Otherwise, there may be a risk that update entries can no longer be updated if changes in the interface structures of the V3 update modules were delivered by support packages.Make sure that the profile parameter rdisp/bufrefmode is set to sendon,exeauto if you are using a system with several application servers and is set to sendoff,exeauto if you are using only one application server. Furthermore the TPPARAM parameter buffreset should be set to TRUE. Otherwise you have no alternative than to execute the command "/$sync" in order for the patch changes to take effect.
