SAP Intercompany Drop Ship Optimization

Things have been quite busy for me as of late leaving me very little time for posting new content on this blog.  Lately, though, I had the opportunity to write a blog post about the SAP Intercompany Drop Ship process for my employer, itelligence, and I thought I would share that link with you here (itelligencegroup.com).   You are more than welcome to request access to the accompanying webinar recording (at the bottom of the linked page), but keep in mind the applicants may be screened beforehand.  Enjoy.

Consulting Tip: Think Before You Type

Here is a consulting tip:  I received an interesting email this week from an individual representing another vendor also supporting my client.  This email became a reminder of how valuable it is to keep your cool and, by all means, think before you type.  The names are changed to protect my client (and Donald’s unfortunate employer):

Honestly, your response is a joke. Im on PTO and Thank you for pointing out the obvious. I could ask you to run a simple query in SAP to determine a handful of products that are negative but I guess that would be asking too much.

Kathryn- im sorry you have to deal with this. If you could let me know a couple neg products that would be helpful. Thank you!

Is it Time For a Modern SAP Resume?

Like many, I try to keep my Resume as fresh as possible.  Even if you’re not actively job-hunting, updating your resume regularly will ensure that you’re capturing the more salient activities you’re performing and perhaps replacing those that are less important.  But in the age of the cloud where LinkedIn reigns supreme, is it time to re-think the classic interpretation of the professional Resume?  Is it time for a modern SAP resume?

Ask Me Anything: SAP Value Discounts vs Price Discounts

This question on SAP discounts comes courtesy of Val:

I’m configuring  a series of % discounts in SD. Each needs to apply a % to the price, not to the value (SAP default), so the price per unit decreases with each discount.  The result is a slightly different final total value from the standard method.  I can’t find a way in standard config, all I can do is a standard value: can you suggest anything?  Do I need a custom requirement?

SAP Quick Tip: Finding SAP User Exits

SAP User Exits…  Depending on your perspective, they are either a saving grace which allows you to bend SAP to your liking, or a frightening Carte Blanche which allows your clients to do the most crazy stuff (and later ask you to fix it).  Either way, they are a critical tool for an SAP consultant.  Their number is legion and here is how to find them.  …all of them.

In a prior Website Update post, I celebrated my site having hit the meager milestone of 1,000 page views in a month.  My how times have changed.  January 2016 has come and gone, and with it a couple of cool milestones have been met.

SAP Quick Tip: Find IMG Transaction Codes

I’m often impressed by how some consultants can rattle off transaction codes for IMG configuration activities. Want to create a new SD Item Category? Sure, just go to VoV7… I usually choose to navigate using the IMG’s navigation tree (SPRo) but every so often it is handy to be able to directly access IMG transaction codes.  Here’s a little trick I discovered for finding some of those shortcuts.
