Transaction Code SCC4
This is a cross-client transaction; any changes made will
affect all the clients in the SAP system. This is a controlled transaction
which is to be authorized userid only.
A client has various characteristics that are maintained
considering for which purpose the client is used.
In the picture above, the client is 200 means the
transactions that are carried in this client is only accessible for users
assigned to this client. Logical system is a value which has dependency in the
transactions as it gets tagged with the transaction data, if any change is done
then the relevant data will be lost even though exists in the system. Hence
making a change of the logical system once defined is not to be done in
Production system. Client role defines for which purpose the client is used
for, it can be
SAP reference client, Test client, Customizing client, Demo
client or Production client. In Development the client 150 is set as
Customizing client, client 160 set as Test client and client 170 as test
client.

carried out by authorized consultant, it can client dependent objects or client
independent objects. Does the client is protected or not protected for over
writing. Permission on CATT and eCATT functionality is permitted or no.
The checkbox at the bottom can be set according to the
requirements. To protect from changes during client copy and performing a
upgrade of software.
