Constraints

The business scenarios that are presented here serve as examples of how you can use SAP software in your company. The business scenarios are only intended as models and do not necessarily run the way they are described here in your customer-specific system landscape. Ensure to check your requirements ans systems to determine whether these scenarios can be used productively at your site. Furthermore, we recommend that you test these scenarios thoroughly in your test systems to ensure they are complete and free of errors before going live.

This Master Guide primarily discusses the overall technical implementation of OGSD, rather than its subordinate components. This means that additional software dependencies might exist without being mentioned explicitly in this document.
