  1. Background
    • Why do we apply support packs? 
      • HR/Payroll year end support packs are released at this time each year and must be applied before the up coming year's Payroll run.
      • This is opportunity to bring other support pack levels up to date
        • SAP recommends that our support pack level be current
      • We become more efficient and more effective organization in testing
