Creating new client in sap

In SAP, a Client is a self-contained unit within the SAP system that:

- Isolates data and configuration settings from other clients.

- Allows different organizational units or departments to operate independently within the same SAP system.

- Is identified by a unique client number and maintains its own data privacy and security settings.

There are 3 clients in SAP system which are released between timeframe 1992 to 2014.

1)Master Client (000)

2)Support Client (001)

3)Early Watch Client(066)

login to master client 000 via SAPLOGONGUI

Enter Tcode SSC4, this will open client overview

 Click on Display->change Icon above red arrow  

 

Here you can do client administration like creating,editing,deleting clients.

Click on new entries to create a new client.

Here you can enter client details like client number (002-999) client name, city, currency, client role etc.

 Client role – Defines for which purpose the client is used for, it can be SAP reference client, Test client, Customizing client, Demo client or Production client.

Here I'm creating a development client with name DEV_Arbaz, no 500, city Hyderabad, currency INR,

and client role as Customizing. 

After entering data save the client clicking on Save icon above red arrow.

You can see our new client DEV_Arbaz with number 500 is created.

In SAP there is parameter login/no_automatic_user_sapstar whose default value is 1. If the value is set to 1, automatic login of sap* into SAP System won't be allowed.

Set the value of parameter login/no_automatic_user_sapstar to 0 in both the default profile and the instance profile and restart the instance. So, automatic  login of sap* with default password will be enabled.

After creating any new client we have to login with SAP*/DDIC with password "pass".
