I don't think there is disadvantage when we have multiple clients for development system

DEV SAP system may have multiple clients..

Main pupose : Changes can be client dependent or client independent

Client-independent effects some clients.

Client-dependent effects all clients.

Let me say one example : Dev system has two clients

100 - Here we can write the code

200 - Testing will be here ( customizing will done here)

Hi Varma Pericherla,

you can configure a client without transport requests for customizing. This will allow to test and try freely in one client before doing the (transported) customizing in the other client.

Or you can set up one client for training purposes only.

But - frankly spoken - the more clients you have the more confusion is created.

Hi

We have multiple clients in DEV server

because the Functional consultants may need a explicit server to develop their customizing request for their customization changes

and the DEVELOPER may also need a server in which he wants to do all changes and to raise a WORKBENCH request

IN some client data will be there and in some sand box clients data may not be there

so you may need some client where data is there to check your developed object

so for the above mentioned various reasons you may required different clients in DEV client
