Hi,

You may understand by this example.

Client :Tata group,GE

Companies: (Tata Stell,TCS, Tata Cofee, etc,), (GE motors,GE money etc,.)

So, under one client so many co.codes , it's common business knowledge.

You may get huge data, by searching at SDN.

Dear friend,

Thank you. But how is a Client mapped in SAP? When we say 800 is a IDES client, 300 is the production client etc. Is it that same Client? Can you explain with ref to 800, 300 & 100 etc.? In your example can we say TATA group is 100 Client?

It looks your mapping two different things with one single thought

when you say client 100 that is something related to SAP server

when you say TATA that again relates to the scenario which is again different from above concept

You can clarify all your doubts by looking at the technical and fuctional side seperately

SAP Market place is the best place for you

Thanks

Hi,

Client:

Client is the logical division of the server. There will be 3 types of server in any project. in the following example the numbers used might change from project to project.

1) Devolpment server; DN3( 025) and DN3( 125)..............

2) Quality server: QN4(025) , QN4(030)......

3) Production Server.PN1(025) , PN1(030)................

There can be 2 clients within a server. for example DN3( 025) and DN3( 125)are present in the same server. so DN3(025) can be used as Golden Client where you perform only customizing changes or create new programs.

DN3(125) can be used to perform unit testing and business is not involved in testing.

QN4( 025) can be used to perform integration testing by the consultants while QN4( 030) can be used to perform the integration testing by the business users.

PN1( 025) will used by the business for day to day activites while PN1(030) can be used as a backup and it will be a mirror image of the PN1 ( 025).

Company:

An automotive company might have different divisions, so it might represent each division by one company say Heavy Vehicals , LMV , Two Wheelers..... there is no hard rule that you need to represent each division by one company.

Business will always decide in what way a company should be represented.
