Hi ,

dIFFERENCE IS VERY SIMPLE.

Compare both the version i.e ur current and previous version.

If you have applied any notes (Any changes to standard code) in the older version with the new sap code- if SAP haven't provided the code u have added in ur older version -Then you have to import those changes right

for those objects--

For objects with modification assistant : you can import just by a click of button thats says - Adopt modifications

For objects without modification assistant : You have to manuall y add or copy the code-This cannot be done just by click of a button.

Again : if SAP has provided the code or changes you made in old version you can just reset to original - for both objects with and without odifcations - in that case u loose all ur modifcations but SAP have provided them for you in new version.

Let me know what versions your upgrading and from what version

ThanKS
