SNOTE is used for implementing the SAP notes in the system.

SAP notes are small corrections delivered by SAP

before releasing the support package. All the SAP notes will be included in the next support package release. The
SAP notes which contain the correction instructions can be implemented in the system using the SNOTE and there
can FAQ notes also which do not contain the correction instructions but are informative notes. The notes can be
edited by SAP after releasing to the customers and when the SAP note is edited by SAP, new version of the SAP
note will be released.

Few notes will be released to specific customers and they are called pilot release notes and they will be accessible
and can be implemented by only those customers.

Note Implementation :

Before implementing the note in the system, please read the note completing and understand if it is valid for your
system. Few notes contain the manual steps to be performed in the system before implementing the note. Please
check the note and implement the pre-implementation steps manually in the system before implementing the note in
the system and post implementation steps manually after the implementation of the note.
