Purchasing

ERPtips Purchasing class covers the building blocks of SAP Purchasing from master data all the way through configuration. Participants will be led through a deep dive of master data fields and definitions as well as configuration of master data fields and screens. The course will also cover sources of supply, vendor evaluation, release procedures, how to optimize purchasing, special procurement processes, purchasing processes, and pricing for purchasing. At the conclusion of the course, students will be armed with deep knowledge of the SAP Purchasing module and will take the knowledge back to their companies ready to implement new and improved solutions.

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."
