Summary :
The SAP Note discusses the specialized use of .SAR/.CAR files for delivering objects under urgent circumstances. These files, used when regular delivery methods like Support Packages are unsuitable, come with notable risks, including potential data loss and system inconsistencies. Usage is restricted to scenarios like pilot deliveries, urgent legal changes, or critical stoppers. Implementing these requires adherence to specific procedures, notably ensuring compatibility with the system's release and handling these files as per the guidelines to avoid overwriting issues or causing system incompatibility. Proper precautions must be taken due to the absence of standard SAP checks and translations in .SAR/.CAR files.
