General Customizing 

Purpose

General Customizing is usually performed when the SAP System is installed.

Process Flow

All settings can be made with the Customizing function. You have the following options:

  1. You make Customizing settings (such as setting the residence time) for specific application components.

    2. Criteria for archiving and deleting data for specific archiving objects are specified in Customizing for that object. Note that such criteria may not be set for all objects. The application component-specific sections of this documentation contain information on how to set the criteria.

  2. You perform Customizing for Basis

Cross-client and client-specific platform-independent file names are maintained Customizing for Basis (see Defining Logical File Names).

You are advised to maintain the platform-independent file names as cross-client.

If you want to transfer files to a storage system using the Content Management Service (CMS), ensure that the correct Content Repository is set up in archiving object-specific Customizing.
