• Key Concepts: 
  The Software Delivery Catalog (SDC) is a component of the SAP Change & Transport System (CTS). It is a repository of all the software components that are used in an SAP system. It stores information about the software components, such as their version numbers, dependencies, and other related information. The SDC also provides a way to track changes to the software components over time. 
  
  How to use it: 
  The SDC can be used to manage the software components in an SAP system. It allows users to view the current version of a component, as well as any previous versions that have been released. It also allows users to compare different versions of a component and see what changes have been made. Additionally, users can use the SDC to deploy new versions of components or roll back to previous versions if needed. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using the SDC, it is important to keep track of the version numbers for each component. This will help ensure that the correct version is deployed when needed. Additionally, it is important to keep track of any dependencies between components, as this can affect how they are deployed and used.
