Difference between PI_BASIS 2005_1_700 and PI_BASIS 2006_1_700

[Former Member]

Hi Guyz,

Can anybody let me know the difference between these two, how confusing is this. Do we need both? We have PI_BASIS 2005_1_700 till patch 13 but suddenly in market place i found PI_BASIS 2006_1_700, two different PI_BASIS for same release? Do we need both while updation PI_BASIS 2005_1_700 or just continue with our PI_BASIS 2005_1_700.

Please guide us.

Thanks

Please request side effect report from the SAP to understand the changes and effect on the system for any confusion related with S patches.

SAP provides the side effect report for each and every patch that it releases.

You have to have only one release of PI_BASIS .Preference shall always be latest but this depened upon the dependency of some other application also.i.e Bi connected to ECC6.0 etc.

Thanks

Hi Guys,

We sorted this problem. SAP released two PI_BASIS for 7.00 (2005 & 2006). We need to maintain any one to the latest pack level. For e.g. if we are at SP16 for which PI_BASIS 2005 is 0016, then there is no need of any PI_BASIS 2006 package ( the latest is 0006 which is equal to PI_BASIS 2005 0016). So its enough if we maintain any one to the latest level.
