OSS note question

Former Member — Wed, 13 Mar 2013 09:07:05 GMT

Goodmorning,

Is it allowed (best practice) to implemented notes into your SAP system which are packed two or more SP higher then your current system.

So for example when a software component is at SP4 and you want to implement notes from SP6 or higher.

best regards,

Atilla

Neither SNOTE nor Solution manager tool will let you do such operations, system will check for Prerequisites and only implement corrections of your system level. (Else this is a bug...)

If you are asking about "manually" implementing corrections not of your system level (lower or higher level) that would be a modification of the standard, at your own risk, you must yourself insure every Prerequisite and perform heavy load of test, etc. -> Note 7 - Error caused by customer modification/development.

Hi Atilla,

Let me see if I understood your scenario.Your application component level is SP4 but OSS note corrections were delivered in SP6? If yes and your application version is in valid version range (it's another thing and described in different session of note body), there's no problem and you can go ahead implementing it. To illustrate it follows an example:

My component version (in case it's SAP_APPL) is 604 and SP level is 7:

In note it says it's applicable to component version 604 (then I'm okay so far):

And corrections were delivered within SP12 (I'm SP7 but it's not a problem):

In other words it means if you implement SP12 (and not only this single note) all correction contained in this note will also be implemented (once it's already there in SP12).

If note is automatically implementable you can confirm if it can be (or not) implemented through SNOTE itself:

Hope it helped.
