SNOTE note implementation - Precedence of the validity of manual modifications.

[jczettler]

Greetings Everyone,

I encountered an interesting condition system during the implementation of a note in the manual activities.

The note is as follows: 3294279 - FPZW/FPRW: Error during value adjustment of tax refund document.

In the manual activities, there is a "VALID FOR" and a "NOT VALID FOR" section. What happens if both sections contain valid entries for the affected system?

In such cases, which condition takes precedence? The "VALID FOR" or the "NOT VALID FOR"? What is the precedence?

Thank for the valuable answers!

These are distinct lines. One is for S4CORE, one is for SAP_BASIS.

Hi, if your product is S/4HANA then S4CORE determines is valid for you and you may ignore SAP_BASIS. As you can see in the "Reason and Prerequisites" section it says is a Program error that means is applicable for all products but valid ONLY for the systems with component S4CORE. 

Regards.

Logically, the condition system refers to software components, and since the system includes both, I believe that both should be considered. It doesn’t make sense to me to interpret them separately (as either/or).

If there is any official documentation that explains this in detail, please share it—I haven’t been able to find anything like that, unfortunately.

Sorry, I misunderstood the question. SAP_BASIS is clearly not relevant, it must be a bug in this generated part (but I see it in other notes e.g. https://me.sap.com/notes/3479674/E). Better ask SAP support. I never saw any documentation about how to interpret the text from the SAP notes.

Actually, there is a NOTE (2220520 - How to determine whether an SAP Note is valid for the system and can be implemented throug...) on how to interpret the text part, but it doesn’t cover this particular case (precedence). We will likely raise an incident/case with SAP.
