1. Some SAP Basis administrators have reported difficulty applying this OSS note using SAP utilities. You may have to apply and verify it manually. SAP recommends using the Note Assistant (transaction SNOTE). The only prerequisite for note 613818 is that notes 611271 and 615634 have previously been applied. If you run into problems, create a customer message on the SAP Service Marketplace (http://service.sap.com), specifying the BC- UPG-NA component.
2. This SAP Note is only required if SAP Note #578909 (“CCAP_REV_LEVEL_MAINTAIN locks only the change number”), included in Release 4.6C Support Package 41, has been applied. SAP Note #656093 corrects an SAP software defect introduced by SAP Note #578909. SAP Note #578909 is not required by Windchill Enterprise Systems integration, but if it has been applied, you must also apply SAP Note #656093.

Account for any gaps in completing the above checklist and determine how to close them. If you cannot configure your SAP distribution target systems as specified, you may have to customize Windchill Enterprise Systems Integration.
