Sp02 ( Service Pack 2 ) is the first major release ( RTC: 30 June, 2014 ) after we launched the solution in November last year . As communicated in our solution roadmap, the release coincides with end of ramp- up program for SAP Multichannel Foundation for Utilities( SAP MCF ) after the first ramp-up customer went live with the solution. The solution is now GA ( Generally Available) meaning it is now ready for shipment without any restrictions. Some of the key highlights of Sp02 release:
- Many NEW self-services scenarios are added. For example: A prospect signs up for a new contract, contract end ( move-out), one time bill payment, managing budget billing plans and payment plans
