For the standard company code 0001, the global parameters for Germany have already been set,

such as, for

example, the payment methods, the tax calculation procedures and the chart of accounts most frequently used in
Germany.
If you need a company code for a different country and the corresponding legal requirements, you must first of all run
the country installation program in client 001. The country which you need is then entered as the country of company
code 0001 and all the country-specific parameters associated with it are also converted to this country. Read the
chapter "Set up client" within your Customizing project.
Activities
