Main Business Scenario
Application key users are not satisfied with the quality of data
in their test system, because the data is refreshed only once a
year by a copy of the production system.
Developers report that they need a high number of transports
to the quality assurance system as they do not have
appropriate data available for testing in the development
system.
As an SAP system administrator, you need to explain about
the high efforts involved in performing a system copy and also
justify the hardware costs for the test systems. You are
looking for a way to refresh the data in your non-production
systems without the need to perform a full system copy.
 Current Challenges for a TDMS Business case….
• Larger and quickly growing SAP systems? • The challenge to scramble sensitive data?
• The need to test and validate in-house • Multiple parallel IT projects?
