SAP S/4HANA for Product Compliance: doubts with a Supplier compliance scenario

[Paulo_Pinto]

Dear Community, 

Again, I'm in need of some help to clear some doubts that have been put forward by a customer, regarding supplier's compliance.

I'm implementing SAP S/4HANA for Product Compliance, on-prem, version 2023.

Scenario:

Customer buys the same Product to the same Supplier, to be delivered in two different plants located in two countries with different legal requirements:

• Product A01, Supplier S01, for Plant in Portugal.
• Product A01, Supplier S01, for Plant in Morocco.

Question 1: How can I assure Supplier's compliance, considering that SAP doesn't always provide (all) legal requirements for checks for a certain country and/or a region in a country (in the example above, SAP doesn't provide any of Morocco's legal requirements and for Spain, it just provides nation-wide requirements but not regional ones).

Question 2: In the case that I have all legal requirements for checks, is it enough to assess product marketability in each country and perform just one supplier's compliance check, regarding that I have created adequate compliance purposes (like one for each country)?

Thank you in advance.

@Paulo_Pinto Thanks for the questions, I will do my best to answer and provide documentation. 

The system allows you to create your own compliance requirement versions and package those together in a compliance purpose (for countries and regions). The system has model compliance purposes to help guide you. Additionally, with the Regulatory Content Service, we are continually adding new content. https://help.sap.com/docs/SAP_S4HANA_ON-PREMISE/35751be3d6ee423197492574e016a512/6d1714487b684be9a3b...

For the system checks to proceed, the compliance view for the product also needs to be completed. https://help.sap.com/docs/SAP_S4HANA_ON-PREMISE/35751be3d6ee423197492574e016a512/bb3d236c2f234f799a7...

 Hopefully, others will add their expertise to fill-in the gaps for what I missed. I hope this helps a little.
