Where to customize the jurisdiction countries for MSDS

[Former Member]

Hi all,

Do you know where to change the countries which can be define in customizing transaction:

EH&S > Product Safety > Report Shipping > Basic Settings for Shipping SD Documents > Specify Condition Schemas for Report Generation Variant Selection > Condition Schema: Edit Table 4: countries which can be selected (jurisdiction countries for MSDS).

It is not the same as Validity Areas.

Thank you in advance.

Kind regards,

Hello Roy

the "country" is part of the general set up of a SAP system. Take a look in Customizing General setting etc. You will find there (if you drill down a customizing activity there the countries are defined (General Settings => Set Countries => Define Countries in R/3 Systems). These countries are as well basis of the validity area. They are used in the whole SAP system (e.g. definition of the country of a partner etc.). Therefore as the list of countries is critical there is in most companies at least one "stakeholder" who is responsible for the content of this customizing.

I assume you would like to prepare customizing regarding MSDS shipment? If so: make a mapping regarding any "country" which is there to a generation variant. E.g. here you will find a list of "legal" countries:
