Setting General Application Properties

Provide general application properties such as the application ID, description, security configuration and domain details while registering the application.

  1. In the Application Creation Wizard, enter a unique Application ID.
    Note:
    • SAP recommends that application IDs contain a minimum of two dots ("."). For example, the following ID is valid: com.sybase.mobile.app1.
    • Application IDs cannot start with a dot ("."). For example, the following ID is invalid: .com.sybase.mobile.app1.
    • Application IDs cannot have two consecutive dots ("."). For example, the following ID is invalid: com..sybase.mobile.app1.
  2. Enter a Display name and Description for the application.
  3. Select the appropriate security configuration from the Security Configuration drop-down list.

    For applications that do not require authentication, select the anonymous security configuration or the Anonymous access checkbox.

  4. Select the appropriate domain from the Domain drop-down list.
  5. (Optional) Assign one or more packages as desired.
    Note: When an application ID is intended for use by Online Data Proxy, packages do not need to be assigned. .
  6. (Optional) Modify application connection template settings.
    1. Select Configure additional settings, and click Next.
    2. To reuse the configuration of an existing template, select a Base template from the drop-down list.
    3. Configure the application connection template properties as required.
      Note: ODP applications require a proxy type connection endpoint. When modifying application connection template settings for an ODP application, you can automatically create the proxy connection endpoint by entering an OData URL as the Application Endpoint value in the connection template Proxy properties. This creates a proxy connection endpoint with the same name as the Application ID. If the ODP application uses an anonymous security configuration, the newly created connection endpoint will have the Allow Anonymous Access property set to True and the Address (URL) property set to the Application ID. If you want to create the proxy connection endpoint manually, leave the Application Endpoint property empty. You manually create the proxy connection endpoint through the SAP Control Center Domains node.
  7. Click Finish to register the application with the configured settings.
