Adjusting Other SAP Systems

The functions described below are only active for the upgrade and not when applying patches.

If you have a production and development system, the maintenance level is first imported into the development system where quality tests are performed. After testing, it is imported into the production system or other SAP Systems.

The process of adjusting objects in the production system is the same as in the development system. If your development system and production system have the same technical status, you can use a simplified adjustment procedure.

The same technical status means that:

  • Before the upgrade was imported, the development system and the production system were running on the same version of a Release
  • All objects modified in the development system are the same in the production system or will be transferred there.

If your systems meet the above requirements, you need not use the transactions SPDD/SPAU to adjust the second system by hand. You can simply transport the changes made from the development system to the production system. If you do this, you are not asked to run the transactions SPDD/SPAU during the upgrade, even if objects have been modified. In this way, the time required for upgrading the production system can be reduced.
