This demo script is based on the ByD Reference System for the Almika model company. There are several country versions
of the Almika ByD implementation available. The content is similar but deviates especially with respect to language support,
names and object descriptions. Sample data used in this demo script relates to the US country version – for other country
versions different data samples might be relevant.
A prerequisite for being able to fully understand this demo script and run the demo, is a sound system knowledge on SAP
Business ByDesign. General assumption is that you are familiar with the Learning Center content available in your ByD
system at: Home Self-Services – Learning Center.

Although the script has been tested carefully you might nevertheless encounter different system behavior when running a
demo in an actual Almika demo tenant.
