Hi,

It seems you are new.

When you uncar you get these two files which you can use for patching your system using spam.

Client dependent details. 000 is Master client. 001 is the copy of 000. 066 is for early watch.

000 is the master client so we use it.

In general, a client is a logical division of data within an SAP system. Some things, like application data are mostly client-dependent, meaning that for example, a G/L account defined in client 123 of system ABC is only visible in that client. Therefore if you logon to client 456 of system ABC you will not be seeing the same database entity (if it is defined at all).

At a technical level, client dependent data simply resides in database tables that have the client number as a key field (typically the first key field).

Multiple clients within an SAP system are often used in development, testing and training systems - so that individuals can work in the same system (on the same codeset) but in isolation of each other.

Rewarding points is one more thing you should learn here onwards. Just kidding but do award points if it helps you.

Hi Abdul,

the ATT file contains attributes for the patch (name, version of SAP basis it can be applied to, etc.), the PAT file contains the patch itself.

If you apply a patch using SPAM, the contents of the PAT file will be extracted (disassembled) to your transport directory. SPAM will trigger the necessary steps to import the patch.

Best regards,

Elmar.
