NUS is probably a stretch with just the 2 years of SAP implementation experience; they'll want to see you rise in responsibility in the organization. The MSc programs have many students with a couple of years of experience, so yes, they are willing to "overlook" that. What matters most for the MSc programs is your academic ability and dedication.
