SAP oil&gas - where to start - Any advice on manuals/guides

$
0
0

Hello Gurus

 

I am new to Oil and gas and intend to pursue this segment for the future. I am an experienced computer professional (10+ years) I am fairly well versed with SAP-MM although experience is limited. I am keen to make a career in SAP Oil and Gas - possibly Upstream or Downstream whichever is possible to learn. I am in the midst of registering myself for a course  in Oil&Gas Accounting or Joint venture analyst. I have not found any course for Downstream. With that said, I have even rented a SAP Oil&gas server to practice. The problem is that I need to get some guidance as to how to go about this in a methodical way.

 

I have started to read the manuals along side the SAP - JVA guide that they use for training at SAP. However, there is no step by step guide/manual provided by SAP to really practice or build in order to learn and get a from grasp of the subject. I have found some configuration steps in the SAP Oil&Gas online help files or MySAPOil&Gas while reading. However, the reading of the manuals and online help is only theoretical. One needs some exercises to be performed in order to get a grasp of what is what. Where to start, what to configure outside of basic set-up and why?.

 

Would anybody be able to guide me as to how to pursue my goals?.

1. Is it possible to learn JVA by using the SAP training guide?.

 

2. Is it possible to learn TSW by using the SAP training guide?.

 

3. Does the system need to be configured and set-up before one can use the SAP Oil&Gas server?. - What specific configuration would be required for Downstream outside of the default configuration after installation.

 

4. What sort of configuration / set-up would be required for JVA?.

       (I am aware that every joint venture is different - partner, operator, Eguity group and even Equity)

   a. will the creation of company codes be the usual route as in other SAP modules?.

   b. Is there any special set-up or configuration within the JVA menu for this that is in addition to the normal creation of company code and Enterprise structure?.

  

5. Is there any book or manual that can provide additional information as to how to go about learning this subject in order to practice?.

 

6. What special requirements are required to learn the downstream module apart from the manuals?.

 

7. Can one really learn SAP upstream/Downstream in 30-40 hours being promised/provided by most so called training providers in Bangalore/Hyderabad?.

 

I am seriously looking forward to hearing from experienced professionals. I'd appreciate if contributors avoid one or two line statements as I would like to make the thread more meaningful for me and for others in a similar situation.

 

Thank you for you help and assistance.

Information on SAP Oil & Gas

Hi Experts,

 

Let me introduce myself. Kirubakar Ezhilmani. I have 2 years experience as an ABAP consultant. I have completed my SAP ABAP certification and SAP Business Foundation and Integration certification. So, I do have basic knowledge on most of the modules like SD, MM, FI/CO, WM, etc.

 

Now I would like to move into the SAP Oil & Gas field but unfortunately there is not much information available online. It would be very helpful if I get some guidance on the same.

 

I understand that SAP Oil & Gas has a Upstream and Downstream sector, each which can be mastered.

 

1. As a fresher into this field with technical and business knowledge about general SAP, what would be a preferred path for me - Upstream or Downstream?

 

2. I am currently residing in Saudi Arabia. Taking that into account which of the two paths will be better for me (career wise)?

 

3. Do both these streams have their own respective certifications? I have come to understand that the certification - "SAP Certified Application Associate - Supply Chain Planning and Execution with SAP Oil & Gas with SCM 7.0 EHP1" deals with the downstream sector. Is there a respective certification for the upstream sector.

Link - (https://training.sap.com/v2/certification/c_tiog20_65-sap-certified-application-associate---supply-chain-planning-and-execution-with-sap-for-oil--gas-with-scm-70-ehp1-g/)

 

4. If so, which certification should I do to get a fresher job in SAP Oil & Gas

I apologize in advance for bombarding with a lot of question, but this information would really help me to choose the correct career path.

 

Thanks and Regards

JVA Foreign Currency Revaluation

$

0

Hi,

 

We are implementing SAP-JVA for our client with New GL Active (Document Split not active). We wish to do the Foreign Currency Revaluation in JVA instead of FI using T-Code GJ91 (JVA Open Item Foreign Currency Revaluation).

 

As I understand, for the Unrealized Foreign Gain/Loss posting, the Cost Object that should get posted for the said UXD Loss/Gain Account should be the Original Cost Object (WBS in our case) derived from the expense line item. Hence, the Cost Object may/will vary for each line-item in the Unrealized Foreign Gain/Loss account. But the system is not picking the expense line Original Cost Object (WBS) inspite of maintaining the configurations and assignments in GJ56 for Exchange Difference Account, GJBA for assigning the respective UXD Loss/Gain and Balance Sheet Adjustment Account. Instead, while executing the Foreign Revaluation for Open Items in JVA, the system gives an Error saying that Cost Object is required for the UXD Loss/Gain Account as it is a Cost Element. When we maintain the OKB9 Default Account Assignment (Cost Center) for the Unrealized Foreign Gain/Loss account, then the Error is not there but the Cost Object is the one maintained in OKB9. Ideally it should be the Cost Object of the expense line item.

 

However, if I create the Unrealized Exchange Loss/Gain Accounts without Cost Element (example 6210720-Loss and 6110820-Gain), and assign the respective settings in GJ56 with Cost Element GL (6210710-Loss and 6110810-Gain), I still cannot post the UXD since the Program picks T8JK-COSTS which has GL Accounts with Cost Element and thus requires a Cost Object. The Balance Sheet Adjustment Account is though picked from T030H-LKORR in all cases.

 

We have implemented the SAP Note 998431 to enable GJ91 posting in New GL. I can see many other SAP Notes on the related issue but am not sure on which is the aappropriate note to be applied, if any.

 

We wish to process GJ91, GJNO and GJ90 in JVA in respect to Foreign Currency Revaluation. We wish to get the postings to Original Cost Object for all Exchange Difference related postings. Kindly suggest and recommend the relevant procedure and appropriate guidance to get things working.

 

Kindly revert back if you need any further clarification or information.

Hi Experts

 

When we are uploading the manual bank statements using transaction FF67, we are getting the error message FB727 "There are no transactions that have this amount's plus or minus sign"

 

We are using SAP version 4.7, I am not sure how this message is coming and how can we correct this

 

I could see there is a OSS note for this but that is not applicable for version 4.7 and above
