There are three areas in SAP with which one can build a
career.

[b]Functional Consultants
[/b]- SAP has many modules like MM- Materials Management, FI- Finance
& Inventory, SD - Sales & Distribution etc etc. Functional Guyz
basically know the business process and how they are implemented in SAP
software..Functional Guyz are very highly paid than anyone in SAP. These guyz
have very good onsite chances. Basically people who have worked in Companies
around 2 years on some particular domain like finance, production etc learn SAP
modules and hit the SAP JOB market with a Bang.

[b]Technical Consultants[/b]- These are the guyz
who learn ABAP-SAP's propriteary programming language. They will have to program
specific needs of the functional guyz in the SAP software.
These guyz have a
good grip of the ABAP syntax, the Database tables and ways of queering them with
SQL. These guyz will be required a lot in a project. Scope is also
nice.

[b]Basis
Consultants[/b]-Basis guyz are those who maintain SAP db. They will be
instrumental in providing User rights.. basically they will do the DBA
job.
