SAP RAR Solution Architect

SAP RAR Solution Architect / Lead – Greenfield S/4

HANA Private Cloud (ECC → RISE)

Lead the architecture and delivery of a greenfield SAP Revenue Accounting and Reporting (RAR) solution as part of an ECC-to-S/4

HANA Private Cloud (RISE with SAP) transition. Serve as the bridge between accounting/business stakeholders and technical teams, translating complex revenue recognition requirements into a cohesive S/4

HANA architecture that complies with IFRS 15 / ASC 606 and integrates cleanly with OTC and downstream finance.

Own end-to-end RAR solution architecture: run Fit-to-Standard / explore-phase workshops, drive Key Design Decisions, and produce solution and RICEFW documentation aligned to SAP Activate methodology.

Configure RAR on S/4

HANA — revenue accounting contracts, performance obligations (POBs), BRFplus decision tables, account determination, and posting logic for point-in-time and over-time recognition.

Architect the Adapter Reuse Layer (ARL) and integrate OTC/SD sender components (orders, deliveries, billing), plus FI-CA/BRIM or third-party order systems, via Revenue Accounting Items (RAIs).

Design the inflight-contract transition and initial-load strategy; define the migration approach for revenue data moving off ECC.

Lead fit-gap analysis on complex revenue scenarios — bundled software/hardware/service deals, kitting and price re-determination, returns/credit-debit memo handling, and resource-related/project-based (WBS) billing.

Ensure RAR sub-ledger reconciliation with FI-GL and COPA; validate G/L postings with accounting teams and support disclosure/reporting needs.

Direct integration, regression, and UAT testing; lead cutover, go-live, and hypercare, including high-volume order conversion validation.

Mentor functional/configuration teams and support pre-sales activities (RFP responses, solution demos, orals) as needed.
