Client in SAP SCC4
What is a SAP Client?
Client is a ‘Customer’. in SAP. We can say that each customer maps to
one client. Within one SAP instance, a number of Clients can be created.
No need to install separate software for each and every customer. It
provides isolation, one client cannot see the data of another client.

As depicted above 100 and 200 clients exist under one roof. We can create
a number of clients in SAP Application (from 000 to 999)
What does client contain?
1. Application Data- Application data is the data that are stored in the
database tables.
2. Customizing Data – Customizing data is data created by customers
when they customize their systems
3. User Master Record- A user master record defines the
authorizations assigned to a user. Basis consultants are responsible
for maintaining the user master record and assigning authorizations.
Advantages of Client concept: –
1. Clients enable SAP SAS providers to install a small number of SAP
Systems, but still cater to a large number of customers.
2. Costs are not only saved by sharing hardware and software but
multiple customers also use the same application solution, including
administration and support.
3. Clients help establish your SAP landscape. For instance, you can
have a client for the development team, a client for a test team and a
production client.
SAP comes with three “standard clients”: –
1. 000
2. 001
3. 066
000 Client: – We can find this client in the system as soon as we install
SAP r/3 software. This is called master client. Client 000 contains a simple
organizational structure of a test company and includes parameters for all
applications, standard settings, and configurations for the control of
standard transactions and examples to be used in many different profiles of
the business applications. It contains client independent data.
001 Client: – This client is a copy of the 000-client including the test
company. This client’s settings are client-independent if it is configured or
customized. People normally use 001 clients to create a new client.
066 Client: – This client is called early watch client. The SAP early watch
alert is a diagnosis service, for solution monitoring of SAP and non-SAP
systems in the SAP Solution Manager. Alert may contain Performance
issue, average response time, current system load, Database
administration, etc.
