Gold Client Solutions

Powerful and Easy Landscape Data Management

Gold Client Solutions dramatically reduces the amount of time and effort required to replicate data by eliminating the need to copy the entire production database to non-productive environments. Gold Client’s unique, surgical approach allows teams to quickly select and copy subsets of only relevant data from production or non-production sources to non-production targets.


Create smaller, fully functional clients

Client Construct offers a true alternative to the refresh paradigm by creating a fully functional, Production-like client without all the transactional data.


Snap, Slice, Segment copies of SAP data

Data Echo allows SAP users to quickly define and copy exactly what transactional data they want from a source (such as Production) to Non-Production targets.


Point-and-click data scrambling

Data Transform provides extensive and powerful data transformation in a clean and easy-to-use interface, making complex scrambling functionality as easy as point and click.


Export relevant data across SAP systems

Subset Sync brings the ability to keep data subsets in sync across supported
SAP applications, saving significant time and effort.



Empower project team members to quickly and easily select and copy exactly the data they want.

  • Technical Teams can more efficiently handle system and client refresh requests from the business units. Weekend workload for the Basis team can be reduced, as the Gold Client Solutions refresh process is more hands-free. Additionally, change control remains undisturbed as the practice of copying databases can be abolished and storage requirements are eased. The practice of copying the Production database throughout the landscape can be lessened or abolished.

  • Development Teams become empowered with a proven solution to rebuild a stale DEV environment without risking the version history. Relevant test data allows effective Unit Testing before transporting a change. Relevant data in the Development systems also enables the practice of functional unit testing in the DEV system (fewer transports).

  • Functional Analysts yield unlimited power in targeting and isolating specific transactional data with the ability to replicate user-defined subsets of Master and/or Transactional data from PRD (or another source) for use in non-production clients. Gold Client Solutions ensures identical replication of the data, completely preserving document numbers and posting dates so that historical data remains intact (particularly important for Financial Teams).

  • Testing Teams can work with real Production Master Data for all test cases. Safe, real world script testing can be executed on actual production data and improve the reliability of testing results. Plus, smaller Test systems can be created, resulting in faster response times and better performance in the Test environment.

  • Training Teams can build training material with real Production data and users have the luxury of working with data they will actually use in the SAP world. Smaller clients may enable multiple classroom clients within a single Training instance for simultaneous training.

  • Auditors will rest easier with the reduced risk of having critically sensitive data replicated to multiple, less secure environments. Combined with scrambling options, Gold Client Solutions can help an organization improve its compliancy.


Common Data Management Challenges Addressed with Gold Client Solutions

Data Management Challenges

The replication of production data for development, testing, analysis and training is one of the most difficult challenges to overcome in an SAP environment. As the size of clients grow, the functionality of the SAP delivered client copy process becomes increasingly inefficient and technically impractical.

  • Production database is exponentially growing and has become too large and time consuming to copy to QA for testing
  • Data in DEV is too stale to use for unit testing, therefore, changes are oftentimes promoted to QA with little or no testing
  • Testing data quickly becomes exhausted and requires manual creation of new test data
  • Training clients take a long time to build and require a lot of time and planning by the Application and Basis teams
