How should I implement an SAP Note using the Note Assistant?

Prerequisites are that you already know the number of the SAP Note that corrects the error and that the SAP Note contains correction instructions.


  • Start the Note Assistant (transaction SNOTE).

  • Download the SAP Note from SAPNet - R/3 Frontend. To do this, choose "SAP Note Download" (Ctrl + F8) and enter the relevant SAP Note number. The downloaded SAP Note appears in your worklist under the category New.

  • Read the SAP Note!>/li>
  • Check whether the SAP Note entails manual activities. (See also answers to questions concerning ABAP Dictionary objects, function module interfaces and messages.)·

  • If this is the case, first perform the manual activities.

  • Implement the SAP Note. To do this, choose Implement SAP Note. During implementation, the Note Assistant may download prerequisite SAP Notes that must be implemented before.

  • Also read and check the prerequisite notes! This is necessary, since they may also contain manual activities. If you don´t do this, the syntax check can bring up an error of the relevant field of the function module, for example.
