How to check and download all BC (Business Configuration) sets

Business Configuration Set (BC Set)

In the R/3 system from SAP, a Business Configuration Set (BC Set) is a management tool that allows the user to record, save, and share customized settings. By creating a BC Set, the user is provided with a snapshot of the customized settings of a system that can be used later on as a template; SAP also provides pre-packaged BC sets designed for specific industries and applications. BC Sets are useful because they provide continuity and prevent project team members from overwriting each other’s settings.

By using 2 T-CODES we can perform all BC set activities.

• SCPR3 – Display and Maintain BC sets
• SCPR20 – Activation of BC sets

• • BC sets can also be used in group roll-outs where the customization settings can be compiled for pilot and passed on in a structured way to other roll-out locations.
  • SAP also provides Pre-packaged BC sets for selected industry sectors.
  • When BC Set is created, values from original customizing tables are copied into BC Set.
  • When you activate this BC set in other system the values stored in BC sets are copied to corresponding customizing tables of the system.

Types of BC sets:

1. Simple BC Set – BC set contains data from customizing table rows and columns. There is no limitation on the size of BC set. BC set can contain data.
2. Hierarchical BC Set – Hierarchical BC Set consists of other BC sets which can be simple BC sets or Hierarchical BC sets. They represent Hierarchy.
