Setup tasks represent the work necessary to set up an offering and the business processes and activities that the offering represents to make them ready for transaction processing. Perform these tasks to enter setup data when you implement an offering.
Tasks representing setup requirements of the offerings and the functional areas are grouped into task lists and are organized in a hierarchy. For example, all setup tasks of an offering are grouped into a task list which includes subtask lists that represent setup of functional areas within the offering. This helps you gain visibility into setup data that are related to each other, helping you to manage setup.
