What is a SAP Note?
SAP notes are the information updates, frequently released by SAP as a method of Online Support System.
OSS notes are online documents published in SAP´s web site http://service.sap.com, to take care of the following:
- Product errors
- Product modifications
- Product upgrades
- FAQs
- Consulting notes
- Customizing notes etc.
Certain notes (which are limited to code correction) can be implemented in a simple way using transaction SNOTE.
Other notes which include customization changes , field/table corrections need to be implemented manually.
Some notes contain critical information about the component and have to be used in addition to the component guides that are delivered to the customer.
Some other notes provide corrections to the code as a fix before a support package is released. The subsequent SPs contain the corrections that were delivered through notes before. Hence it is important to check the current SP level of your system and the SP level with which the corrections come before applying the notes.
