Description

UPDATE 10th March 2020This note has been re-released with updated ‘Solution’ information. We added the requirement to add a manual pre-installation step. This step is to check whether package SWO_TEST exist and create it if it does not exist.

UPDATE 28th January 2020: This note has been re-released with updated ‘validity’ and ‘Solution’ information. We restricted the validity of 740 instructions to SP12.
