  • Develop or recommend sustainable corrective solutions and coordinate resolution with Level 1 and Level 2 support resources, SAP functional teams, ABAP developers, integration teams, managed-service providers, and software vendors
  • Provide senior functional expertise during critical incidents, including business-impact assessment, workaround identification, solution validation, and clear communication
  • Identify recurring incident patterns, improve troubleshooting documentation, and provide knowledge transfer that enables support resources to resolve similar issues independently

  • Support SAP SD integration with Finance, Materials Management, warehouse or logistics systems, customer platforms, and other internal and external applications. Understand and evaluate the downstream and upstream impact of SD design decisions across Finance, Materials Management, Planning, Warehouse Management/EWM, Transportation Management, master data, and integration platforms
  • Apply functional knowledge of common Order-to-Billing EDI transactions, including EDI 850 Purchase Order, 855 Purchase Order Acknowledgment, and 810 Invoice
  • Analyze issues involving inbound and outbound EDI documents, ECC IDOC processing, S/4HANA event-based API integration, master data, sales orders, deliveries, shipment information, and invoices
  • Work with integration and development teams to determine whether issues originate in SAP configuration, master data, mapping, middleware, or external partner systems
  • Review functional designs and proposed solutions from internal and external resources to help ensure they are technically sound, appropriately standardized, and consistent with the overall Order-to-Billing solution
  • Work directly with business process owners, key users, and IT colleagues to understand needs and recommend practical SAP solutions
  • Explain SAP capabilities and constraints clearly to technical and non-technical audiences
  • Identify opportunities to simplify processes, reduce manual work, improve reliability, and increase use of standard SAP functionality
  • Perform functional solution and design reviews for work delivered by internal resources and consulting partners, identifying gaps, unnecessary customization, integration risks, and opportunities to use standard SAP functionality
