Quick Support
Telekom offers a similar maintenance and maintenance service for your SAP® software as SAP® support directly. SAP® SE checks and certifies the quality of SAP® partner support and service within the framework of the so-called "Support Authorisation".
On the other hand, the IT support team itself often has many different tasks, mostly from very different areas. If the company is large and has a large SAP department, there are of course also special supporters, with explicit expertise. However, this is not always the case, and IT support in day-to-day business is usually the responsibility of the SAP system. And now the IT supporters are getting a message here that's patchy. And from that, the cause of the disorder is now to be identified. Questions are very often required. There are some real ping-pong games here that cost time and frustrate. As a result, tickets are often misdirected. Because support misclassifies them, it incorrectly prioritises them. This leads to very long maturities, to said frustration and ultimately to increased costs, because the operation may then cease. It would be ideal if the support gets a screenshot of the GUI beside the user's comment and additional parameter information, which system etc. Perhaps the information, how important this activity is, which can not be performed at the moment. In order to be able to prioritise the whole thing in the sense of the company.
SAP SUPPORT AND MAINTENANCE
All backbone connections to SAP will be switched from January 1, 2020, as SAP has announced on its support page. Afterwards, communication between ABAP System and SAP will only take place via secure HTTPS connections, for which a dedicated user must also be requested in the Support Portal. In all ABAP systems, SAP hints can no longer be obtained via SNOTE via the old OSS RFC connection. The shipment of Early Watch Alerts to SAP is also affected by this change. Here the shipping route must also be changed to the new HTTPS standard. There is also a great need for action for all SAP customers without a current SAP Solution Manager. In the future, SAP Solution Manager 7.2 SPS08 (SPS07 only with additional information) will be required here. For all older releases, communication with SAP will also be impossible from January 2020. This primarily affects the data in the Maintenance Planner, which are then no longer synchronised. This then indirectly affects all future maintenance projects where the use of the Maintenance Planner is indispensable. Especially with regard to upcoming S/4 HANA migrations, this represents a risk to be avoided.
SAP also wants to facilitate the transition to SAP Cloud powered by SAP HANA for users. SAP assures users that they can focus on the real business and "leave the orchestration of continuous processes to the provider.".
"Shortcut for SAP Systems" simplifies SAP support tasks and adds to the standard's missing functions.
We expect this to increase as many of our customers have not yet discovered the real-time support channels for themselves.
A note box in which data of all kinds can be quickly filed and retrieved. This is what Scribble Papers promises. At first, the program looks very spartan. But once a small structure is in place, you realise the great flexibility of this little helper.
