Bio

I am a former Platinum Consultant with SAP America and have been working with SAP since 1996. I've spent most of that time working extensively in the Finance arena and am currently serving as a Managing Partner at Serio Consulting. I have been working with S/4HANA Finance since sFIN release 1.0 and continuing up to the current S/4HANA 2020 release. Within FI/CO I have a strong history with the capital accounting areas inclusive of Project Systems, Investment Management, and Asset Accounting. This experience goes all the way back to R/2, R/3 (release 2.2 through 4.7), ERP 6.0 and the current S/4HANA release. I've also implemented several new SAP solutions such as Asset Lifecycle Accounting (ALA), Asset Retirement Obligation Management (AROM), Commercial Project Management (CPM) and the New Asset Accounting (FIN_AA_PARALLEL_VAL). I'm very active in the SAP community and try and lend my support wherever it has value. I'm a frequent author and speaker on a wide range of SAP ERP and BI issues and currently serve as a technical editor for both the SAP Financials Expert and BW Expert publications. I regularly speak at industry conferences such as SAP's ASUG conference and those hosted by the ''Expert'' publications; the SAP Financials Conference, BI/Portals Conference, and Reporting & Analytics Conference. If you're looking for specific and pragmatic SAP information, I have an ongoing blog series on SAP's SCN site that is worth reading. I'm also an ex-SAP Mentor on SCN. The SAP Mentor initiative identifies and provides special status to exceptional and high-value members of SAP Community Network (SCN).
