Dear Siva,

Configuration Management is nothing but tracking and controlling of configuration and customization in Implementation as well as support project.

Comprehensive SAP configuration management all across the SAP landscape is meant to ensure overall integrity of the objects involved in SAP development, including ABAP as well as non-ABAP objects:

The use of well-defined standardized naming conventions clearly reveals to which organizations, areas and projects the objects belong.For example , all the customized programs should be named starting with Z_ .

All changes to objects, including individual customizing settings, are documented. At any time, it is obvious who is – and at which times – the owner of settings, who has made changes and for which reason. This allows the changes to be tracked afterwards, which is an equivalent to versioning.
The documentation also includes the information as to who and what and who depends from a defined customizing setting.
