How to install SAP

SAP IDES or the Internet Demonstration System, is my recommendation for this because it offers you master data created and customizing to start exploring. If you would install a fresh instance of SAP, it will be empty and you will need to create data and customizing for it to start using it.
I will walk you through the installation process step by step and in the end of this course you will have access to SAP with your own user to start learning.

Setting the Business Example

The key to learn SAP customizing is understanding the business challenges that companies have and how your customizing will make the companies run better.
By having this understanding, the customizing steps and requirements will make a lot more sense. You will be able to understand everything from a logical perspective and will make the learning process a lot more fun.

Process Introduction

Customizing in SAP can be sometimes very technical. On the other hand, the customer’s requirements are more business then technical oriented.

This section will show you the process fundamentals required to understand your customer’s challenge and the options to solve it in SAP. This represents the bridge between business and technical.

Customizing the complete process in SAP

After completing this section, you will know how to customize the complete process by yourself. Yes, by yourself because you will make your own customizing. After each lesson I will have tasks prepared for you to guide you trough the process. From my experience this is the best way to learn, by doing it yourself.

Customer Demonstration Preparation

In this section you will test the process you have created. Using your own master data and your own customizing will give you a rewording feeling of testing your own work.
The objective is to make sure that the process works smooth and you will be on top of it when it will be presented to your customer.

Customer Demonstration

You have come a long way till here and I would like to congratulate you. In this section I will show you how to present the process to your customer. You will put an emphasis the initial challenges and how they are solved with SAP.
This is how it works in the real life. To gain your customer’s trust you will build a demo based on his challenges and will present this to him.
