Implementing SAP
Notes is not an easy task. Although it is automated we can’t
still talk about full automation of the task. There are still many tasks which
need to be manually performed by someone who does the implementation. For some
part I think there is no possibility to fully automate them. However there are areas while SAP
Notes processing which can be nicely automated.
Recently I read and blog
post
which address one of most painful parts. It is downloading the SAP
Notes itself. We all know it. A bug in spotted in the system
and SAP
Note
is found to fix it. Then someone (usually SAP Basis or ABAP programmer) is
asked to do so. In case the Note is just one correction without any manual
activities it is piece of cake. The Note is just simply downloaded in SNOTE
(Note Assistant) tcode. Then it is implemented. Once it is tested it just needs
to be confirmed in the SNOTE that implementation is okay.
However many times we are
facing the SAP
Notes that are having either many corrections, or they have
may other SAP
Notes as prerequisites or are having many manual steps. To
address download of prerequisites Notes there is a tool that enables to upload
multiple notes into SNOTE at one shot. You can easily download the Notes from SAP
marketplace via Download
Manager into local machine. Then via using this tool you can
upload all the Notes form the workstation to SNOTE.
The tool is delivered via
ABAP program ZSCWN_NOTES_UPLOAD
- Load multiple notes files into SNOTE. More details about the
tool see in blog: Report-zscwnnotesupload--load-multiple-notes-files-into-snote.
