The Group Reporting training portfolio for SAP S/4HANA has been rebuilt and is now natively designed for self-paced learning but also available as classroom training. This is an important step in producing digital content for Finance in line with the latest course design principles, as already outlined in my previous blog ‘New Trainings to Achieve Business Process Skills for SAP S/4HANA’.

All learners from SAP customers and partners and who want to achieve skills on SAP Group Reporting are recommended to use the following learning journeys:

• Introducing SAP S/4HANA Cloud for group reporting (foundational level / business user)
• Performing Consolidation with SAP S/4HANA Cloud for Group Reporting (intermediate level / business user and consultant)
• Implementing SAP S/4HANA Cloud for group reporting (intermediate level / business user and consultant)

A fourth learning journey will focus on Consolidation of Investments and is currently in production. The four new learning journeys will replace the traditional course portfolio (S4F94, S4F95, S4F96). As a result, the associate certification for SAP Group Reporting will be discontinued.

While foundational learning journeys focus on business process skills and mainly address business users, intermediate level learning journeys also include configuration knowledge and are therefore targeted at both, business users and consultants.

All learning journeys include a summary of all related delivery formats:

• A Record of Achievement is available for all foundational and intermediate learning journeys and will be issued to a learner once a significant part of all questions included at the end of each chapter are answered correctly.
• Some learning journeys offer the opportunity to book a system for Hands-on Practice. Learners are encouraged to use exercises provided, which are considered valuable practice regardless of whether they plan to implement SAP S/4HANA Cloud for Group Reporting or SAP S/4HANA Finance for Group Reporting (the on-premise or private cloud system environment). Access to training systems requires a valid subscription to SAP Learning Hub, professional edition or solution edition for Finance and a booking of the respective Learning System access.
• The SAP Learning Class part takes you to related classroom offering and all scheduled classroom events.

The links to all relevant and future learning journeys for SAP Group Reporting are summarized on the following landing pages:

• Landing page for SAP S/4HANA Cloud, Finance
• Landing Page for SAP S/4HANA, Financial Consolidation

The classic SAP Group Reporting learning journey on help.sap.com and SAP Learning Hub has been adjusted so that the new recommended learning paths are reflected accordingly.

Our next step will be to produce the next and the last Group Reporting learning journey.

Please watch out for further announcements!
