SAP notes are part of SAP service portal. In
simple terms, it is SAP'sKnowledge Base that specifically addresses known
issues in SAP system. It is continually updated as SAP customers
report issues in SAP system and SAP releases note with
detailed instructions on how to fix / address the issue.
In single word , SAP Note is the correction /
solution provided by SAP . Some notes we can deploy directly using transaction
SNOTE. http://service.sap.com/notes
Where can I find the Sap Notes?
After you login with your S-user you can search
for a sap note by clicking onHelp&Support and the click on tab Search for Sap Notes or from SAP system in transaction SNOTE:
How to implement SAP notes?
The Sap Notes can be implemented with SAP Note
Assistant. The SAP Note Assistant is called with the sap transaction
SNOTE. The SAP Note Assistant is part of the standard system since
Basis release 6.10. In earlier releases, you can import it as an additional
software component, as an add-on with transaction SAINT. To implement the
SAP Note into your system, select the note on the initial screen of the Note
Assistant and choose Implement Note.
SAP Notes are implemented with the Note Assistant in the
following steps:
1.
You have to localize the required SAP Notes on the SAP
Service Marketplace, for example, by searching for keywords or selecting the
SAP Note number
2.
You can then load these SAP Notes to the development system
with the Sap Note Assistant.
3.
The SAP Notes are checked by the Note Assistant . It checks
whether the release named in the SAP Note and the Support Package level is
correct, whether the SAP Note requires other SAP Notes before it can be
implemented.
4.
The SAP Note is implemented by pressing the import button.
This creates a transport request.
5.
The result of implementing the SAP Note is tested in
the development system.
6.
If this test is successful, the transport request is imported
to the quality assurance system.
7.
If there are no problem then the transport request is
imported to the production system.
The Sap Note Assistant is very important important
because:
·
Automatically implement SAP Notes which handle
ABAP source code corrections .
·
Handle dependencies with other SAP Notes, Support
Packages, and modifications
·
Display all SAP Notes implemented in the system
·
Correct only a single bug, not a replacement for
Support Packages
Very important:
1. Sap Notes cannot change ABAP
Dictionary objects
2. Changes to SAP objects that are
introduced using the SAP Note Assistant do not require an SSCR key.
3. Sap Notes should be implemented
in the test system first and after transported into quality and productive
system.
