Use
In this IMG activity, you make the system settings that define the permitted or relevant countries in the Vendor Master application for maintaining vendors in the SAP Retail Store. The permitted countries entered here are displayed in a dropdown list in the maintenance dialog when the input help for the Country field is called.
In the first substep, you create Customizing or grouping schemas that group certain required countries. You can also determine whether it is possible to enter a region for each country (represented by a country key). In the second substep, you assign the defined grouping schemas to the plants in your company , so that the groupings take effect when you use the application in the plants.
To simplify the assignment to plants, one grouping schema is defined as the standard, which is then called automatically for any plants that have not been assigned a grouping schema.
Requirements
The country keys must already have been created in the system.
Standard settings
Activities
Proceed as follows in this step:
- Define one or more grouping schema(s) depending on whether the requirements of the business process are the same or different in your plants.
Assign the required country keys to each grouping schema. For each country key, you can use a flag to determine whether it is possible to enter a region or not.
- Flag a grouping schema as standard on the overview screen of the grouping schemas.
You must set this flag even if you only use one grouping schema.
- Assign the grouping schemas to your plants.
You do not need to make an entry for plants that are to use the standard grouping schema.
