 RAANANA, ISRAEL, 3 April 2007 – Panaya, a provider of on-demand impact analysis for SAP systems, announced today that it will demonstrate its innovative solution for impact analysis at SAPPHIRE ’07 and ASUG ’07, April 22-25 in Atlanta.

 Panaya enables SAP professionals to avoid unexpected side-effects of customizations, preventing unintended damage to business processes.  By automatically identifying the impact of customization changes to SAP systems, Panaya reduces the risk of change, prevents system downtime and enables efficient test scoping.

 Unlike solutions aimed at code developers, Panaya’s Impact Analysis is designed for business analysts: the impact is presented in business language, and ranked by order of business importance. Panaya’s impact analysis is delivered as SaaS (software as a service) so it can be used immediately without installing expensive software.

 Panaya’s unique solution draws on a ground-breaking series of advanced algorithms and a rich knowledge of SAP to provide an automated analysis of SAP customization changes in the customer’s system.

 Yossi Cohen, CEO and founder of Panaya, and a leading expert in the field of program comprehension and flow analysis explains, "There are millions of SAP configuration parameters that control the behavior of over 60,000 transactions. Panaya is the first company to accurately chart this complex map. This comprehensive map enables us to analyze the impact of SAP code and customizations changes with unparalleled precision, and to display results in a format designed for business people with no programming knowledge."

 CIOs, IT Managers, SAP Professionals and consultants are invited to view this technological advancement on-site at the Panaya stand (Booth #1825) and on-line at http://www.panayainc.com.
