Hi all,

I am a very new consulting analyst working in a team on a greenfield S4HANA implementation for a major retailer in Australia.

I find myself having to consult on things which I am very unfamilliar with as I am learning myself, do you have any advice for someone new entering this space? What resources are best used to gain knowledge in large scale implementations like this?
