What is an Implementation Package?

Details

An Implementation Package is a collection of actions that are to be implemented in an SAP system. The implementation package defines the structure that the SAP system will use and defines how the actions map into that structure. An Implementation Package consists of the following:

One Implementation Package that defines basic information about the purpose and content of the Implementation Package.
One or more Actions representing the original work requests.

There are multiple records in ASI that represent work that you want to perform. These records are linked either directly or indirectly to the root Implementation Package and can belong to different families, such as the Maintenance Item family. Because they can belong to different families throughout the GE Digital APM documentation, we refer to them generically as work items.
