Sandbox, at my company, means a client in which you can do anything you want. Config, development, whatever. No Transports to any system. Just a place to play around.

The sand box is just a nickname for that client in the system. The sand box client. Or this can be a totally separated instance. Its just like any other R/3 system, it is just designed to be wide open and allows you to play around with config. Usually it is a good idea to have some data in that client. In my case, we had to create our own data when playing around.

Hi Mohan,

Sandbox – The term used to identify a client that has been built and maintained for use by developers, testers, validators, instructors, or trainees to practice transactions without fear of contaminating system data. Information entered into this system is usually lost the next time it is refreshed or rebuilt.
