There allready are some blogs trying to solve confusion about S/4HANA versions, like Still confused about the S/4 (On premise) versions and their differences ? .
Also, there is SAP S/4HANA 1511 - SPS 00 & 1511 FPS 01 : What's NEW & What's NOT !!
There is one thing though, which still confuses me:
Is there a difference between a Support Package (SP) and a Feature Package Stack (FPS)?
I tend to say "yes" beacuse when things have different names, they should refere to different things;
But I'm more and more drawing the conclusion that they are the same!
For sure, there are currently 2 versions of S/4HANA 1511 on-premise available:
1. “SAP S/4HANA, on-premise edition 1511” ( http://help.sap.com/s4hana_op_1511) ( FPS 0 / Initial Shipment Stack)
2. “SAP S/4HANA, on-premise edition 1511 Feature Package Stack 01” ( http://help.sap.com/s4hana_op_1511_001 )
(Oh, this used to be known as "1602" as well, but that name is no longer used)
We started out with SAP S/4HANA, on-premise edition 1511.
The we applied (as far as I understand) a Service Pack (SP1), now our system looks like this:
So it clearly says "SP-Level" 0001 - but where can I see the FPS (Feature Package Stack) ?
Is it the same thing? I don't know!
So what S/4HANA 1511 on-premise release are you on? Do you know? (Or do you - like me - just think you know? ;-) )
Your feedback is most welcome!
