Hi,

Can I directly apply XI3.1 SP7 on top of SP3 for Windows?

The reason I am asking this is because it states that "You can upgrade to the current service pack from any of the previous two service pack levels (SP4 or SP5)" on page 4 of " SAP BusinessObjects XI Document Version: 3.1 Service Pack 7 - 2014-03-19 Service Pack Update Installation and Deployment Guide" on http://service.sap.com/~sapidb/011000358700000196552014E/xi31_sp7_install_en.pdf.

Thank you in advance,

Jin-Chong

you can only jump 2 service packs, so from Sp3 to SP7 you need to stop at Sp5, the document is wrong/right . Its right in the "from any of the previous two service pack levels", but wrong in the " (SP4 or SP5)" (someone just copied Sp6 guide without correction )


I'll see if this can be corrected.

JinChong,

    You need to update to min SP4 first before jumping to SP7.  Only after SP4 the Service Packs are accumulated so you MUST go to that level first.
