Independent, reasoning-first practice for the SAP® C_TS412 Project Systems certification, built for the 2026 System-Based Assessment format.
Who it's for: Project Systems consultants and project managers — and business users stepping into an SAP S/4HANA Project System (PS) role — who want a recognized associate credential proving they can structure, plan, execute, and settle investment and logistics projects as a mentored member of an implementation project team.
The SAP® C_TS412 certification confirms that you can actually build and run projects in the SAP S/4HANA Enterprise Portfolio and Project Management (EPPM) Project System, not merely describe the theory. It spans the full project lifecycle — modelling work breakdown structures and networks, planning dates, costs, resources, materials and revenue, setting budgets and integrating investment management, executing activities through confirmations, procurement and billing, and closing periods with results analysis and settlement. It also covers the customizing that configures these structures and processes, plus the integration links to Financials, Controlling, Procurement, Manufacturing, and Sales and Distribution. Because it is delivered as a System-Based Assessment, the exam rewards applied execution over recall, and the scope applies to both SAP S/4HANA Cloud private edition and on-premise deployments at an entry-level, mentored project-participation depth.

The blueprint areas to focus your preparation on.
Modelling and creating the structural backbone of a project — outlining and building work breakdown structures, adding networks and activities, and attaching documents, milestones, and mass-change operations so both investment and logistics projects can be represented in the system.
Planning the moving parts of a project — scheduling dates for WBS elements and networks, planning costs at every level, assigning resources and capacities, planning material requirements, and forecasting revenue so a project is fully quantified before execution begins.
Setting and controlling project budgets, applying budgeting functions and their configuration, and integrating Investment Management with the Project System so capital-intensive investment projects are funded and monitored against approved limits.
Running a live project — posting documents to WBS elements and networks, confirming actual dates and activities through the Cross-Application Time Sheet (CATS), driving procurement and in-house production, handling external activities and claims, and tracking progress and capacity.
Managing the financial side of projects — revenue planning, sales pricing and sales-order integration, milestone billing with down payments, and resource-related billing including cross-company-code scenarios, all tied back to the project structure.
Executing period-end procedures — generating settlement rules, running overhead and results analysis, creating cost forecasts, using progress analysis to evaluate the schedule, and settling projects to their receivers to close the accounting cycle.
Customizing the Project System — WBS and network settings, user fields, standard structures, simulation and project versions, and workflows — and understanding how PS integrates with Financials, Controlling, Procurement, Manufacturing, and Sales and Distribution.
The SAP learning-journey courses this certification draws on.
Exploring Investment Projects in SAP S/4HANA
The investment-project foundation — walks through creating, planning, and executing investment projects in the EPPM Project System, following the end-to-end flow from building project structures and planning costs to budgeting and period-end settlement.
Exploring logistics projects in SAP S/4HANA
Covers the logistics-project lifecycle — creating, planning, and executing logistics projects with cost, material, and revenue planning, then carrying the project through execution, revenue realization, results analysis, and period-end closing.
Carrying out the Basic Configuration of SAP S/4HANA Project System
Teaches the base customizing for the Project System — configuring work breakdown structures, networks, activities, and milestones, working with standard structures and simulation and project versions, and applying those settings in operative projects.
Project Logistics Control in SAP S/4HANA
A deep dive into the logistics processes of the Project System with integration to Procurement, Sales and Distribution, resource management, and Manufacturing — scheduling, capacity leveling, external activities, material procurement, procurement analysis, workflows, and progress tracking, plus the related configuration.
Project Financials Control in SAP S/4HANA
Focuses on the financial processes of the Project System with integration to Procurement, Sales and Distribution, Manufacturing, and Asset Accounting — cost and revenue planning, budgeting, actual cost and revenue postings, billing methods, and period-end closing including results analysis and settlement, alongside the associated customizing.
