SAP is an Enterprise Resource Planning software, similar systems are Oracle, PeopleSoft, Lawson. If a job description asks for SAP experience and you have experience with another ERP but not SAP, then emphasize what you do have, they will recognize the value of that as being much higher than someone who has no similar experience.

SAP stands for Standard Accounting Practices. These are codes usually set by a national institute of accountants to be followed by all business units, in particular by the corporations, enforced by the stock exchanges for listing of stocks. The aim is to ensure that the published results by different corporations/business units are reasonably comparable and informative, in addition to being absolutely in conformity with the basic principles of accounting. The auditors are specifically required to comment compliance vis-a-vis these codes. The beneficiary is the entire community of stakeholders.
