If you want to be a functional HR person, then you will not need to do the ABAP course. If you want to focus on technical HR, ie. developing and changing HR programs, developing/change reports - possibly go onto portal, then you will need to do the ABAP course.

What you will do is all depend on where you will work. If you are a consultant, then you could do implementations and support. If you work for an organisation that currently has SAP implemented, then you will probably likely focus on support. Remember doing support work can also mean upgrading to new versions.

Good luck

hey leane, thanks for your comment, just wanted to ask that do i need to be an abap hr for me to become a consultant or i am a consultant in sap hr even if i dont do an abap hr course.

If you do the normal configuration courses, then you will be a SAP HR functional consultant (normal HR consultant). You don't need to be an ABAPer to be a functional consultant.

If you want to become a technical HR consultant (or ABAP HR consultant) then the ABAP course (plus experience in ABAP) is a must.

I am a functional consultant. I leave the development changes (ie. abaping) to the HR ABAP consultants - as they are the experienced ones in that field. We work together side by side and complement each other. I have quite a bit of experience and taught myself to read ABAP code which I find comes in handy sometimes. I haven't done the abap course and won't attempt to write my own program.... yet!!

Some consulting companies may want a functional AND technical consultant rolled into one....but I haven't come across one of those yet.
