Feature Description

New localization for the UK A new localization is available for the United Kingdom of Great Britain and
Northern Ireland (UK):

● The new localization is available in preparation for the UK’s departure from
the European Union, a process commonly known as Brexit.
Brexit has potential implications for trade, accounting, taxes and reporting.
Future changes due to Brexit will be reflected in the new localization.
● The existing localization United Kingdom / Ireland is renamed UK Interna­
tional / Republic of Ireland.
● Initially, customers based in the UK can choose to create a new company da­
tabase in the new or existing localization.
● SAP will stop supporting legal requirements for the UK in the UK Interna­
tional / Republic of Ireland localization beyond the year 2020, with the exact
date to be confirmed. UK customers will need to move to the new localiza­
tion to continue to stay legally compliant.
● A special utility for SAP Business One 10.0 is planned for release in 2020, to
enable UK customers to easily switch to the new localization. The utility is
planned for release in a patch that is subject to patch planning, to be availa­
ble temporarily for the period of a few patches, before being deactivated.
● The new localization is a one-to-one copy of the existing localization except
for the mandatory activation of Extended Tax Reporting and Making Tax
Digital settings for new companies in the new localization. Activation of
Extended Tax Reporting and Making Tax Digital settings will be a prerequisite
for migration to the new localization.

For more information, see SAP Note 2519116 .
