SAP Note transport-based correction instruction (TCI) is a new way to deliver ABAP correction instructions to customer in a flexible manner.
Transport based correction instructions contain notes that are larger than normal OSS notes. This tool leverages the SPAM transaction to apply these large packages.
What is Transport-Based Correction Instruction
Transport- based correction instructions have the following qualities:
- ABAP transport with a set of attributes
- Set of objects of one software component version
- Planned deliveries with assembly and validation
- Created out of correction code line
- Only dedicated functionality affected
- Validity is restricted to a certain SP Range
- Dependencies to other corrections and SPs can be defined
- Integrated into standard correction and upgrade process
TCIs are delivered through an SAP Note.
