Multiple Client in Single SAP system

[#1]

Hi all,

my client already has one existing client with many company code (the dev is on going). Now due to requirement, they want to have a new separate client (with new company codes) within SAP system. Both the clients needs to be active under the same sap system. Now my questions are-

1. will there any consequence/impact later if i create new client (client 2) using SCC4 during the dev stage? Will ABAB team needs to create it?

2. After new client is created, i can create new company code and assign them to client 2 using OX16. Am i correct?

2. How can i map between the clients? I want to copy all the process settings (like COA,variant etc (copy all the settings from client 1 to client 2). Is it possible?

Thanks in advance for the answer.

Best,

Mira
