SAP Note 204693 - Missing countries in Customizing (table T005)

Component : Country specific Customizing & Functionality (Standard R/3) - Financial Accounting

Summary :
In SAP's Country table (Table T005), non-ISO 3166 countries like Tenerife, part of the Canary Islands, are not included as part of the standard SAP maintenance. SAP maintains only those countries recognized under ISO 3166 in T005, influencing entries like Tenerife, Jersey, and others. These islands are not maintained by SAP because they do not qualify as distinct countries under ISO standards. Customizing T005 allows adjustments specific to customer needs without being overwritten during updates, as outlined in Related Notes 32449, 25073, and 162594, which discuss the handling of Customizing tables and country-specific settings in SAP systems.
