Cause

SAP delivers forms for Germany and USA as the standard. Therefore, the form template Sales Quotes (Interactive Form) is available only for the country Germany and USA. However, since in your system is only scoped for another country and since the form templates for the scoped countries only are displayed in the Form Template Maintenance UI, the form template Sales Quotes (Interactive Form) will not be seen.

Resolution

To resolve this issue the customer can scope the either of the countries (Germany/USA). The Sales Quotes (Interactive Form) will then be visible in the Form Template Maintenance UI and you can then create a new variant for the respective country and save it.

If the customer does not want to scope either Germany or the USA but still requires forms (e.g. form template Sales Quotes (Interactive Form)) for a specific country, the customer can place a request via the case. This case then has to be forwarded to the application specific globalization component and they can take it forward.
