You can load SAP Notes into your system from the SAP Service Marketplace or SAPNet - R/3 Frontend. You can do this using an RFC connection (SAP Note download) or with the file transfer method (SAP Note upload).
The SAP Note download has the following advantages:
· When you download an SAP Note, you can use the Note Assistant to load it directly into your system from SAPNet - R/3 Frontend.
· If other SAP Notes are entered as prerequisites in an SAP Note, the Note Assistant automatically downloads the prerequisite SAP Notes during the implementation (Implementing Correction Instructions).
· You can download updated versions of SAP Notes at the press of a button (Updating an SAP Note).
To download an SAP Note, you must create an RFC connection to the SAPNet – R/3 Frontend.
Uploading an SAP Note does not require a permanent RFC connection to the SAPNet – R/3 Frontend. To upload the note, you first download the required SAP Note from the SAP Service Marketplace and save it locally on your front-end PC. You then use the Note Assistant to upload the SAP Note.
Prerequisites
· Note download: You have created an RFC connection to the SAPNet – R/3 Frontend. (See also: Activating the Note Assistant)
· Note upload: You have installed the SAP Download Manager, which enables you to load SAP Notes from the SAP Service Marketplace. You can find the SAP Download Manager in the SAP Service Marketplace, under service.sap.com/download-basket ® Get Download Manager.
