• Key Concepts: 
  A modification group is a feature of the SAP Workbench Tools that allows users to make changes to the system without affecting other users. It is a way of grouping together related changes so that they can be applied together. This helps to ensure that all changes are applied correctly and consistently. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use a modification group, users must first create one in the SAP Workbench Tools. This can be done by selecting the “Modification Group” option from the menu. Once created, users can then add changes to the group by selecting the “Add Change” option from the menu. The changes can then be applied to the system by selecting the “Apply Changes” option from the menu. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a modification group, it is important to give it a descriptive name so that it is easy to identify later on. It is also important to ensure that all changes are added to the group before applying them to the system. This will help to ensure that all changes are applied correctly and consistently.
