Hi All

I have just learned ABAP language and attending the interviews. In one interview they asked me how you implement OSS notes. Can somebody take their time to explain what it is about and how to go about it.

Thanks in advance.

Well OSS notes are provided by SAP, for fixing for example bugs in the system. Often, these bugs are reported by customers after which SAP will change the coding (for example) and provide these fixes via so called Notes. You can require the notes via service.sap.com or you can download them via transaction SNOTE. This is also the place to implement the notes.

But, before doing so, one should always read the notes carefully, since sometimes manual actions are required, and notes always belong to a certain release. With every new release (or these days, enhancement packages), the fixes will no longer be provided by notes, but the changes are incorporated in the new release.
