You should *never* bypass REQs. If there are REQs that are available but that you don't have, you should probably get them. Sometimes a PTF will have a REQ that is not available. In that case the PTF should not be applied until the REQ is available. You don't have to apply the REQs first. They can be applied at the same time as the SYSMODs that REQ them. As long as they are available at APPLY time, SMP will handle it. It is perfectly normal to have some PTFs that will not go on. You might want to research them. In some cases you might want to contact the support center.
