SAP Configuration documents

These configuration documents are reference write-ups of how common SAP configuration is done, useful as learning material and as templates for your own documentation.

Quick answer

The SAP configuration documents are step-by-step write-ups of common customising tasks with the SPRO paths and settings, notes on dependencies and integration points, and a template style for documenting your own work. Use them to learn how a piece of configuration is done, then adapt to your requirements and test in DEV and QAS; they are guides, not exact recipes.

Key takeaways
  • Watch out: a configuration document describes somebody else organisational structure, so the values are not yours.

What you get

  • Step-by-step configuration write-ups for common tasks.
  • The IMG (SPRO) paths and settings involved.
  • Notes on dependencies and integration points.
  • A template style for documenting your own config.

How to use them

Use configuration documents to learn how a piece of customizing is done, and as a model for documenting your own. Always adapt to your specific requirements and test in DEV/QAS, configuration is environment-specific, so treat these as guides, not exact recipes.

Common pitfalls

  • Using in production without testing.
  • Not adapting to your environment.
  • Treating them as finished.
