Create New client in SCC4

A SAP client is and independently accountable business unit. Each client is identified by a three-figure number. In the standard system, SAP delivers the following pre-configured clients:

•       000 for administration purposes and as a template for additional clients
•       001: for test purposes and as a template for additional clients.
•       066: for SAP Remote Services

Users and their configurations can only work in their configuration's assigned client. Creating your own clients is one of the first steps in customizing a SAP system.

A client is created in two steps:

1. Make the new client known to the SAP system, and make important basic settings.
