A standard SAP system, localized for use in a particular country, so that it covers that country's laws and most common business practices. A country version comprises:

The generic SAP functions

These are the functions used in most or all countries, such as entry of invoices or goods receipts, or sales order processing.

Additional, country-specific functions

These are functions used only in one or two countries, such as the reports for generating the United States' 1099 tax statements or the functions for handling India's excise invoices.

Country template

This consists of master data and Customizing settings required for the system to function in a certain country, such as charts of accounts and tax procedures.

The standard SAP system contains more than 40 country versions. Since all standard country versions are contained within the same system, they can all run concurrently on the same client.

Nonstandard country versions, on the other hand, are delivered as add-ons and may not be mutually compatible.
