Summary :
SAP recommends periodically refreshing QA systems from PRD to ensure realistic testing conditions. Post-system copy, performing a logical system name change using transaction BDLS (as detailed in note 121163) is crucial for consistency across dependent objects. Failure to effectively rename can lead to difficulties like errors in RSA1 access, inability to activate source systems, and invisibility of source system dependent objects. Common pitfalls post-copy, including duplicate datamart LOGSYS entry issues, are often due to BDLS failures, necessitating careful management of source system prefixes and BDLS error preventions as outlined.
