  • Key Concepts: 
    Validity area is a feature of the EHS-ERP EHS Management in ERP component of SAP. It is used to define the scope of a particular EHS management process. This scope can be defined by a variety of criteria, such as plant, material, or customer. The validity area also allows for the assignment of different EHS management processes to different plants or customers. 
    
    How to use it: 
    To use the validity area feature, first define the criteria that will be used to determine the scope of the EHS management process. This can be done by selecting a plant, material, or customer from the list of available options. Once the criteria have been selected, assign the appropriate EHS management process to that criteria. This will ensure that the process is only applied to those entities that meet the criteria. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When defining a validity area, it is important to consider how it will affect other processes in SAP. For example, if a validity area is defined for a particular plant, then any changes made to that plant’s EHS management process will also affect any other plants that are part of that validity area.
