Some questions regarding the release and depencies of EhP 5

Hello experts,

since over 3 weeks I´m collecting information for upgrading our HR system to 7.02 and EhP5 for some application components. The notes which are released for the customers are clear, but I have opened an OSS message for some depencies and the availibility of the upgrade files. SAP support couldn´t tell me any details about it (after 3 weeks!).

So my questions are:

1) Is EhP5 still in ramp-up? In the PAM you find only the release date Q2, but not details.

2) Are any depencies to 7.00 portal components? (e.g. LSOCP)

3) Any known issues from a ramp-up customer, which we should keep a closer eye on?

Thanks in advance!

Regards,

Jens
