To ensure that SAP Business One operates according to your company's specifications, use the system initialization functions to customize all the required areas and define the default settings.

Customizing includes, for example, defining:

  • How business transactions are to be processed in the system

  • Various default settings

  • Authorizations

  • Print preferences

Caution Caution

You must perform a separate system initialization for each company defined in SAP Business One. Although SAP Business One functions can operate without the definition of certain settings, SAP highly recommends you take the time to perform system initialization to establish a more efficient use of the application.

End of the caution.

Prerequisites

You have created a test company to test your configuration.

Do NOT start system initialization for the demo company that is provided with the installation.
