The Software Update Manager (SUM) Toolbox provides you with various tools to support your activities with SUM.

The SUM Toolbox is realized as an ABAP-based transaction with transaction code SUMTOOLBOX. It allows you to execute specific tools and reports for different software maintenance scenarios using Software Update Manager, with a focus on the downtime-optimized approaches.

The transaction SUMTOOLBOX replaces the previous procedure of delivering the tools using separate SAP Notes. Attached to these were Z-reports that had to be implemented manually in the SAP system. With the SUM Toolbox as a central entry point for the tools, they are easier to access and to use.

The documentation for each tool is embedded in the SUM Toolbox and can be opened there.
