We live in dynamic times with companies buying and selling subsidiaries frequently. For companies that are already on SAP it becomes a project then to add acquisitions. I’ve developed a spreadsheet that includes all the configuration changes that are required for adding a new company code to your structure. Of course this does not include any customization but these are the standard configuration items to take under consideration when adding a new company code.
I have the process divided into six sections:
As you move through the process some items may have already been set-up in a previous step but it’s good to check and make sure its been set up properly.
Enterprise Structure
Again these are the key standard set ups when you are configuring a new company code. Once you have all this completed in the Enterprise Structure grouping in IMG you have the shell to continue completing the rest of the configuration. In my next write up I’ll discuss and list configuration required in just the FI module.
