The purpose of the Windchill Enterprise Systems Integration SAP Readiness Validation Process is to confirm that a given SAP distribution target system is correctly configured according to documented assumptions and API characterizations. Each of the component systems of Windchill Enterprise Systems Integration, including SAP, may be subject to an extensive degree of customization and patching before a Windchill Enterprise Systems Integration implementation. This poses an implementation risk when introducing Windchill Enterprise Systems Integration into an existing environment and infrastructure. The SAP Readiness Validation Process is a toolset for systems integrators to leverage in the early stages of a Windchill Enterprise Systems Integration deployment to help mitigate this risk.
