SAP SD Certification

I am researching on SAP SD certification and found this page quite informative, thus taking a note here:

SAP SD Certification (URL: http://sap-certification.info/sd/)

This page is intended to serve as a starting point for everyone who wants to pass SAP SD Certification or for those who are just curious about SAP SD (Sales and Distribution) and SAP certification. SAP ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) system consists of a number of modules. Each of the modules covers certain business area of a company that uses SAP. 

There are modules for Finance Accounting, Controlling, Production Planning, Materials Management, Business Intelligence, etc. SAP SD is one of those modules and it was designed to facilitate the following business processes in an enterprise. 
  • Customer Master and Material Master Data
  • Sales Orders
  • Deliveries
  • Pricing
  • Billing
  • Credit Management
SAP Education has developed several certification exams for evaluation of knowledge and skills of SAP consultants in SAP SD implementation and customization. The name of the certification varies depending on the expertise level, for example:

SAP SD Certification for the first level is called:
  1. SAP Certified Application Associate - Order Fulfilment with SAP ERP 6.0 EHP4
  2. SAP Certified Application Associate - Order Fulfilment with SAP ERP 6.0 EHP5
SAP EHP - Enhancement Package = Oracle CPU - Critical Patch Update

There are differences in the software versions (EHP4 or EHP5), but these differences are not related to SAP SD module. Currently SAP offers certification at associate, professional and master levels. 

SAP SD Certification Books (URL: http://sap-certification.info/sd/sap-sd-books/)

If you are completely new to SAP SD, it is probably a good idea to first get one of SAP SD Books and grasp some basics. On the other hand, it also makes sense to browse SAP Books if you are already experienced SAP consultant. The level of SAP Books varies and everyone will definitely find and learn something new from the books.
