Configuration or Customization

y The software we use this semester is configured, for a company called IDESbut it is not customized (= vanilla SAP).

y Configuration specifies company names, organizational structure, chart ofaccounts, etc., which clearly differ from organization to organization.

y Configuration is achieved by entering values in tables using theImplementation Guide (IMG) part of R/3.

y Changing processes in organizations is hard

y Customizing the software is hard (programming) and causes problems forsoftware upgrades. (Recall, customizing is heavy-duty change, not just

configuration.)

y Knowing what processes are best for your organization is hard (the bestplaced person to guide this is the process owner)

y Over time, both business needs and the software evolve. The goal is on-going fit.
