Yes Kip,

SAP has changed its policy for puts around summer of last year. Everybody 
making puts has to be certified which means to go to Walldorf (at least 
for Germany) prior to every new release and do a one weeks class. Without 
a certified put (by doning it without certification SAP anounced not to 
support a system any more. 

Partly this idea is correct, because a lot of people are getting 
tapes/CDs and tying to doubleclick on the installer app like they would 
do with MS Word. But i suppose SAP would certify people like you without 
classes...

I wonder how strikt this is handled by SAP? Has anyone encountered a 
refuse of support yet?
