SAP Modules

SAP ERP operations modules have emerged that are designed focusing on various different processes including SAP ERP sales and service, sales and distribution, customer relationship, financial management, business intelligence and more.

SAP modules can be broadly classified into two categories: functional modules and technical modules. Functional modules deal with specific business processes, such as accounting, sales, and procurement, while technical modules are focused on the technical aspects of SAP implementation, such as programming and system administration. Candidates with a background in business or commerce are well-suited for functional modules, while those with a technical background in information technology are better suited for technical modules. Understanding the difference between these two types of modules can help candidates make an informed decision about which module aligns with their background and career goals.
