Refreshing your Development System

[Former Member]

This may be in the wrong forum, but I was having a problem classifying this.

<b>Does anyone refresh their R/3 Development system from Production (Data, Repository, and Customization)?</b> In my 9 years of experience, we never did, but at my current company, we are being convinced that the refreshing of the Development system is necessary for 2 reasons: 1)The configuration in the Dev System does not reflect production and is corrupt, 2)The development system does not have adequate test data. We are currently on 4.6C with a Unix/Oracle platform.

Did you have any success with this refresh? We are thinking of doing a database refresh of development to Production.

You certainly mean from production, don't you?

We do this once a year saving the variants of the programs. Apart from that it's a lot of manual work - but it's technically possible.
