Introduction
1 Introduction
1.1 Purpose of this document
This document explains how to carry out country localization by leveraging SAP Best Practices Baseline contents (Germany) (http://service.sap.com/s4op) for SAP S/4 HANA on-premise edition 1511 feature package stack 01.
Note that the activities recorded in this document represent the status as of March 2016. For the most up-to-date SAP S/4HANA, on-premise edition information, please refer to the standard documentation from (http://help.sap.com/s4hana_op_1511_001).
Before you decide to add your country localization on top of SAP Best Practices Baseline contents, you should have checked the SAP Note 2244659 for the installation of SAP Best Practices S/4HANA on premise edition (Germany).
1.2 Scope of this document
The SAP Best Practices for SAP S/4HANA are tailored specifically to accelerate and simplify the adoption of SAP S/4HANA, on-premise edition for faster time to value, by providing pre-configured content for core business processes with role-specific, responsive, and simple user experience. However, as with all new products, it will take time for S/4 HANA to be localized for many other countries.
This document intents to enable customers or partners on how to carry out the customizing activities in the transaction SPRO (implementation guide IMG) for the special legislation and business practice.
This document provides you with the following information about localizations: 1. New features of SAP Best Practices Baseline solution
2. Scope coverage of SAP Best Practices Baseline solution 3. Localization objects per Business Priority

You can find the pre-defined business processes at Scope coverage of SAP Best Practices Baseline contents.
2.1 SAP Best Practices new content architecture
SAP Best Practices methodology brings together: Business view (Content Modeling) and Implementation view (consistent content implementation).
A solution consists of a specific number of scope items (business view) and a scope item contains a certain number of building blocks (implementation view).
The picture below indicates the content structure,
1. Scope item is the pre-defined business process, which contains a certain number of building blocks;
2. Building Block is a set of customizing and master data steps for the respective piece of business content;
3. Activity is the smallest logical unit in the SAP Best Practices architecture, which includes a specific customizing and master data steps.

CUSTOMER 17 In order to support the Global Template concept S/4 HANA Best Practices Global Template, the following two building block types are used:
1. Central Building Blocks are required to be activated only once. These building blocks contain all the central settings as well as some country specific local content that have no dependence on the localized organizational units
2. Country Specific Building Blocks are required to be activated for the specific country selected. These building blocks contain only the local content that have dependence on the localized organizational units.

2.2 S/4 HANA Best Practices Global Template
SAP Best Practices Baseline solution provides a Global Template to easily handle the multi-national company's headquarter and subsidiary business requirements. It defines business processes and related master data, which can be used as a basis across countries and industries
o Flexibility: To add industry and/or country specific extensions
o Extensibility: easy to enhance for partners, countries and industries that SAP does not cover
o Simplification of master data management o Include integration scenarios
o Simplify testing
o Optimize business processes to utilize latest technology o Possible one global layer for all delivery options
2.2.1 Multi-countries in one client
With SAP S/4 HANA, the ERP scope for multiple countries is implemented in one client for the first time.
If a company has several legal entities (several company codes) in one or several countries its solution will run in only one client. This functionality is available for the complete enterprise structure of the company.
This results in the following key features:
1. Country based preconfigured content is activated in one client 2. Country specific settings are available in one client for all countries 3. Period end closing processes on local level fully supported
4. It allows country related regulatory reporting and overall processes on company level (For example, controlling)
2.2.2
Parallel accounting for multi-national company
With SAP S/4 HANA, customers can use parallel ledger too manage General Ledger Accounting in accordance with several accounting principles simultaneously, for example with a local accounting principle and the accounting principle of a corporate group;
o manage Asset Accounting in accordance with several accounting principles simultaneously, for example with a local accounting principle and the accounting principle of a corporate group. This happens analog to General Ledger

New Features of SAP Best Practices Baseline
CUSTOMER 19 Parallel ledger in Global Template was designed to address the multi-national company reporting requirements. These companies need to report in most cases under IFRS, but still have specific local reporting requirements, according with local GAAP.
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) are used by 135 countries, therefore SAP Best Practices Baseline solution delivers a preconfigured content with two ledgers: - Leading Ledger for IFRS (0L)
- Local Ledger for local GAAP (2L).
Localized content is maintained in order to cover local requirements.
Related to local ledger, common Global Template covers pre configuration for Local GAAP.
All the company codes use the Operational Chart of Accounts (YCOA). This YCOA is mapped to the Alternative Chart of Accounts (YIKR) if it is needed for local reporting purposes (for example, Germany).
Different accounting principles, valuation methods and depreciation areas were designed to cover all reporting requirements (Local and IFRS).
To accommodate the Global Template, the following configuration was added: o Balance sheet and P/L statement by function based on CoA YCOA
o Balance sheet and P/L statement by nature based on CoA YIKR (for Germany) o New set of financial statement versions designed for IFRS
Other impact of parallel ledger design concept is related to Inventory valuation. At this time, only inventory valuation based on first in – first out method (FIFO) is taken into consideration.
