Course Outline

Practicals

Overview

Hands-on practicals are integral to this course, allowing learners to apply SAP navigation, transaction processing, and reporting skills in a live SAP system environment. These exercises reinforce theoretical concepts and build confidence in using SAP for real-world business processes.

Practical Activities

• SAP Navigation and Master Data — Learners log on to the SAP system, navigate using the GUI, personalize their interface, and create basic master data records (material master, vendor master). (4h)
• Procure-to-Pay and Order-to-Cash Cycles — Learners execute the procure-to-pay cycle (purchase requisition, purchase order, goods receipt, invoice verification) and the order-to-cash cycle (sales order, delivery, goods issue, billing). (6h)
• Reporting and Configuration — Learners generate standard reports in FI, MM, and SD, create a simple QuickViewer report, and perform basic configuration changes in the IMG (e.g., define company code). (4h)
• Integrated Case Study — Learners work through an end-to-end case study that integrates procurement, sales, and finance processes, demonstrating cross-module data flow. (2h)

Summatives

Each delegate is assessed continuously throughout the course via daily exercises, scored practical assignments, and a final summative test at the end.

Practical Assignments — 30%

Practical assignments are observed and scored against a rubric during the practical sessions. Each delegate's practical mark is averaged into a single 100% score and contributes 30% to the final total.

Daily Exercises — 20%

Every training day ends with a multiple-choice exercise scored out of 100%. The scores from each daily exercise are averaged across the duration of the course to produce a Daily Average mark, which contributes 20% to the final total.

Final Test — 50%

On the last day a final summative test is written. It is a multiple-choice paper with multiple-answer questions: each question may have more than one correct option, and a single wrong selection on a question marks the entire question wrong — no partial credit. The final test is scored out of 100% and contributes 50% to the overall mark.

Final Total

Component	Out of	Weight
Practical Assignments (rubric-scored)	100%	30%
Daily Average (multiple choice)	100%	20%
Final Test (multi-answer multiple choice)	100%	50%
Final Total	—	100%

All marks are recorded on the AATICD LMS and visible to each learner under their account.
