Priority 1 skills
1. SAP correspondence and trigger mechanisms
- How SAP triggers correspondence: event-driven (ad hoc, single) versus mass batch runs such as billing, invoicing and dunning via FPCOPARA
- Working knowledge of the SAP Correspondence Tool, Correspondence Container and Print Workbench (application forms, form classes)
- Identifying which SAP tables and fields hold the required data: Business Partner, Contract Account, Contract, Meter Reading, document line items
- Writing clear data contracts for what SAP passes to the rendering engine (e.g. Quadient Inspire): XML/JSON payload definitions, field types, cardinalities, fallbacks and transformation logic
3. Functional requirements engineering
- Implementation-ready specs covering trigger events, data extraction rules, conditional logic (e.g. "if customer type = B2B and country = DE, render text block X") and fallback rules for missing data
- Multi-channel dispatch routing: print shop via spool/OMS, transactional email, customer portal
4. Hands-on SAP navigation and data checks
- Navigating SAP GUI independently: SE16N/SE11 for tables, FPL9 for account balance and correspondence history, SP01/SM37 for spool and job monitoring
- Confirming whether a trigger fired and inspecting the raw payload in SAP without calling in a developer for basic checks
5. E2E test design and test data
- Defining and running Product Increment Tests (PIT) and Business Process Tests (BPT): happy path, edge cases (special characters, long names, negative balances) and error scenarios
- Finding or staging valid test accounts and contracts in lower SAP tiers (DV1, FV1, QV1) that reflect real customer constellations
6. Interface and dependency management
- Acting as functional translator between upstream business squads (Billing, Sales, Service), SAP ABAP/integration engineers and downstream document designers (CCM/Inspire team)
