In addition to the consultants working in the individual SAP modules, there is a subarea here that is not directly apparent to many and whose activities seem to be quite opaque: SAP Basis. The smooth operation of SAP systems as the heart of many companies is ensured by the work of SAP Basis administrators.

Based on a client/server architecture, SAP Basis includes configuration, a relational database management system, and a graphical user interface.
