Hello kyamada . Retail Content Localization for Thailand is not in current scope. Thailand Retail Localization may have specific need which is not included for SAP S/4HANA Cloud, Public Edition.

You can review the Retail Scope available with documentation https://help.sap.com/docs/SAP_S4HANA_CLOUD/64609d0ecac54654b0837cba34555b82/7c444c57a10f0b22e1000000...

Best Practices for Retail 32 scope Items https://me.sap.com/processnavigator/SolS/EARL_SolS-013/2302?region=DE. You can look under Solutions for Specific Industries - Retail.

Please provide more details on the scope for Retail implementation for Thailand , This will help us understand the scope and potential evaluation to help you with the localization requirement. Currently SAP have vision through central business configuration (CBC) based approach to support cross country localization which is not yet available. There may be specific Localization need in Thailand like Tax requirement, Supplier configuration, terminology so please also provide us, these specific details so we can evaluate further.

You can also review Note 3313681 - SAP Accelerator: SAP S/4HANA Cloud Retail, Fashion and Vertical Business Set Up Instructions which are in early-adoption phase and wish to activate retail solution in the SAP S/4HANA Cloud system.

In addition Configuration Localization Toolkit (CLT) can ONLY be used for countries which are not yet localized at all, see refer note https://launchpad.support.sap.com/#/notes/3107866, and hence it is not possible to use it for the delta localization of individual scope items.

While Localization for Thailand is awaited to be available, In the meantime, one of the option could be to have the project prepared in a starter system based on a different localization, e.g. thailand, and would need to be manually re-done after localization is available (This will help you prepare and understand the processes and master data will be defined and prepared in starter system)

Hope this helps and looking forward to get more specific details on the localization scope and specific needs.

Thanks

Dear har1234

Thank you for quick answer.

May I confirm 2 points ?

#1. About retail using in Thailand, this is early-adoption phase.

We can request to apply retail for coutnry thailand to SAP support into partner tenant environment to verify with customer business and localization functionality.

Is that correct understanding ? If so we will request to apply and start verification the process in partner tenant.

#2. You mentioned "One of the option could be to have the project prepared in a starter system based on a different localization, e.g. thailand, and would need to be manually re-done after localization is available"

We can apply retail in thailand coutry (#1) but after sap completed localization(Future : verified SAP internally and released) for retail function in thailand,

we must re-do localization activities such as configuration etc.

Is that correct understanding ?
