Professional Summary * Mr. Russo has 19 years of extensive SAP consulting experience and is SAP ASAP certified. This experience includes, but it is not limited to, assisting clients and system/business users in the configuration of SAP during and after the implementation in identifying and resolving problems, designing alternatives, designing and implementing security authorizations, testing, training preparation and facilitation, and implementing and configuring SAP business solutions. Very experienced working with and managing global teams across countries and cultures having worked in Europe, Asia, North-South America, and off-shore consultants. Expert in integration processes like Order to Cash (Good issue, Billing and Cash applications), and Procure to Pay (Goods Receipts, Invoice Receipts, and Payments), and other Netweaver components: BI, BI-IP, BPC, APO, XI/PI etc. completed multiple full life cycle implementations from project preparation, scoping and blue printing through configuration, testing (all cycles), go-live and post go-live support, includes EDI Intercompany Taxes (Vertex Taxware and Sabrix VAT SAP standard) Conversions (Vendor and Customer master records CoA and G/L accounts Open A/R PO and non-PO Open Invoices) and Interfaces to/from SAP and other SAP/Non-SAP products. Very experienced in New G/L parallel ledger and IFRS creating multiple ledgers to satisfy mandatory regulatory country requirements by maintaining one single global chart of accounts while posting to different ledgers. Countries with specific g/l account numbers (like France) had the g/l accounts maintained as alternative account numbers to satisfy regulatory reporting and financial statements. Due to USGAAP and IFRS convergence I always recommended the creation of multiple ledgers to create history postings to facilitate the transition and future migration. The modules installed included FI modules (NEW G/L A/P A/R A/M and TREASURY) CO modules product costing MM modules SD modules plant maintenance and BW (reporting and consolidation) and interfaces and conversions.
