Beginner guide

What is SAP BASIS?

SAP BASIS is to SAP what system administration is to an IT environment. BASIS administrators install the systems, manage users and authorisations, move changes between development, test and production, monitor performance and handle backups and upgrades.

Every SAP customer needs BASIS skills, whether in-house or through a service provider. In S/4HANA the work also includes the HANA database, Fiori front-end servers and connections to cloud services.

Key concepts

The main building blocks of BASIS

In practice

How a change reaches production in SAP

  1. A developer or consultant makes a change in the development system and records it in a transport request.
  2. The request is released and imported into the quality system by the BASIS team.
  3. After testing, the same request is approved and imported into production.
  4. BASIS monitors the import and the system health afterwards.
  5. If something fails, logs and dumps guide the diagnosis.
