Summary :
SAP recommends regularly updating the IPC patch to ensure the effectiveness of the Internet Pricing and Configurator (IPC) applications, especially before raising any issues to SAP support. Patches for IPC, available from the SAP Service Market Place (SMP), are released to address issues identified post the shipment of IPC support packages. Important points include ensuring compatibility by using patches designed for specific support packages and versions, acknowledging that patches encompass all prior fixes, and the process being limited to weekly updates every Friday. Users must verify compatibility and content of patches through the included documentation and ensure CRM and IPC versions are synchronized.
