Hire SAP ABAP Developers | Nearshore Software Development

ABAP is the high-level programming language created by SAP for building enterprise applications on the SAP platform. You need an expert who can write clean, performant, and modern ABAP code to customize and extend your SAP systems. Our vetting finds developers who are masters of ABAP, from classic reports and Dynpro to modern ABAP on HANA, RAP, and Core Data Services.

Is your custom ABAP code slow, inefficient, and difficult to maintain?

The Problem

Legacy ABAP code is often procedural, inefficient, and doesn't take advantage of the underlying HANA database, leading to slow performance and a high total cost of ownership. It becomes a bottleneck for critical business processes.

The TeamStation AI Solution

We vet for developers who are experts in modern, object-oriented ABAP and performance tuning. They must demonstrate the ability to write efficient Open SQL, leverage Core Data Services (CDS) views for a 'code-to-data' paradigm, and build scalable solutions that perform optimally on SAP HANA.

Proof: Adoption of modern ABAP syntax and significant performance improvement in custom reports and transactions.
Are you struggling to build custom extensions that are upgrade-safe?

The Problem

Modifying standard SAP objects directly is a recipe for disaster, creating huge challenges during system upgrades and patches. This approach is brittle and creates a massive maintenance burden.

The TeamStation AI Solution

Our experts are proficient in modern SAP extension methodologies. They are vetted on their ability to use Business Add-Ins (BAdIs), enhancement spots, and the SAP Cloud Platform Extension Suite to build custom logic that is decoupled from the core, ensuring your extensions are stable and upgrade-safe.

Proof: Implementation of decoupled, upgrade-safe extensions using modern enhancement frameworks.

Our Technical Analysis for SAP ABAP

The ABAP evaluation focuses on building robust and performant extensions for SAP systems. Candidates are required to solve a complex business requirement by writing a custom ABAP program, demonstrating their mastery of modern syntax and data access techniques. A critical assessment is their ability to design a data model using CDS views and expose it as an OData service. We also test their knowledge of the SAP enhancement framework and their ability to find and implement the correct BAdI for a given requirement.
