As any SAP products is not very much user oriented, but its a transactional system. But for large volume operations, it should be more user friendly and easier and more readable interface. SAP in general needs to improve in that area. What is good, you can have a full e2e process overview and traceability of the order - which is one of the reasons we chose to use the product.

• Enables movement of code changes through the landscape seamlessly

• One feature would be to identify if the changes are to some core objects in the system then take an automatic backup or at least give that option.
