BCSE ERP certification — which SAP modules does the exam actually weight the most?
I'm starting my BCSE ERP prep and struggling to find a detailed exam blueprint. The business-process side of SAP I know reasonably well from consulting work, but I'm not sure whether this cert goes deep on configuration specifics or stays at the conceptual integration layer.
I've been doing SAP implementations for about 4 years, mostly FI/CO and some SD. My concern is that the exam might weight MM and PP more heavily than my experience covers, or that it dips into technical basis-layer content I've never touched professionally.
Has anyone taken this recently and can give a rough sense of the module split? I'm also curious whether it's scenario-based or more definitional. I've seen both styles in SAP certs and they require pretty different preparation approaches.
Planning about 6 weeks of prep at 1.5 hours per day. If anyone has a recommended resource beyond the official SAP Learning Hub content I'd be grateful — I'm finding the official materials dry and hard to gauge what's exam-relevant versus background filler.
The integration layer questions are definitely emphasized over deep configuration specifics, at least in the version I took about 8 months ago. Knowing how FI integrates with MM and SD at a process level was more useful than memorizing transaction codes.
I had roughly 40% FI/CO, 30% MM/SD, and the rest split across PP and cross-module reporting. That's just my rough impression from memory — the official blueprint may have shifted. Scenario questions were the majority format by a clear margin.
Don't underestimate the reporting and analytics section. It's not just transactional process knowledge — they test on standard SAP report types and what each one is designed to surface. That tripped up a few people I know who had strong process backgrounds.
The SAP Learning Hub content is dry but actually covers the exam topics pretty directly. I supplemented with ERPPrep practice questions and found the combination got me to passing. Scored 78% on my first attempt after 5 weeks of prep.
