We recommend downloading the SAP Solution Manager 7.2 content via the SAP Solution Manager 7.2 Download
Basket in the SAP Best Practices Explorer (available if you have an S user) by selecting the
solution package.

2.4 Active Business Functions Required

Functionality in this solution package requires certain business functions to be active in the SAP landscape.These business
functions need to be activated:

After installing SAP S/4HANA ON-PREMISE, but before activating the SAP Best Practices for SAP S/4HANA(on premise)
package, activate the following SAP Business Functions.

Caution
● The activation of Enterprise Extensions, Business Functions, and Business Function Sets changes your system and
cannot be rolled back. For more information about the impact, check the documentation ofthe related extension or
business function.
● Activate all Business Functions as outlined in the table below before you create the client in which the SAP Best
Practices for SAP S/4HANA solution shall be activated.
● Do not activate additional Enterprise Extensions or Business Functions (in addition to the required BF mentioned
for SAP BP deployment) before content activation. This can result in errors during activation of SAP Best Practices
content. Additional Business Functions can be activated any time aftercontent activation, but this requires
regression testing of the business processes as it is usually part of any system maintenance activities.
