Why study this course

This five-day instructor-led course shows how the SAP Solution Manager can be leveraged as an application management platform for End-to-End (E2E) Change Control.

You'll learn how change control management coordinates changes that are introduced into a software landscape so that the changes do not conflict with each other and how to make sure the changes are executed without disrupting ongoing business. This results in improved quality of the software landscape, higher availability of IT solutions, and lower total cost of ownership. Also important, change control management ensures that the changes introduced remain transparent, traceable and are made available for reporting and change analysis.

Becoming adept at change control management requires skill in the efficient use of standardised methods and procedures. In this “how to use” training, SAP imparts best-in-class knowledge of solution operations. The End-to-End Change Control Management course introduces participants to what change control management is and the standard tools used to accomplish it, tools provided by SAP Solution Manager.

This course is based on software release:

  • SAP Solution Manager 7.2 SP05
