SAP BASIS COURSE OUTLINE
Introduction
SAP Basis is the glue that holds together the SAP
landscape. Different divisions of a business use SAP to perform different jobs,
such as shipping product, controlling manufacturing and tracking sales leads,
but everything relies on the same core system.
SAP Basis administrators not only make sure all SAP components & applications can communicate with each other, but do so
with no end user or backend processing performance degradation. Issues
continuously crop up in any technical layer of a SAP landscape and it’s up to
SAP Basis support to keep the enterprise cloud, database and application
healthy. Basis administrators install updates, monitor the system for errors
and tweak SAP to be faster and more reliable.
