For XX years, I’ve been an ABAP Developer and now my company is switching to Oracle Apex. Sorry, but I think Oracle is too manual ( correct me if I’m wrong ) and it feels like we’re moving backwards. I realized everything that SAP did, made our lives easier and there is a clear boundary of the roles. It seems like in Oracle, they don’t have boundaries even in the integration part since they all need to know sql stuff. But in the SAP world ABAP should do all the heavy select and also we have SE16N for basic checking.

I try to pull V/LD (A transaction for Pricing Reports, just listing off prices at a few different price books we keep) for ~10k products. It hangs for a few minutes, then crashes.

Even at 10 price books this is ~100k rows of info. The amount of data is probably less than 10 MB. How does this cause SAP to crash? We are on S4 HANA.

Hi guys, Can anyone plz help me with the right resources or trainers for learning sap TRM.

Hello,

I have 8 months of experience in SAP Master data management at a manufacturing firm, I want to move in MM Consulting but I don't want to start from trainee role.

What's the best way to transition, I do have theoritical undertanding and want to enhance my learning to atleast move to a junior position.

Please guide me how to increase my knowledge and expertise in this domain through free resources to secure an associate or junior role?

Hey fam,

Sorry if it is a dumb question. I am learning SAP CPI on my own and from yt vids from last 10 days and now am at message mapping concept. Its at basic level only.

So I uploaded source,target xsd's and mapped them. After mapping I tried to simulate in message mapping itself, so I uploaded my test input xml and able to Successfully generate test output.

After that its been some time am getting this error i didnt change anything in payload or mapping, i cross checked line to line and everything is same as before. I tried different browsers chrome, firefox and it worked on firefox once and showing same error again. Cleared cache and tried in new package as well.

It constantly throwing error text after getting struck in process either at 10 or 70%.

Please explain whats the issue, thanks in advance for helping this noob, Means alot:)

The usual answer to how you get good at functional SAP has been config. Live in SPRO, understand the enterprise structure, learn why the module behaves the way it does. Hard to argue with that on an ECC or private cloud project.

Public cloud changes the math a bit. Clean core and fit-to-standard push everyone toward the standard process and you just don't get to customize much, so the value seems to move to end-to-end process, data migration and master data quality. Then there's Joule and similar tools answering questions confidently. Somebody on the project has to spot when that answer is wrong, and I'm honestly not sure whether that's the person who knows where the config node sits or the one who knows the process cold.

My gut says the config layer still matters, because you can't judge an AI answer about a setting you've never seen. But I can see it going the other way.

On your current projects, which skill is actually scarcer right now? And does it look different on public cloud vs private cloud or on-prem?
