When was the last System Refresh done in an SAP system?
To quickly check when your DEV/QA system was refreshed from a production box perform the following steps:
- Execute the transaction SCCL
- Fill in the Source Clinet filed [ie: 001]
- Select <Goto> <Log display> from the main menu
You should see a screen with a list of dates of when the system was last refreshed.
Other useful transactions:
SCC9: client copy – copy a client
SCC8: client export
SCC7: client import
SCC1: copy as per transport request

Hi, what is the use of refreshing a SAP System ?
I’m student and working for part time in a firm as an end-user to learn SAP.
When i hit SCCL transaction i receive “Target client is productive and protected against clicent copy” error..So i can not check our system.
Best~
Hi,
In an ideal scenario you want to have your DEV/QA environment identical to your production system.
One reason to refresh your DEV/QA environment form your production box is to make sure you have an up to date snapshot of your live data.
The closer your DEV/QA is to PROD boxes the more accurate you can be with your testing and future development assumptions.
In your scenario: your production box should never be refreshed because it’s live data.
ok, got it for the purpose of refreshing system. thanks for clear response. we currently both have test and live system. i was able to execute SSCL transaction in our test system.
Nice blog.
Cheers
