Executive Overview

This one-day workshop helps executives and senior managers gain an understanding of the SAP Solution Suite. Key features, benefits and business impacts are highlighted. The workshop also introduces the role that executive teams play in the successful governance of a SAP projects. A two-day version of the executive workshop is also available. It incorporates a one-day "hands-on" SAP simulation with participants running a business through the full cash-to-cash cycle and gaining a practical understanding of enterprise integration.

Just like the ERPtips Journal, our training covers the entire SAP product line, from core SAP modules like Financials, Logistics, and HR/HCM, to NetWeaver-based components, to SAP's Business Suite applications, including CRM, SCM, and SRM. We train SAP implementation team members and super-users on any issues covered in the standard SAP course catalog, and we go beyond that to offer cutting edge configuration and reporting techniques that can fill the gap in your SAP know-how.

We help SAP clients and consultants solve business and technical problems with our library of undocumented features, timesaving solutions, and best practices. Request a free sample issue of ERPtips here.

Testimonials

"The ERPtips instructor geared this class to the students and their companies' Basis environments. We covered important topics that are hard to find practical information on, like kernel upgrades and hotpacks. I was later able to apply this knowledge to my company's own SAP system.

To get exposure to all the key material in this course, I might have had to take about three courses from SAP itself. The instructor went the extra mile to make sure that everyone's questions were answered."
