Check Customizing

[Former Member]

Hello Community,

in our company the SAP System has to be customized (Initial Customization) for various sub-groups. During this process, the following things have to be done (selection): define sales organisation, define distribution channel, define division, define shipping...etc.

Due to the fact that a error is most likely when doing these bunch of operations, I wanted to write a report in abap to check (consistency, logic) the customizing. Since, i am new to abap and the SAP world I am not sure, whether abap is the right choice and if it is possible to write such a report. Is there possibly already something integrated in SAP? How do you check / validate the customization settings ?

Replys are highly appriciated! Thanks!

For most of the customization SAP provides the "Check" Functionality.

I.e. For Sales Organization: Enterprise Structure > Definition > Sales Organization > Define Copy, delete, check sales organization > Copy, delete, check sales organization.

From the menu Organizational Object > Check Org. object.

I would suggest to figure out, which objects you want to check and find out if SAP has provided that functionality or not.

I agree with the previous response as well; there are many hooks like that to run checks but they don't cover everything. That's why you hire skiiled configurators or send folks to training for it. Of course, the best way to check that something is properly configured is to establish a good procedure for testing it. Is your project plan going to incorporate multiple testing phases?

I would not recommend that someone who is not familiar with ABAP and especially isn't familiar with SAP modules or the IMG attempt something like this.
