hi Garima
Thank you for your kind words. Please note that I plan to enhance this based on availability I have as there is a lot that is miising in this as information.
you will see this being updated. Next steps is to update the COA mappings in the same section.
To answer your questions
yes what you have listed are all the elements which are part of SAP enterprise structure. I don't think in logistics and finance additional SAP structures are required to be added as the design is quite strong and meets all requirements.
SAP generally would release notes if there are any such elements additionally required. With public cloud introduction SAP is making the delta elements as a customer specific configurations hence I don't see any additional need to modify or add any elements in the SAP Enterprise Structure.
Thank you
