Maintain Allowed Company Domains

The application Maintain Allowed Company Domains(opens in new tab) lets super and cloud administrators maintain a list of official Internet domains that represent their company, subsidiaries, or Customer CoE.

This information is used to verify the validity of your S-users’ e-mail addresses. Non-compliant emails are highlighted in User Management, and only e-mail addresses matching the listed domains are accepted when requesting or updating S-user IDs.

Each domain also carries an Originated property (Yes/No) that distinguishes your company's own official domains, used for branding, communications, and purchasing authorizations, from third-party or partner domains. This distinction gives larger organizations with multiple subsidiaries centralized control over which domains are authorized for purchasing, helping prevent unauthorized procurement and ensuring compliance with corporate guidelines.

Every customer must have at least one domain marked as Originated. The system enforces this rule and will prevent actions that would leave a customer without one.

SAP recommends that you regularly update your company's official domains and their Originated status in the application.
