SAP Consultant (Project @ Chevron)
SAP SD and IS Oil Consultant -
Special Achievement:
•Developed an Enhancement in Pricing for Additive Pricing -
The new functionality which I developed would help in pricing the products with additives which are added to the main product in some percentage. This functionality has been developed using new custom tables and new pricing routines coupled with standard IS oil functionality of F & A pricing. The new configuration was developed to avoid constant updating of the pricing formulae in the system and also to take care of multiple handoffs between Business and SAP team .The external manual work is also avoided in the new functionality. This new functionality assumes a great importance now that all the fuels are moving towards the ethanol based products.

SAP Divestiture Projects
Cognizant
Increasing globalization, ever-changing market dynamics and volatile business conditions require organizations to become more agile and flexible to ensure sustainability, growth and business continuity. Companies must be aware of all the factors that impact their businesses and understand how to embrace new technologies and ways of working that can deliver enhanced business benefits, and avoid shortcomings. These dynamics are making it even more important for companies to be laser focused on their business cores while divesting and/or turning to partners for activities considered noncore.
This white paper focuses on operational separation issues and choices encountered by the buyer company during the migration of the selling entity’s IT infrastructure.

        We hired Ani to help with the final stages of blueprinting our SD pricing solution. He stepped in, immediately engaged and was contributing in a very short time. Ani is very bright, easy to work with, and teams very well with both the IT and the business members of our teams. 
He knows SAP very well, and seems to enjoy taking on and solving challenges. I would highly recommend Ani for any SAP SD consulting role, especially for those where the consultant has to work directly with Business "users". He does that extremely well!
