Assign a System to a Product/Change Product Version

After upgrading manually-created systems, which are not automatically updated, you can assign another product or product version to a system, e.g. you change the product assignment of the system when upgrading from R/3 4.6C to R/3 Enterprise 4.7.

Note

Automatically-captured systems can appear more than once in the landscape components, if your components cannot be assigned automatically, unambiguously to a product, e.g. the automatic data capture cannot determine whether SAP APO or SAP BW is installed in a system. In this case, the system appears under both SAP APO and SAP BW in the Solution Manager System Landscape. Flag one product as leading. (Item 4).
