If you are about to work with Magento EE 1.13+ and have the database dump on your hands, you might want to check & change the trigger DEFINER statements of it. It will save you from quite a few annoying errors (such as "The configuration could not be saved" in Magento admin). First you need to find out the trigger DEFINER's user and host. We need to know these two in order to successfully replace them with new user and host values. I usually do it via cli with this simple grep command:

grep DEFINER db-dump.sql
