ABAP: How to check if a note is implemented technically

Most often you are in situations wherein you need to implement SAP notes for fix issues in SAP standard.You can do the same via transaction SNOTE.

Additionally , you can check the status of notes via transaction SE95 as well.

But if one needs to find out through an program whether a note is implemented or not , here is a simple trick:

Use FM: SCWB_NOTE_CHECK_IMPLEMENTED and this will return the status of the note.

The status is tired in table CWBNTHEAD : Header table for OSS Notes in customer systems.
