focused on executing the data migration tasks.
? Experience Level: The Manager role requires significantly more experience in
project management and data migration.
? Responsibilities: The Manager oversees the entire process, while the
Consultant focuses on the technical execution.
? LSMW Focus: Both roles emphasize LSMW expertise, but the Consultant will be
more involved in the technical aspects of using LSMW.
? R/3 Specific: Both roles are tailored for SAP R/3, which is important to specify.
