Transition to SAP Solution Manager 7.x

SAP will provide a standard upgrade for SAP Solution Manager

Change- & Incident Management will be build on new transaction types. Migration is not supported in standard package but available as a customer project.

Incident Management will be enhanced with knowledge articles, which replace the Solution Database.

Customer-specific UI enhancements must be implemented in the CRM Web UI

After the Go-Live only the new transaction types should be used

Old transactions which are in process should be completed in the old CRM 5.0 UIs without migration to CRM 7.0 transaction types.
