the challenge
Time slicing is one of the most practical ways to manage the size and storage of the SAP test environment.
Rather than copying everything from production, you define the scope you need and work with something more targeted and manageable.
The challenge is getting the slice right. SAP business processes don't respect calendar windows. A purchase order from one period connects to a goods receipt in the next, which connects to an invoice that might fall entirely outside the date range you specified. Getting the boundaries wrong leads to broken relationships, failed tests, and time spent diagnosing data issues rather than application issues.

how SYNTHESIZED works
Time slicing that follows your business processes
Synthesized doesn't pull data between two dates and call it done. Time slicing is dynamic, driven by the specific business processes and SAP modules you select. The platform understands what needs to come out to make those processes work correctly and pulls the right objects accordingly.
Handles master and transactional data differently
Because they are different. Master data and transactional data have different characteristics and different testing requirements. Synthesized applies the appropriate logic depending on what it's working with, so the dataset it builds reflects how your processes actually run.
Looks outside the boundary, so nothing breaks
Synthesized looks outside the specified period to ensure no business process breaks when the data is used. It's the kind of detail that's easy to miss in a manual process and expensive to discover mid-test-cycle.
Configurable top to bottom
Change the scope. Adjust how master and transactional data are handled. Modify the look-back logic. The defaults are intelligent and work well out of the box, but nothing is fixed if your requirements are different.
Organizations using Synthesized report delivery cycles running up to
70% faster
with test environments provisioned in minutes rather than the days manual refresh approaches require.
Why Synthesized
What Synthesized brings to time slicing
Time slicing is already part of how most SAP teams manage test environments. Synthesized makes it work better. The platform understands SAP business process boundaries, handles master and transactional data appropriately, and looks beyond the specified window to ensure nothing breaks at the edges.
The result is time-sliced environments that are coherent from the start, without the manual repair work that typically follows a slice that cuts through a business process mid-flow.
Storage footprints up to 99% smaller than those of full-database copy approaches.
Provisioning in minutes rather than days. And environments that actually reflect the business processes being tested.

One platform, every system
SAP, Oracle, Salesforce, and custom databases: Synthesized offers consistent, time-accurate data across all of them simultaneously. Cross-system processes like Order-to-Cash and Procure-to-Pay run against data that stays consistent across every system involved.
