Implications of applying support packages(SPAU SPDD)

[Former Member]

Hi

I am going to apply patches to my development system in which it is showing that certain repository and dictionary objects will be modified.

Please tell me whether it is possible to keep the old version of the object as well as the new version?

If I keep the old version during patch application is it possible to go to the new version after applying the patches and vice versa if I keep the new version?

Is it that the SAP system keeps the old versions as well as the new version in the system no matter what option I choose saved in the database?

Kindly treat this as urgent.

Regards
