Highlights of Client Sync:

• Copy certain data sets with pre-defined profile options for easier and faster execution:
  • Customizing,
  • User Administration,
  • Master Data,
  • InfoObjects only,
  • Transactional Data,
  • InfoCubes and related data,
  • Only HCM Data,
  • Full Copy.
• Calculate approximate disk space required for a new client, before creating it.
• Exclude certain data sets for space saving or security.
• See what you will copy with a visual representation on screen.
• Receive notifications via SAP messages, SMS, or email to monitor the progress and status of your Syncs.

With Client Sync™ you can:

Save disk space with data selection

Client Sync lets you select and copy just the relevant subsets of data, reducing disk space needed for the target, and saving costs. For example, you can select transactional data for a certain period only, and for a specific company code only. You can include all master data in the copy, but it’s easy to exclude certain data sets to reduce the footprint of the client.

Include dependent data

You may wish to include valuable dependent data that does not reside in the specified period. For example, for transactions that end within the period specified but originate before the start date, you can copy the relevant records from outside the period too. Having complete document flows means the client is fully functional.

Reduce copy time and downtime

Creating a reduced client is faster than a full system copy. Downtime is eliminated, so Production interruptions are minimal. No freezes of the DEV system are needed while test data is refreshed.

Reduce Basis workload with smarter Syncs

Your Basis team can build clients quickly with minimal effort, and receive progress reports via SMS or email. They are freed from many of the ancillary tasks related to a system copy, such as BDLS re-importing workbench transports. Other benefits are less downtime and fewer transports to process, therefore developers and support teams can test more efficiently.
