Tests are already worthwhile for the introduction of SAP solutions in the company and also for release upgrades and migration projects, the import of patches, customizing, modifications and in-house developments. A three-tier SAP landscape typically consists of development, test and production systems. In addition, there are often training systems.
Landscape copies refer to the update of not only one but a whole group of systems. This is the case when dependencies of the source systems are also to be mapped in the target environments. Similar to the simple system copy, the landscape copy also offers potential for automation, but this cannot be implemented by every tool on the market.

Tools such as "Shortcut for SAP Systems" supplement missing functions in the area of SAP system copy.
These tables are saved and later imported back into the newly built system: TBDLST, TBDLS, RFCDES, RFCATTRIB, RFCCMC, RFCDOC, RFCSYSACL, RFCTRUST, EDP12, EDP13, EDP21, EDIPOI, EDIPO2, EDIPOA, EDIPOD, EDIPOF, EDIPOI, EDIPORT, EDIPOX, EDIPOXH, TBD00T, TBD05, TBD06, TBDBR, TBDBRF, RFCATTRIB, RFCCMC, RFCDES, RFCDOC, RFCSYSACL, RFCTRUST.
As a result, business processes can be made more agile, risks can be reduced, and the workload of IT administrators can be reduced.
