HI,

In addition to Mr. Stefan check Note 24853 - CC-INFO: Client copy, functionality

It depends upon the profile you use for the client copy.

if you use SAP_ALL

All data is deleted from target client and source client data is copied.

and therefore you shall see the profiles and understand them .

SAP_ALL All Client-Specific Data w/o Change Documents

SAP_APPL Customizing and Application Data w/o Change Docs

SAP_APPX SAP_APPL w/o Authorization Profiles and Roles

SAP_CUST Customizing

SAP_CUSV Customizing and User Variants

SAP_CUSX Customizing w/o Authorization Profiles and Roles

SAP_PROF Only Authorization Profiles and Roles

SAP_UCSV Customizing, User Master Records and User Variants

SAP_UCUS Customizing and User Master Records

SAP_UONL User Without Authorization Profiles and Roles

SAP_USER User Master Records and Authorization Profiles

Hope it helps.

Thanks

Amit

Hi,

> The customizing and application data is deleted in the target client before copying for all profiles except SAP_USER. This is technically unavoidable.
