Look how much info you can get from one single detail!

Have you ever been asked ‘Which version of XXX software component you have in your ERP, or BW, or NetWeaver, or S/4hana etc … ?  Either to be assisted through Product Support channel or by a consultant, this information has much more value than simply analyzing note applicability…

Check it out how to get them in the 2 main different skins of an ERP:

1st step – open your SAP GUI, course:

2nd step – Go to System -> Status!

Done ?

3rd step and we are ready to go –

And that’s it. Here I emphasized SAP_APPL. With this info, you can check

1 Product Availability Matrix for release, notes that are delivered in your SP-level, expected maintenance of your component

2 Note applicability, of course… 🙂

and something that for me is very useful when we do not know anymore where to run when troubleshooting exteeeeeeeensively:

3 Note Search on Launchpad Portal !!!

There you can use several filters if you chose EXPERT SEARCH <3 (love that) that are related to your issue… such as component (ex. BC-BW-ODP, BW-BCT-MM-* etc), SP level, if you want a

-code correction or

-recommendation

-information

-modification code

-etc

Hope you can find this useful 🙂

Cheers!
