Summary

Dear Sir or Madam,

As I am convinced that I can effectively support your SAP team and your customers, I am applying to you proactively.

I ask that you treat our communication and the documents provided as strictly confidential.

My qualifications at a glance (detailed information in the profile):

  • SAP SD consultant, over 25 years of experience
  • Operating through my own GmbH provides legal security
  • Consulting / Customizing / Support & Maintenance / Training
  • Experience in adjacent modules such as MM including CRM 3.0 and 4.0
  • End-customer references confirm a high quality of services provided
  • Fully set-up ECC 6.0 SAP system (for customer prototyping and continuous training), which I operated together with an SAP logistics developer
  • Currently setting up and expanding an SAP S/4HANA system (for customer prototyping and continuous training) which I operate with an SAP logistics developer and that is constantly being enhanced functionally
  • If desired, team formation with my developer colleague (for highly complex business processes and requirements that require development effort), focusing on SD and migration.

My S/4HANA qualifications at a glance:

S/4HANA on-premise system that I operate together with my business partner (own S-user account for our S/4 system!).

We set up this system in a greenfield approach – alongside other external projects and support projects that are still running on SAP ECC systems.

The goal is to use the S/4HANA on-premise system as a basis for customer customizing and developments while continuously expanding our own skills. The same approach we already followed with our 'old' SAP ECC system.

My personal time investment in the S/4HANA system so far: approx. 1200 net hours (excluding investment and licensing costs)

What has been implemented in our S/4HANA system so far (not based on 'Best Practices'):

  • Complete customizing of the required processes (partly outside the standard SAP number ranges)
  • Building the entire organizational structure (SALES, Purchasing, Warehouse, SERVICE etc.)
  • CVI (Customer-Vendor Integration) completed
  • Implementation of basic SD functionalities: orders, deliveries, invoices (additional specialized functions/subprocesses will be added as needed)
  • MM movements including LEAN WM (not classic WM or EWM in S/4)
  • Basic logic for New General Ledger and basic FI customizing set up (the goal was a correctly working FI value flow system)
  • Installation of standard FIORI apps and their communication with S/4HANA
  • Currently, my business partner and I are working on SAP S/4HANA SERVICE basics as well as S/4HANA embedded Transportation Management.

General parameters:

  • Availability: 40% max 60% (2-3 days per week, local) as of today
  • Rate: VHS

I look forward to supporting your customers with my expertise and am available for a personal conversation. Thank you in advance for your feedback and the opportunity to discuss further details of a possible collaboration in a meeting.

For preliminary information, you are welcome to contact me via mobile +49 171 2700 392 or via email [email]

Best regards Holger Schröder
