Let's take a look at some commonly used modules.
1. ABAP.
This is the most important module in SAP.
It is an advanced programming language that provides programmers with convenient, fast, and traffic-free work results.
It is also the most inseparable link with other modules, and all modules are based on this module.
However, if you want to become an expert in this module, the effort required is indispensable.
2. Financial management.
For accounting professionals, practice makes perfect in this aspect.
Therefore, learning SAP is much easier.
The balance of assets and liabilities, the planning of accounting accounts, and the production of accounting statements will also be much more convenient through SAP software.
SAP can help you analyze a plan suitable for your situation, list corresponding attention points, and even detect some errors, greatly strengthening accounting management capabilities.
3. Type of human resources.
Large companies often have a large number of employees, and it is extremely difficult to manage and sort them manually by the human resources department. Faced with a thick list, it usually takes a long time to manage the personnel allocation.
The human resources department is always under great pressure as old problems remain unaddressed and new problems continue to arise.
After applying SAP software to systematically help manage human resources, the number of data relied on manual statistics has been reduced. SAP can develop a series of plans based on specific situations to help improve company operations.
4. Procurement and sales.
One of the important modules in SAP involves the maintenance and operation of relationships, data, and information between materials, suppliers, and customers.
