When I was new to SAP world, I kept on asking my colleagues what does SPRO stands for. They answered me, ‘It’s a transaction where configurations are accessed’. Well, a little bit correct. But when I rephrased my question “What does S P R O stands for as an acronym?” No one knows about it.

I always have the desire to learn new things fast, and because of my desire to learn SAP the fastest way I can I kept on reading SAP books and materials until I found an answer to my question “What does SPRO as an acronym stands for?”

It’s always my principle “that sharing will help you learn more”. So I’m writing this post to share what I’ve learned. You may share also this info and tips to others through referring this post.

S P R O as an acronym stands for SAP Project Reference Object. When you enter the transaction code SPRO on the command field of your SAP system, you’ll be directed automatically to the Customizing screen. On the customizing screen you’ll see all the customizing/configuration activities.

SPRO is use as short cut (transaction code) to access the IMG customizing screen. In the IMG customizing screen, you can display and access all the configuration activities to set-up SAP system to meet the specific needs and requirments of the client. It’s a single screen that provides a lot of flexibility in accessing the customizing transactions.
