Customizing

Purpose

This process describes how you customize SAP R/3 for use in conjunction with Country Version Brazil.

Process Flow

You need to perform the following steps in the order in which they appear:

Run the Country Installation Program for Brazil.

When you run this program, it automatically activates a number of test cases that make additional Customizing settings for Brazil that are not delivered in client 000 (such as billing document types). There are two things to note here:

For these test cases to work properly in conjunction with the Country Installation Program, you must ensure that company code 0001 in the production preparation client still contains the standard Customizing settings; you must not have changed any settings.
The text cases install the texts in only one language – the one you are logged on in when you run the Country Installation Program. If you prefer to have Portuguese texts, you need to log on in Portuguese when you run the Country Installation Program.

Work through Customizing activities in the Implementation Guide (IMG). The following areas are relevant to Brazil:

Nota Fiscal
