no, but there will be an implementation soon..
we are using SAP 4.6 c on HP-UX Servers with INFORMIX Database.. we are in the middle of migrating to (Martin will hate this
) Windows Servers with SQL Database.. if the migration succeeded, then our company will go for the ERP package.. maybe next year..
El_Nur what module are working with..??
it's much more than that.. it is used for lots of things in major companies.. for financing, controling, auditing, data management.. etc.. my company use it for Auditing, financing and data management.. it has lots of features.. but, companies tend to use only what they needed.. to reduce cost.. it is a business driven application.. and it is really a big major.. I have been working with SAP for two years now, and I need 3 more years to master it.. and only my concered module.. which is the "SAP Basis"..
btw, SAP is a german company, it stands for "System Application Product" I think, but around here we say it stands for "Suffer And Pain"..

Good luck. I do hear that it's a lot of work, and I'll find out first hand in a few months... Any particular pointers you'd give for people like me who are just getting introduced to its world? (from a programmer's point of view, and in general of course since I don't know exactly what I'll be working with yet)
a programmer point of view.. then, I think you'll be an SAP developer.. you'll be using a language called "ABAP" language.. not that tough by itself.. it's quite similar to JAVA or C++.. but, the area developers work in are quite chaotic.. they're asked to do simultanous changes in the objects, tables..etc.. god help you.. but, I think it is better to start as a develop.. it's give a lot of experience, and you'll be more valuable.. market-wise...
there is a bokk called "ABAP Objects An Introduction to Programming SAP Applications" by Horst Keller and Sascha Kruger..
it comes with two CD's that allow you to install a mini sap system for practice.. it's quite handy.. helped me a lot to understand the background concept of SAP systems..

I can't thank you enough Moe!
I wanted to take an online course this semester to get "acquainted" with SAP, but I have demanding classes. I need ed this kind of info to direct me in the right path because I've found quite a few number of books relating to SAP. If I went with one of those books, it would have just been a shot in the dark..
I'll put that name on the top of my "Books to buy" list.
Thanks.

lol.. it's not my call .. my courses in unix will go in vain now..
yes, I think it is.. but, not the same way as cisco, though.. there are so many levels of certifications in SAP.. the level of education is irrelevant.. I think (I'm not sure) anybody can apply for it.. as long as his company is a customer for SAP.. or it's a third-party client.. offcourse there some pre-requsites that vary from course to course..

When I get out of here I will be on the functional side of things (hopefuly being proficient on the technical side as well), consulting on the issues like identifying business processes that need to be changed alongside the ERP implementation. That being the case if I don't get into Human Capital Consulting with a top 5.
I've worked with PeopleSoft, which is SAP's main competitor on the ERP market, with a 39% market share as of late 2004. It is stronger in Human Resource Management and Self-Service Applications, while SAP is better on financial side and in supply chain management interfaces.
I would love to work with SAP though, rather than PS. PS is very popular in the US, while SAP- worldwide.
