SAP BW Certification Exam

The exam contains 80 questions and the time allotted for this 3 hours.

Time duration is more than enough for 80 questions. The only thing you should have is Patience because you really get tired after reading all this questions and the respective 5 options for each question and that too confusing ones.
The exam is divided in to 6 sections. The first section is Extraction and in this section you have 16 questions.

The Second section is based on Reporting and this section contains the maximum number of question compared to other sections. The total numbers of questions in this section are 26. It test your knowledge completely on BEx tool. The note in BW CLASS INPUT FOR REORTING is really excellent. Make sure that you also go through REPORTING MADE EASY GUIDE. You don't have to go through all 500 pages. Just read chapters 3,4,6,7 and 8. It just takes 2 days to read these chapters in detail. When you read these guide try to work on the system as much as possible and build as many queries as possible. This will help you in remembering the concepts. Working on the system is really necessary because there are so many things which you can realize only when you build query. This will help you a lot when answering the question on reporting.

REPORTING MADE EASY GUIDE is based on BW 2.0B. But chapters 3, 4, 6, and 7 does not have as many changes compare to BW 3.0B. You will have to read some extra documents for chapter 8 (Reporting Agent) because it only covers Exceptions and Printing. You have to read some papers on CRYSTAL REPORTING, WEB TEMPLATE AND BOOKMARKS. Also, I followed all the point in BW CLASS INPUT for WAD and started working on the system.

The 3rd section is WARE HOUSE MANAGEMENT. This section contains 20 question.

The 4th section is Project. There are only 4 questions in this section and I think that u should not miss a single scoring
opportunity this section. The questions in these sections were like what steps are taken after a Blueprint? What all you do in analysis? How important the end users are while defining a data model.

The 5th section is Authorization. There are only 4 questions in this section and even in this section you should not miss a single scoring opportunity this section.

The last section is SAP BW Data Modeling. It contains 10 questions. Make sure that your concepts are clear for attributes, hierarchy and aggregates.
