SAP Note 640609 - SPAU incorrectly displays note corrections as obsolete

Component : SAP Notes Assistant - Customer Extensions

Solution : https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/640609 (SAP Service marketplace login required)

Summary :
After importing Support Packages and running modification adjustments in transaction SPAU, users may find note corrections erroneously marked as obsolete (gray traffic light) instead of requiring attention (yellow traffic light). This display error misleads users as these notes are still pertinent and need reinstalling. Clicking on the gray traffic light resets the note to its standard status, removing them from visibility in the system, although they can be reinstated through the Note Assistant. This issue stems from a programming error. To resolve this, users should follow specific correction instructions with the Note Assistant prior to importing the next Support Package, ensuring correct note adjustments.

Key words :
gray traffic light, yellow traffic light, gray traffic lights, transaction spam requires, exit transaction spam, call transaction se38, imported support packages, modification adjustment reason, modification adjustment directly, call transaction spau
