Prerequisites

You have generated a Project IMG.

Context

SAP distinguishes between:

  • Mandatory activities

  • Optional activities

  • Not required activities.

Each activity can be critical or uncritical. Critical Customizing activities need care because errors here can have major consequences (unlike errors with uncritical Customizing activities). You should check your entries here carefully.

Mandatory activities

Mandatory activities

SAP cannot supply a full set of standard settings for mandatory activities. You must perform these Customizing activities before you can use the SAP System.

Optional activities

Optional activities

Optional activity Customizing settings have SAP defaults, but you should check them, and change them if necessary.

Not required activities

Not required activities

Not required activities have SAP defaults which are valid for the SAP standard system.
