What is the difference between customization and configuration?

Answer Posted / pavittar sharma

Configuration: We configure the system to meet the needs of
our business by using existing data. Configuration uses the
inherent flexibility of the enterprise software to add
fields, change field names, modify drop-down lists or add
buttons

Customization: We customize or adapt the system accourding
to our business requirements, which is a process of mapping
SAP to our business processes. It is basically mapping of
business scenerios in system.We do all the customization in
IMG(Implementaion guide).
