Case Study: Konica Minolta achieves rapid SAP system development — reduces system copy time from 10 to 2 days with Automic's Automated System Copy for SAP

Konica Minolta speeds up system development using ERP and BW system copies from Automic

Konica Minolta Business Solutions Europe, a subsidiary of Konica Minolta Inc., provides IT and document‑process services and runs SAP across multiple European sites. The company needed frequent ERP and BW system copies to develop and test complex localizations, mobile device updates and process changes while keeping production systems available, but creating those copies was time‑consuming, costly and error‑prone.

To address this, Konica Minolta deployed Automic’s Automated System Copy for SAP, using reusable templates and automated post‑copy steps. The automation cut system‑copy time to about two workdays (and can be completed over a weekend), reduced manual effort and errors, made test/QA systems available far more often, lowered costs and accelerated development and delivery of new functionality.
