Release Notes for SAP GUI 7.30 Patchlevel 15

Former Member — Tue, 04 Apr 2017 15:46:48 GMT

Does someone have or know where to find the release notes for the SAP GUI 7.30 Patchlevel 15? Would like to read the changes.

(My company still runs the SAP GUI 7.30 Patchlevel 4. We first want now to go on Patchlevel 15 and then go to 7.40.)

Hi Martin,

SAP says "SAP GUI for Windows 7.30 is no longer supported since 31st of October 2015" and "SAP GUI for Java 7.30 is no longer supported since 31st of March 2015" Check SAP Note 147519 - Maintenance strategy / deadlines for SAP GUI

Maybe it's time to switch SAP GUI 7.40

Hi Martin

In another post, someone asked also about SAP GUI 730 (and Windows 10):

SAP GUI 730 is no longer available for download - support ended 15th of July 2015,

SAP GUI 740 is available for download - however full support ends on the 9th Jan 2018 due to Microsoft ending support for Visual Studio 2012 (will be available in restricted support thereafter).

SAP GUI 750 is expected to be be released on the 10th May 2017 (Calendar Week 19) with reference to SAP Note 147519.

You can also refer to the following linksfor more information on SAP GUI 740:

Thanks Tuncay, thanks Derek,

the terms about support SAP GUI 7.30 are well known. But things in my company just run slower. Nevertheless I would like to read the release notes to SAP GUI 7.30 Patchlevel 15. So if someone is out there who has them, please send my the information.

kind regards

Martin

Hi Martin,

unfortunately there does not seem to be an official Release Note. I think there was only what SAP calls the "Content Info" which is attached to the download area. But anyway you would need all release notes from PL5 to 15. And I would doubt that they will be very helpful in any way.

I would strongly discourage you to proceed like this: You would have to test 7.30 PL 15, 7.40 and 7.50 in a short time, since 7.40 will be unsupported already in less than a year.

So better wait for 7.50 which will appear in May and skip the rest. If you want to go to a release without security issues, you would have to install 7.40 PL12 immediately. I don't get why you intend to try 7.30 PL15.

Cheers, Lutz
