Real-World Scenario
As a consultant, you need to understand the underlying architecture that the SAP S/4HANA system is built on. SAP HANA is at the core of the SAP strategy, and you need to feel comfortable explaining this technology to your customers in simple terms. SAP HANA is a faster database, but there’s more information you should be able to pass on without scaring nontechnical people off. SAP HANA is often perceived as expensive, so understanding technologies such as compression and columnar store on a high level can help you build a case to alter this perception for your potential customers.
The SAP S/4HANA system is a separate product line from the old SAP ERP system. SAP ERP is no longer the default go-to enterprise resource planning (ERP) platform for SAP. This was a huge change and a business decision with quite a large risk for SAP. It has proven to be successful, and more and more customers are persuaded by the true benefits of the new system. But what’s special about it? How difficult is it to adopt? How can customers move to SAP S/4HANA, and do they risk losing the (potentially) millions they have invested in the “old” software? You need to be able to explain the reasons for this move by SAP and what it means for new and existing SAP customers.
Finally, SAP Fiori is the default graphical user interface (GUI) for end users in SAP S/4HANA, so you need to be able to use it with confidence, explain its components, and describe the benefits it brings. Explain the importance of a simple interface with great usability and applications that can be used on mobile device and on desktops. You should also have knowledge of how the tile groups, tile catalogs, roles, and users cooperate to form what the user sees on his own SAP Fiori launchpad.
