Creating and migrating Transports are routine activities as IT organizations enhance, and provide ongoing maintenance in support of mission critical SAP investments. However, in today's current scenario, most organizations approach transports in a manual way, a method that carries its own inherent risks and shortcomings.

Organizations handling transports manually may lack visibility into project status; experience developer inefficiency; may not be able to easily identify what objects were changed, when and why; and be unable to produce an audit trail of transports and related activities for an IT auditor. In today’s regulatory climate, organizations must exercise caution and due diligence, implement effective and automated processes around key IT activities and have controls in place to ensure they are followed.

MKS Integrity is integrated with the SAP Transport Management System (TMS). It is a powerful and flexible process and workflow management solution for controlling the creation and migration of transports across your SAP landscape. MKS Integrity ensures the correct type of transport is created in the correct client then provides a simple approval process for subsequent migration of the transports. A complete audit trail of all approvals and activities is maintained reducing risk to the business.

SAP changes are done for a reason. MKS Integrity, implemented with the ITIL solution template provides complete tracability from the initial end user request through an incident to the import of the SAP Transport into production. Every change to your SAP landscape will be carefully, thoroughly and securely managed using MKS. Workflows can be easily configured and customized, the result is a process that is securely governed by MKS Integrity’s role based permissions capability and approval cycles, which controls the assignment of work, status of work, and promotion through the entire lifecycle.
