Function documentation Customizing Projects  Locate the document in its SAP Library structure

SAP Systems are implemented by several company project teams which each perform one or more customizing projects.

There are two kinds of customizing projects:

The project administrator determines the project scope by selecting the countries and functions which he or she wants to include in the customizing project, from the SAP reference IMG. The result of this selection is the project IMG, a subset of the SAP Reference IMG.

The project administrator creates release-specific project views of one or more Customizing projects, in the project management. He or she reduces the scope of a customizing project by selecting attributes, and specifies whether the customizing project contains IMG activities for new or changed functions.

Note

You can create any number of Project IMGs and any number of views for each Project IMG. Customizing projects should not overlap. If there are minor overlaps, follow the project transport rules.

See transport control by project.

The graphic below shows how projects are generated from the SAP Reference IMG.

This graphic is explained in the accompanying text

 

The Customizing project provides project-specific project documentation, status information and views of the SAP Reference IMG.

Project team members can be assigned to Customizing projects or views. The project administrator assigns responsibilities in this way, when the projects are created. Projects assigned appear in the customizing work list of the project team members assigned.
