Please allow me the opportunity to introduce myself.<\/p>\n

I’m an SAP Certified Technical Consultant (ABAP) with 19 years full-time experience in the SAP marketplace. \u00a0Since my certification in June of 1998, I have participated in numerous implementations and upgrades, as well as provided ongoing service and support as part of a sustainment team.<\/p>\n

The past 8 years have seen me specialize in HR \/ HCM development. \u00a0In addition to service and support roles, I have participated in 6 successful HR implementations for both US and Canadian payroll. \u00a0These implementations included gross and net payroll (PY), time management (PT), personnel administration (PA), organizational management (OM) and benefits.<\/p>\n

Beginning in 2014, we saw considerable changes with SAP, most notable, their core product offerings (S\/4HANA), methods of delivery (cloud), and their new front-end\/UX (Fiori). \u00a0These new and emerging technologies have placed additional demands on SAP developers. \u00a0New development tools, such as the SAP Web IDE (integrated development environment) and the SAP Cloud Platform (platform-as-a-service) lets developers build, extend, and integrate business apps in the cloud.<\/p>\n

Endeavoring to stay current, I partnered with SAP (Wagner Consulting Services Inc.) in Application Integrator (Build), SAP Cloud Platform (WebIDE, IoT, Portal) and Cloud Platform Integration. \u00a0This partnership has also allowed me to participate in, and successfully complete a\u00a0number of training courses which include:<\/p>\n

\u25a0 \u00a0SAP Fiori Development
\n\u25a0 \u00a0SAPUI5, JavaScript, and HTML5 Development
\n\u25a0 \u00a0SAP Cloud Platform
\n\u25a0 \u00a0SAP Web IDE
\n\u25a0 \u00a0SAP Cloud Portal
\n\u25a0 \u00a0Hybrid App Toolkit (HAT)
\n\u25a0 \u00a0SAP Gateway (OData, REST)
\n\u25a0 \u00a0SAP Basis (Solution Manager, ECC 6.0 EHP 7.0)<\/p>\n

This training was supplemented by having the ability to connect to my own “on-premise” IDES System to do complete ‘end-to-end’ setup and configuration. I have installed, configured, extended and enhanced dozens of Fiori apps for Human Resources (HR\/HCM), Sales and Distribution (SD), and Materials Management (MM).<\/p>\n

If you are staffing-up for a Fiori project or would like to see a proof-of-concept, please feel free to contact me.<\/p>\n
