Required SAP Support Packs and/or Notes

[rajan_s]

Hi Experts,

Is there any way to find out what are the required support packs and/or sap notes after sap installation/configuration is complete other than what is provided in the installation guide? In particular, for SAP PI 7.1, for example, are there any required sap support packs / notes that need to be applied after a new system installation? Can someone please provide a list of important/critical support packs/notes that need to be applied as corrective measure?

Thanks,

Rajan

The latest SP is SP09 & You also have Ehp1 also released.

Refer the Support Package Guide at http://service.sap.com/maintenancenw2004s for further details about the components..

Thanks Sekhar. What about SAP Notes specific to PI 7.1? How can I find out what are the absolute necessary/critical SAP Notes for PI 7.1?

hI Rajan,

I presume you know the importancy of NOTES.

When you are deploying the latest SP08/SP09 in general there won't any need of applying specific note unless you encounter some issue during the SP deployment. If I were to do SP then i will go through the release note to understand the pre-requisistes and procede accordingly.

I hope this helps you.

Thank you, Sekhar.

I understood the importance of SP vs. Notes. If I did not implement SP, then I can apply specific note according to the problem otherwise SP should resolve most common issues. If I was to not apply SP since it may cause unexpected behavior to the components/interfaces, I would go with the Notes specific to the problem but I was curious what are the common issues in PI 7.1 which I can look for notes and apply when necessary.

I will close this thread with this understanding.

Thank you,

Hi Rajan,

Happy to help but as per I know there are NO pre/mandatory notes that i remember.

all SAP NOTES deployment is issue driven rather proactive.
