Use

Note Assistant (transaction SNOTE) helps you when working with SAP Notes.

After you have loaded the SAP Notes you need into your system, you can automatically implement the corrections (correction instructions) contained in them.

Features

Note Assistant has the following functions:

     Reporting

You can display an overview of all existing SAP Notes and their processing status, as well as all implemented corrections.

     Project Administration

You can assign SAP Notes to users, who then specify them a processing status. The system informs you if an SAP Note has an inconsistent status.

     Logging

The system logs all processing steps.

     Correcting Errors

You can automatically implement the corrections (correction instructions) contained in SAP Notes into your system.

     Integration

When you import a Support Package or perform out an upgrade, the system automatically recognizes which Notes have been implemented by an imported Support Package or upgrade, and which correction instructions still need to be implemented.

Activities

     Your worklist contains SAP Notes in the following categories:

·         SAP Notes that are assigned to you as a user.

·         All SAP Notes that are inconsistent, even if they are assigned to another user.

·         New SAP Notes that are not yet being processed.

Choose Download SAP Note to download Notes using an RFC connection. You can also load SAP Notes from the SAP Service Marketplace and then perform an Upload.

You can use the Note Browser to find any SAP Note in the system.

The note display enables you to read the Note carefully and view changes made to the source code in ABAP programs and other repository objects.

     By choosing Check Note, you can check the implementation status.

You can classify the SAP Note and specify the processing status.

You can implement the correction instructions that are contained in the Note and then remove them if necessary.

In the Log, you can display the processing steps and add your own comments.

     By choosing Corrected Objects, you can switch to the modification browser, where you can see all the objects that have been corrected by an SAP Note.

     After importing a Support Package, you can use Modification Assistant to perform follow-up activities.

To ensure that the SAP Notes in your system are the latest available in the SAP system, choose Download Current Version of SAP Notes. If a newer version of a Note is available, the system downloads it for you.
