Learning SAP Basis , What Software Do I need ?

[Former Member]

I am looking at tapping into SAP and want to start out learning to be a SAP Administrator.

In order to learn SAP Basis what actual software do I need to download, where to download it ?

If I could setup and configure the server side it could lay down a foundation to learn some more of the modules.

Hi,

Through the website of SDN forum, you can download the trial version from this link.

https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/nw-downloads

Its is a very good place to start, but I dont think, SAP is kind of Software you can learn by ursefl and master it, you need a proffessional training.

Even installation requires more shopsticated knowledge about SAP, like installing the instances in sequence like (Database software(with out inbuit DB), Central Instance, Dialog Instance and so on).

If you are very serious about making a plunge into the world of SAP then training is a must.

All the best & welcome to world of SAP

HI Frank

The other thing that you may try is going through the e-books recommended for WAS / Netweaver Certifications.That would assist you a lot to learn and give confidence for hands on.

Hi

Jazz is correct that you cannot download and learn SAP. However it would be good if you can arrange the SAPINST and then go for hands on practice over it or configure a Demo Education Server.

Hello Frank,

Its good to know your interest in SAP basis. But unfortunately, SAP is not a free software which you can download and install.. To learn basis, you will need real hands on with the SAP system.

http://help.sap.com is where the sap documentation is. but i dont know how helpful it will be for you without knowing the basics.
