Hi,
Support Package is basically collection of the error corrections. When any bug or defect is found in SAP product, it is reported to SAP guys. They provide the correction in the form of SAP Note. If the same or similar bug is reported by multiple end user, they do enhancements or workarounds in the earlier version of product and call it a support package with increased level.
For more details, you can go through this link http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/EN/81/f6ee39f4c20b64e10000000a114084/content.htm

    In SAP note 1238872 the release of new support package has been mentioned (Quote: "Download the BI 7.0 front-end add-on for SAP GUI 7.10, Support Package 700 from the SAP Service Marketplace.")
    So, can someone tell me, when this Support Package will be released?
    (At the moment the last version provided in download area is 6.02)
    Kind regards
    Markus

    Thanks, but my question was not how can I workaround, cause I was able to read that note. (Unfortunatly the workaround solves the problem for the query designer only and the error still persists when executing the query)
    However, can some one please tell me, when the Support Package 7.00 will be released?

  • How to deal with delta queue when importing Support Package/Kernel Patch

    Hi,
    From my experience, when importing a Support Package for an installation, the system will issue an error message and get stuck if this Support Package is about to alter the structures used in delta loads.
    But I would like to double with you if there is possible that the support packet which is going to alter structure, but no error message. If so, the delta data will be lost.
    Do we need to clear down the delta queue every time we import support package?
    Anyway, is there anyone have any suggestions or steps regarding this question?
    Many Thanks
    Jonathan

    Hi,
    Delta queues during support package upgrade
    Its always better to drain the delta queues before an upgrade.
    As a standard practice we drain the delta queues by running the IP/ chain multiple times.
    As a prerequiste we cancel/reschedule the V3 jobs to a future date during this activity.
    The V3 extraction delta queues must be emptied prior to the upgrade to avoid any possible data loss.
    V3 collector jobs should be suspended for the duration of the upgrade.
    They can be rescheduled after re-activation of the source systems upon completion of the upgrade.
    See SAP Notes 506694 and 658992 for more details.
    Page 17
    Load and Empty all Data mart Delta Queues in SAP BW. (e.g. for all export DataSources)
    The SAP BW Service SAPI, which is used for internal and ‘BW to BW’ data mart extraction, is
    upgraded during the SAP BW upgrade. Therefore, the delta queues must be emptied prior to the
    upgrade to avoid any possibility of data loss.

  • Problem with Support Package SAP_BASIS (Error Stop) IMPORT_PROPER

    Hi Everyone,
    i want to apply Support Pack for SAP_BASIS. Now Its Level is 0009 (ECC 6.0).
    i did import the SPs SAPKB70010 and SAPKB70011. We only want until Stack 11.
    The test scenario was without an error. But during the Standard scenario there occurred a problem:
    SPAM Status: Error Stop
    Import Phase: IMPORT_PROPER
    I guess there are different reasons:
    1) We didn´t make a SPAM update before! it´s still version 7.00/0021.
    2) I have no idea if the guy before me made a kernel update.
    And now i wanted to update SPAM to version 27. but first i should "repair" this problem because the SAP_BASIS is still in the queue.
    Is there a possibility to delete the queue, update SPAM and the Kernel and then try it again with this support package?
    We cannot go further than Stack 11!
    please help me!

    Hi,
    This is not because of SPAM version nor the upgrade of kernal.If that was a SPAM problem then it will
    not allow you to define the queue.
    There are some know problems with this basis patches please read the note .Just run the import again this error would not occur.
    If this error occurs  then post the import logs for further analysis.
    Regards,
    Vamshi.

  • When I try to upload the lates version of iTunes, it tells me to enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package iTunes.msi. What does this mean as I can't seem to find any such folder and now I cannot uninstall Itunes either

    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • What does this message mean Charging is not supported with this device?

    What does this message mean Charging is not supported with this device?

    You've gotten 2 good answers already, but there's a key assumption in both that you got the message when connecting the iPhone to some other device. If this is the case you can get an adapter in the Apple online store that will allow charging from older devices.
    If, however, this message appears when you are not connected to anything the problem is dirt or moisture in the dock connector at the bottom of the phone. Clean it with a dry toothbrush or air blast.
