Hi Kanth,

BI is a good technology ur are chaning according to the ternd

Pls check these docs for certification purpose BI 7.0:-

If you want to do BI 7.0 certification you need below BOOKs which is provided by

SAP:

TBW10 (BI – Enterprise Data Warehousing)

TBW20 (BI – Reporting & Query Design)

TBW41 (BI – Extraction with UDI & XI and APD)

TBW42 (BI – Advanced Enterprise Data Warehousing & Reporting)

TBW45 (BI – Integrated Planning)

For more Inforamtion regarding BI certification Go to Servie market place

www.service.sap.com/education/

If and only if you have experience on this version BI 7.0 then go for it, Becaue the look and feel of the BI 7.0 is different from the BW 3.x. There are lot of changes in the BI 7.0.

Other wise I would suggest you to aim for 3.5 certification

You can find the required documentation at the URL

BW 3.5:-

If you want to go for BW 3.5 certification then you need to go through below BOOKs which is provided by SAP:

TBW10 (BI – Enterprise Data Warehousing)

TBW20 (BI – Reporting & Query Design)

TBW30 (BI – Extraction )

TBW40 (BI – Advanced Enterprise Data Warehousing )

TBW45 (BI – Integrated Planning)

If you want to become a certified Solution Consultant on SAP NetWeaver '04 (BW 3.5), then you have to know the latest functionality which includes for example Business Planning and Simulation. Please check the curriculum for the certification that you are interested in:

http://service.sap.com/~form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01100035870000485581

The second point is that there is a delta certification available. So if you are already certified on BW 3.0, then you only need a delta certification (with half the questions) to become certified on BW 3.5.

The questions are confidential and can not be shared. There's also a large pool of questions and they are selected randomly for each certification exam. In general, the answers can be found in the training material provided by SAP. The questions are mostly multiple-choice and have various degrees of difficulty (easy, medium, difficult). They can be categorized into "Knowledge", "Comprehension", "Application", and "Analysis" questions.

I would categorize the questions mentioned in the forum as easy to medium knowledge/comprehension. There will be also more difficult questions during the exam. I agree with other comments made here that experience alone might not be enough to pass especially if you have not worked in a few areas of BW or do not know new functionality. It's therefore recommended to study the training material provided by SAP or take part in one class room training on BW 3.5. Check the SAP Service Marketplace, which courses are a prerequisite and the current list of topics that are covered.
