Hello ABAP People,
I've been implementing SAP solutions since 1996 and this is the first question I have posted to SCN.
I'm hoping for a good experience! Let me know if you think this question fits into a better area and which one if possible?
Recently I met with the Basis Team and we were trying to determine why we have seperate development clients for config, ABAP, & security.
Here is an exmaple of our development landscape
DEV 010 - Config only
DEV 020 - ABAP only + Unit Testing (config is SCC1 here)
DEV 030 - Security Development (config is SCC1 here)
What I would like to understand is the pros & cons to organizing the development landscape in this manner.
If we were to combine these 3 clients into 1 what problems may that cause?
I've seen replies to similar posts but never the reasons why this strategy is a good or bad.
Please do not respond to this post stating "This is an SAP best practice".
I would like to understand why.....
Also, what is the purpose of a golden config client?
Thanks in advance for anything that you can share with me on this subject.
Regards,
Ron Mattson
