Purpose

This article intends to help users how to install BPC NW Services Pack.

Overview

BPC NW services pack installation is somehow different from BPC Microsoft version.

This wiki covers the steps for users to install the Services Pack of BPC NW. 

Installation

The following steps must be completed in client 000
