Product Availability Matrix
If you want to know more about SAP software releases or platform availability, and you have a S-User, PAM is the portal you are looking for!
The Product Availability Matrix is an SAP Portal containing information about:
- Available Product versions
- Maintenance durations
- Upgrade paths
- Technical release information
This is what the interface looks like. When you access with your S-User, you can check four saved searches on the top right of the page:
- My favourites
- Display all product versions
- Available for the current quarter
- Maintenance ending soon
You can look for information about a particular product on the search tab on the top right side of the site, by entering the product name and the version:
For example, I did a search for Netweaver and these are the results:
On the left column you can use filters for your search. For example, you can click on “license products” to see just the products your company and S-user are licensed for.
Among the results of the search, I can choose the correct version by clicking on its name, and I will see all the information related with it.
The current version, the availability and the end of maintenance are display on the main page.
And on the right, there are links with more information:
There are 4 tabs at the top of the site quite useful as well. One of these tabs includes the link to the SAP Software Download Centre which shows the entire portfolio of SAP Products and the corresponding upgrades, support packages and patches available.

You also have the option to give feedback about this Portal if you have an S-User. You simply have to create an incident with the component XX-SER-PAM.

Nice Blog 🙂
Crystal clear instructions to follow and understand! Well done Paula 🙂
Hi Paula,
Could you please let me know if we can compare the product versions using PAM, for example, we have upgraded from GTS 10 to GTS 11 can we get a PAM report on the new functionality, Tcode, changes available in GTS 11 as compared to GTS 10?
looking forward to your reply on this.
Thanks in Advance
Vijay
Hi Vijay,
Thanks for your question.
PAM doesn't compare functionalities between versions unfortunately. I would recommend to check our Help Portal with more documentation about our products.
Kind regards,
Paula
