Hi John,

The info provided above should help you.

However I would also recommend this link:

https://websmp101.sap-ag.de/~form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01200252310000064279&_SCENARIO=011000358700000002...

Here apart from PDF's and PPTs for support pack import you will get SAP tutor help. In my opinion it is the best guidance tool offered by SAP.

Check for all the SAP tutor files (.sim). You can also download SAP tutor to play these files from this page.

It is very interactive and very easy to understand.

Let us know if it was helpful to you.

Hi

applying support pack..

1. download the corresponding "XXX.CAR' file to '\usr\sap\trans\' directory

2. before un-caring that file, make sure that it is correct file.

3. copy 'sap-car.exe' file to this directory.

4. run this command at the prompt 'sapcar -xvf "xxx.car" '

5. go to 'esr\in' directory and check tht files "xx.pat" and "XX.at" file created.

6.log on to the server using SAP log on pad.

7. with '000' client and execute "SPAM"

8.click "display/define' button.

9.select appropriate component and click 'ok'.

10. check the list of service packs available.

11. select that SP and say 'ok'.

12. select 'truck icon' & it will start importing that service pack.

care to be taken..

1) its always gud to apply 1 SP at a time.

2) before importing the a SP, check the requirement set are met.

3)and follow the order.. BASIS,APPL..

Check the transaction SPAU for changes that will occur in the system.

This will help you.
