Post Installation Steps for ABAP:
Configure your Solution Manager 7.2 profile parameters according to the note

You run Maintenance Planner instead of Maintenance Optimizer transaction using the link Maintenance Planner for applying SP Stack 01. You can have detailed information about planner using Maintenance Tools: Maintenance Planner and Maintenance Optimizer
These are the screenshots from maintenance planner. You can download stack.xml file on download files tab of the application.
You get stack.xml file and download Support Packages
Before applying the stack you should check below notes and according to directions you need to apply some of them before, some of them during update and some of the others after SUM update.
I advise you to read the notes carefully because this can effect the update and later configurations.
