Creating an SAP Connection Profile

A connection profile contains the connection property information needed to connect to a server in your enterprise.

Prerequisites

Install the required SAP files on your Unwired WorkSpace host. See the topic SAP Java Connector (JCo) Prerequisites for details. For information about setting up the Unwired Server runtime environment, see System Administration > Environment Setup > EIS Connections > Preparing Unwired Server to Connect to SAP using Java Connectors.

Task

In Enterprise Explorer, right-click SAP Servers and select New.
Enter a name and optional description for the connection profile and click Next.

Complete the following information:

SAP Connection Properties page Connection tab
Field	Description
Create from properties file You can create the connection in two methods: Selecting this option allows you to retrieve connection information from a properties file that contains SAP connection information. Or, you can follow the wizard instructions and input the values manually.	Select Create from properties file and then select Browse to select a *.properties file that contains the SAP server connection information. All fields on the Connection page are populated automatically based on the selected properties file. Example contents are: jco.client.client=800 jco.client.user=uepusr01 jco.client.passwd=Sybase123 jco.client.ashost=i18nsap1 jco.client.sysnr=01
Application Server	The host name on which the server resides. The default is "localhost". For SAP R3 systems that use a router, application server must have the format: /H/proxyhost/H/application_server where "H" is literal, and proxyhost and application_server are variables that represent the proxy host and application server respectively. For example: `/H/sapm20.anr.ms.test.com/S/3299/H/sapm20.anr.ms.test.com` `http://sapm20.anr.ms.test.com/S/3299/H/sapm20.anr.ms.test.com` Note: When connecting to an SAP message server, application server information is not needed, instead only jco.client.mshost, jco.client.gwhost, jco.client.group, and jco.client.r3name properties are required.
System ID	The unique identity of the SAP server.
System Number	The SAP system number.
Client ID	The SAP Client ID. The default is based on the SAP server configuration.
User Name	Enter the name for the server login.
Password	Enter the password for the server login.
Save Password	Select the checkbox to save your password.

SAP Connection Properties page Advanced tab
Field	Description
Default Code Page	The default language that the SAP server is using.
Code Page Number	The default is auto-filled and varies depending on the language you select. For example, if you choose English, then the default is 1100.
Language	ISO two-character language code (for example, EN, DE, FR), or SAP-specific single-character language code. As a result, only the first two characters are ever used, even if a longer string is entered. The default is EN. If you select a language from the drop down list, code page number will be auto-filled according to the language.
Other Properties	Select this to set advanced properties.

Click Finish to create the connection profile.
