SAP Enhancement Package Concept
Enhancement Package Key Concept

SAP Enhancement Package Concept
Enhancement Package Key Concept
We have adapted our major release strategy to better fit your adoption cycle. To ensure thatyou benefit from new developments and innovations while minimizing the impact on your coreoperational systems, SAP uses enhancement packages to speed up the delivery of newfunctions.
With SAP enhancement packages, you can install and activate new functions depending onyour business needs without having to perform a system upgrade.
You can selectively implement the new functions and activate the software upon businessdemand. As a result, you can isolate the impact of software updates and make new functionsavailable faster due to shortened test cycles.
Implementation
There are three different scenarios to implement an enhancement package:
Installation of an enhancement package on an existing SAP system
New installation of an SAP system including an enhancement package
Upgrade of an SAP system including an enhancement package
The installation process of enhancement packages consists of two different steps:
Technical installation of an enhancement package
Activation of new functions using the switch framework technology
You have a choice on both levels installation and activation. You do not need to install a full
enhancement package. Instead, you can update the software components that are related tothe functional enhancements you want to use.
From a business point of view, functional enhancements are grouped into business functions(BFs). The technical installation of the business functions does not change the systembehavior. The new functions are available in the system, but are not active. After theinstallation, no user interface or process change takes place. You must explicitly activate newfunctions so that they become visible in the system. As a result, changes are predictable andthere are no side effects as only the activated areas change.
With the switch framework technology (transaction SFW5), it is possible to control theactivation of new SAP objects in ABAP-based SAP systems. The activation process triggersa background job that automatically performs all changes in the SAP system.
You cannot reverse a business function once it is activated.
After you have activated a business function, you can see the changes and newdevelopments in the SAP system, for example:
Menu entries
New screens
New fields on the application user interfaces
IMG activities required for the implementation

18/24
SAP Enhancement Package Concept
Key Facts About Enhancement Packages
18
New table entries in Customizing tables and system tables
You can create a transport request with the current settings of the switch framework. You cancheck functional changes and the impact of an activated business function in advance in thebusiness function documentation.
Test the installation and activation on a sandbox system.
Maintenance
SAP enhancement packages have Support Packages of their own that are equivalent to theSupport Package versions of the underlying SAP system. You must install the enhancementpackage in combination with the latest available Support Package stack. This approachreduces installation, modification adjustment, and testing effort. Using this strategy, you caninstall SAP enhancement packages as a normal maintenance activity together with Support
Package stacks.
An enhancement package requires a specific Support Package stack level in the sourcerelease SAP system. If the SAP system is on a lower Support Package stack level, allrelevant Support Package stacks are automatically included into the download queue, as wellas the latest available Support Packages for the enhancement package.
Tools
The enhancement package installation requires the following tools:
SAP Solution Manager Maintenance Optimizer
Installation or upgrade tools (depending on your scenario)
The SAP Solution Manager Maintenance Optimizer (accessible from the ChangeManagement work center) supports the download of a consistent queue that includes allnecessary Support Packages and enhancement packages. In addition, SAP SolutionManager calculates a valid import queue for the selected SAP system and generates theenhancement package stack configuration file that you require for the installation.
For the new installation of an SAP system including enhancement package as well as for theupgrade of an SAP system to a higher release including an enhancement package, you usethe standard installation and upgrade tools (SAPinst, SAPup and SAPJup). To install anenhancement package on an existing SAP system, you use the SAP Enhancement PackageInstaller (SAPehpi). It allows enhancement packages to be installed with reduced downtime.SAPehpi uses the shadow system installation strategy, a well-known feature in the upgradetechnology.
Key Facts About Enhancement Packages
The following list summarizes important facts about the enhancement package concept andrecommended approaches:
Install only selected parts of the enhancement package. The selection is driven bythe functional need from a business point of view.
You cannot mix the installation of different enhancement package versions in yourABAP-based SAP system. You can have just one enhancement package version inthe SAP system.
8/12/2019 MasterGuide OG Mine BS2010
19/24
SAP Enhancement Package Concept
Key Facts About Enhancement Packages
19
SAP enhancement packages are cumulative, meaning that each new enhancementpackage includes new innovations of its own as well as all innovations delivered withprior packages.
We recommend installing the latest available enhancement package version.
Install enhancement packages and Support Packages in one single step (thisincludes the preconditioned Support Packages).
SAP enhancement packages have Support Packages of their own that are equivalentto the Support Package versions of the underlying SAP system.
SAP enhancement packages have the same maintenance period as the underlyingcore application.
The installation of an enhancement package is irreversible.
As long as you do not activate a business function, the installation of anenhancement package has no impact on existing business processes or userinterfaces.
You can only activate business functions in ABAP-based systems, not in Java-basedSAP systems.
The activation of most business functions and extension sets is irreversible. Only asmall number of business functions is reversible.
Test the installation process and activation of new functions in advance on a sandboxsystem. Ensure that you evaluate the runtime and the SAP system behavior, itsdependencies and impacts. Make sure that your SAP system is free of errors beforegoing live.

Enhancement Package Implementation
In the following, you will find an overview of the steps involved in the three different
enhancement package implementation scenarios.Process
Enhancement Package Installation in an Exist ing SAP System
1. You find out, which of the new functions are interesting for your business.
2. You analyze the landscape dependencies.
3. You identify the relevant installable parts of the enhancement package.
4. You make sure that you have set up your SAP Solution Manager system for thedownload of packages, and that you have configured the Maintenance Optimizer.
5. You download the installation queue.6. You perform the installation.
7. You analyze the impact of the business function activation with the dependencyanalyzer and the impact analyzer (transaction SWF5).
8. You activate the business functions.
9. You perform additional Customizing, if necessary.
10. You test the new functions.
Tools
SAP Solution Manager Maintenance Optimizer (mandatory)
SAP Enhancement Package Installer (SAPehpi)
Switch framework with Dependency Analyzer and Impact Analyzer in SAP SolutionManager (transaction SWF5)
New Installation of an SAP System with Enhancement Packages
Process
1. You install the SAP system.
The installation of SAP ERP 6.0 including enhancement package 5 comprises thetechnical usage Central Applications. The installation of the technical usage CentralApplications implies that the system is ready for use without installing any furthertechnical usages. Of course, you can optionally install additional technical usages.
2. If you want to install further technical usages:
a. You identify the relevant installable parts of the enhancement package.
b. You make sure that you have set up your SAP Solution Manager system forthe download of packages, and that you have configured the MaintenanceOptimizer.
c. You download the installation queue.
d. You perform the installation.
