Summary :
SAP Note clarifies that Basis Support Package 29 for SAP_BASIS 6.20 requires SAP Kernel patch 1027 or higher. This prerequisite ensures compatibility with new or modified objects that rely on specific kernel functions available from patch 1027 onwards, including components like S_MEMORY_INSPECTOR, activatable assertions in the ABAP debugger, and the CL_ABAP_GZIP class. To implement Support Package 29, SAP advises downloading and importing the necessary kernel patches (DW.SAR and LIB_DBSL.SAR) as detailed in Note 19466. Upgrades to higher kernel patches are supported without restrictions since they maintain backward compatibility with existing Basis packages.
