Rant incoming: SAP Fieldglass is a PITA for service providers/suppliers. What a terrible UX. What a massive waste of time, which is difficult to make the client pay for. Filter functionality for time-sheets is only possible for dates. no filter for projects, neither Main Document ID, nor Status. (do not tell me I can export it and filter in Excel) Time Sheet overview does not show the actual internal order number, which is used in client communication (ordering process). So, if I have a client with more than one internal order, where I can bill, I have to open any available time-sheets for the same time period to see, if I have chosen the right timesheet for the right internal order. Seriously, I have been professionally dealing with procurement processes of consultancy services (projects/support) on either side of the table, but I have not seen such a badly composed platform. From my POV: it could be that SAP may more hear the client-needs in term of what the system should be able to do and how to do it (focus on clean accounting). The other main stakeholder (consultants), who need to start their billing process/time-sheet-submission process in Fieldglass on a daily or weekly base, seem to be ignored. End of the rant.

🔔Do you think sales are challenging? You will change your views after learning McDermott's views on secrets to being a successful salesperson. ✔️Bill McDermott had supercharged SAP growth and doubled its revenue during his term as CEO. ☑️I watched his interview in David Rubenstein's show, and what stuck with me the most was his clarity of thought, clear communication and conviction. In the very first answer, he said, “I saw the future.” However, the most valuable part of the conversation is the hidden simple sales lessons. I am reproducing Bill's answers verbatim to the question, “What is the secret to being a good salesperson?” 🔳 You can get anything in the life you want if you help enough other people get what they want. I care about what you want. I care about what you need. When I understand that I can compose solutions with my team no matter what. ✅If I say something to customer, make a promise then no matter what happens I will keep that promise. I will never break my word. ✅I always take a long view and not focus on short term only. I always think what do we got to look 5 years from now or may be even 10 years from now. ✅I need to keep up with ideas that the clients don’t even know they need to know about. But we need to know where we need to take them. Then we have to invent the future for them. Though simple words but profound value. #techsales

Lately, I've noticed a significant demand for VIM Consultants within the Consumer Goods, Retail, and Fashion industries across Europe. Businesses are on the lookout for VIM experts and, guess what? Candidates know their worth. That means they’re expecting competitive salaries. For global companies embarking on their S/4 digital transformation journeys, compliance is key. All companies, must be able to receive electronic invoices by 1st September, 2026. So, implementing SAP DRC with mandatory e-invoicing and e-reporting is mandatory especially if the goal is a sustainable and scalable solution without juggling multiple integrations and tools. So, the big question is: Are you staying competitive in the market? Candidates: What do you look for when searching for a new role? Hiring Managers: What do you look for in candidate's when making a new hire? What's most important?

In 2022, SAP hired 4,546 new full time employees. In 2023, they "restructured" 3,961, which is a nice way of saying they made local staff redundant in lieu of cost benefits offshore (Source: CNBC). Shareholders reacted with a boost in share price by 5%. In 2024, they've now announced 8,000 roles will be "restructured" due to artificial intelligence. This boosted their share price by 7%. SAP's workforce is less than 100,000 people for the first time since 2018. Shareholders have reacted positively towards staff being made redundant, roles being offshored, and #AI replacing jobs. Companies need to adapt, fast.

Are SAP and Oracle "product companies"? Not really. Yes, they have a product, but they win based on their sales and marketing operations and their service and consulting businesses, and the ecosystem built around them, rather than based on their product itself. They could transform into full-on product companies, but it's going to be hard, because they'll then need to compete based on an awesome product rather than their less scaleable sales and service business. This may be the best thing for their investors, and for their customers, because with scalability comes margin, and leverage... But it may mean divesting some high-margin service business.

<Post-Support> //*Why is CS-CRM not explored more? &&- It’s a known fact that most industries that uses SAP as their internal system already have their infrastructures and architecture in place. Any new proposal will definitely be an extension of a functioning architecture(n) which must also be accommodated by the MiddleWare layer. &&- Within SAP system, majority of the industries currently using SAP today has already captured their organizational structures for all business entities and it’s required object oriented attributes for Sales, Materials, Engineering, Logistics, Warehouse and Accounting sectors. &&- These industries that’s currently running their day to day transactions with SAP already have most of the intended processes customized and configured. Any new customization or configuration request will definitely be for accommodating a new(SAP/Non_SAP)PARTNER, or for enhancing current processes to suite a specific function irrespective of the Module, and their communication output and files will be determined respectively. &&- Most of the issues that occur after goLive is pushed to the OPs Team that mostly utilizes a ticketing tool to log all issues. The OPs team goal are; to work on each incident ticket raised, to identify trends counts and propose an automated solution to handle them, to find a problem and solve them as they’re noticed, and to maintain job aids for end users on day-to-day tasks. </Pre-To-Post Activities> //*Why is a funnel Required?
