I have worked with many great SAP consultants since I started in SAP in 1996 (and many many many poor ones!!!) and wach one has knowledge that could and should be shared with the greater SAP community.

We have 2 manuscripts on the table that will be launched in January, 2006. Following that we have another due in January and 7 more in the pipeline. It's exciting times at SAPGenie, I tell you...
What does Genie Press do for you? Simply put, we'll help take your word manuscript out to the SAP community by publishing it. In a very professional and honest manner we'll take your book to Amazon and other marketing channels to give it the best chance of success and we'll split the royalties with you.

It's been a LONGGG time since my last entry. My appologies, it's been a busy time on the consulting front. I am busy running an XI implementation team as well as trying to guide the EDI and B2B teams towards a successful implementation of a mySAP project. CRM just isn't what it's made up to be.... but XI is.....
On the SAPGenie front we continue to grow in leaps and bounds. We have over 7700 forum users, average about 10 SAP jobs a day, over 900 SAP resumes on line, great sponsors, good services provided to our users and as always, great content.
If you are an SAP expert and wish to get involved and contribute just let me know. Great exposure for all who contribute to the site.
Thanks, have a great weekend.

We have some truly world class individuals contributing regularly at SAPGenie. Take our very own JavaGenie from South Africa. Alistair Rooney is his name and Java's his game... Then there's Chris Carter (nephew of former President Carter) lending his enormous expertise in the area of outsourcing. Jim Cameron of Expertig (XI, EAI, xAPPS), Volker from Germany doing a great job helping us keep OSS understandable (with his easy Service marketplace), Jo Spencer doing a sterling job in the forums as moderator, of course Jon Reed a household name by now in the SAP community giving us his exclusive "SAPGenie scoop", Joy Rama (Basis), Jude Lobo (BW), Asriel (RF Console), Yvette Smith (Security) and of course my partner in crime Martin.
We wouldn't be able to do all this without you guys so a big thanks to the team. I look forward to continue working with you guys and gals and I also look forward to new contributors coming on board. What about you folk over there in India..... come on and join the team....

Becoming an SAP consultant

2005-01-12T20:48:00.000-08:00

I get emails almost daily asking how a person can break in to the SAP market. Typically they want to know which courses to take.... My answer is always the same. Join a company that is implementing SAP and get on to the core implementation team, find an area that is good for you and work your butt off for 2 years learning that module inside out. Then take a consulting job with someone who can get you on another project. Work there and then on at least 2 others to bring your experience to at least 4 projects before considering going it alone..... Training, is a little overrated especially trying to break in to the industry. It's good once you're in to sharpen your skills, and even then I would recommend computer based trainging CRRoms so that you can consult and learn simultaneously. Good luck.....

We're always on the lookout for good quality content so if you have some stuff that you think could be useful to other consultants shoot it over to us for publishing.

Automated link posting

2005-01-12T20:39:00.000-08:00

We have also added the ability for you to automatically add your SAP relevant links. We do, however, validate that the links posted are SAP relevant. I believe this is a much better (searchable) service than our original manually updated link pages. (Post a link here) (View our Links)

We're working on the job and resume services

2005-01-12T19:49:00.000-08:00

Quite some time ago we started taking job and resume postings online. Ever since then we've been trying to improve the functionality provided with these services. Please share your thoughts and comments on these services with us so that we may try to incorporate them in the next version.
We will be adding the ability to modify your jobs and resumes online in the very near future. We know that's a requirement for sure. Are there any more out there? Are you happy with the searching and layout of the data?
