Getting Support

To receive product support, please navigate to Product Support and choose from the available options. Please note that product support is aiming at helping troubleshooting documented features. In case you wish to raise an improvement request, please refer to SAP Business Technology Platform - Digital Experience.

General Recommendations

We recommend that when you build apps, keep supportability in mind. Among other things you can

  1. Enable users to control client-side logging verbosity
  2. Use SDK features to include supportability features in your apps, such as Logging
  3. Upload logs and Offline client databases to mobile services via SDK APIs, or send them via email

Raising Incidents

If you have determined that you need to raise an incident with SAP, please note that you will need a valid S-User ID to file it. In case you don't have one, we recommend you reach out to your account representative to obtain one. The following video provides recommendations on creating good incidents that will make it easier for SAP to support you. Alternatively, please refer to SAP Note 1296527 - How to create a support incident (contact SAP Product Support). The list of support components below will help you file incidents in the correct category.

In addition, here is a checklist of information commonly required to efficiently process your support inquiries:

  1. A Problem description including the error message or phenomenon vs. expectation. If possible, provide full-screen screenshots so as to provide more context.
  2. The environment used: Products with major, service pack (SP) and patch level (PL) versions and infrastructure, e.g. SAP Business Technology Platform Neo environment or Cloud Foundry environment
  3. Reproduction steps, if any
  4. Data collected by you to so far in the context of the issue, e.g. documentation, step-by-step guides, screenshots, traces, infrastructure map and logs
