• Key Concepts: 
  Development configuration is a feature of the SAP BC-CTS Change & Transport System (CTS) that allows developers to create and manage multiple versions of an SAP system. It enables developers to make changes to the system without affecting the production environment, allowing them to test and debug their changes before deploying them. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use development configuration, developers must first create a development system in the CTS. This system will contain all of the necessary components for development, such as source code, objects, and data. Once the development system is created, developers can make changes to it without affecting the production environment. After making changes, developers can then deploy them to the production environment using the CTS. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using development configuration, it is important to keep track of all changes made to the system. This can be done by creating a version control system that tracks all changes made to the system. Additionally, it is important to test any changes made before deploying them to the production environment.
