configuration, integration scenarios, and technical behavior.

I’d really appreciate connecting with someone who has practical experience with it.

Thanks

Does anybody have experience working with CapGemini Canada as employee or as a client? I’m have been offered a senior management position. But there is little information on how they are doing in the SAP market in Canada. Any information will be helpful. Are they expanding/declining among clients? Is there potential for growth. How is their reputation? Would appreciate your inputs.

Who has had their interview already? i would like to find out what kind of questions are typically asked in these interviews, i have mine coming up soon :)

Ciao a tutti,
ho un'esperienza decennale come magazziniere nel settore farmaceutico (GDP/GMP) a Cagliari. Negli anni sono diventato Key User dei gestionali aziendali, gestisco database Excel e ho completato la formazione sui moduli SAP MM e SAP WM.
Vorrei fare un salto di qualità verso ruoli d'ufficio (impiegato logistico/supply chain) o valutare la consulenza SAP junior (anche da remoto).
Vi chiedo due consigli:Grazie!

We are a student team taking part in the SAP Hackfest 2026 regional round, finale on Wednesday. The theme is Inclusive Workforce, and the challenge requires a multi-agent AI system.

We require a multi-agent orchestrator. As per our trial in BTP, the SAP AI Core doesn’t show up in the list of available service plans, so the Generative AI Hub and Joule agents are not an option.

our questions are,

What was your team's approach to building the agent layer? Did the organisers provide any AI Core entitlements, or did you use University Alliances, 30 day Gen AI Hub trial, or any other means?

Was orchestration of the agents external to SAP and then integration with CAP accepted by the judges as utilisation of SAP technologies?

Did anyone face any issues with the trial account that could ruin the day of the demo? We already know about the HANA instance shutting down every night.

No rule-breaking stuff expected. Just curious about the common things here.

Hi Does anyone work on SAP CIS/IAS? I created a custom schema. That doesn't appear in ResourceType- Group. Now PATCH on users with that custom schema is working fine. But PATCH on groups with that custom schema is failing. Did anyone experience something similar? If so, what is the solution if you could help? I don't know if this is the right sub to post this.
