Hi,
1. Yes your statement is correct. Also same result in 8.81 PL10.
2. The above SAP note should be only valid for 9.0 version not for lower versions. Further they stated that, "Currently supported SAP B1" means, I think 8.8, 8.81 there is no support from SAP due to end of maintenance stream.
Note :
For 8.82 PL 11 End of maintenance 30 Jun. 2015
For 8.81 PL04 End of maintenance 29 Feb. 2012
For 8.8 PL 10 End of maintenance 30 Apr. 2011
Thanks & Regards,
