What Is the Preconfigured Client?
The Preconfigured Client (PCC) consists of a set of transport files, documentation, and an installation guide. It gives a significant head start on R/3 configuration by providing a tested, U.S.-oriented environment in which many business processes run “out of the box.” The PCC is used as the starting point for configuration instead of a copy of client 000, and also makes an excellent sandbox client where different business scenarios can be configured and tested from its solid base.
For example, immediately after installing, you can run complete business scenarios. A complete purchasing process may involve the following steps:
1. Create material and vendor
2. Create purchase order
3. Receive goods
4. Receive invoice
5. Make payment
The testing tools that come with the PCC guarantee that many complete processes run “out of the box” in a just-installed PCC. A comprehensive set of CATT scripts not only ensures the quality of the configuration but also can help familiarize users with the supported business processes. PCC CATTs are described in a separate document, the Preconfigured Client CATT Procedures.
Many processes in the following modules have been configured to run in a just-installed PCC:
Financial Accounting (FI)
Asset Management (AM)
Investment Management (IM)
Controlling (CO)
Projects System (PS)
Materials Management (MM)
Sales and Distribution (SD)
Production Planning - product costing (PP)
