Field

Example

Description

1

Source System

SAP System ID on which transports are to be managed. This name is transferred to the interface.

2

API URL

API URL of the Source System. The back part of the URL is always set by SAP Transport Panel.

Therefore the base URL for the SAP connection should look like following example:

URL with place holders (<>)

https://<host>:<port>

3

Client

Parameter client of the SAP interface.

4

Web URL

URL that will be stored in the Transport Panel of the linked issue. The URL consists of the API URL (https://<host>:<port>), the client (<client>), a static part and a placeholder for the Transport ID

URL with place holders (<>)

https://<host>:<port>/sap/bc/gui/sap/its/webgui/?%7etransaction=SE01%20TRDYSE01SN-TR_TRKORR%3d${transport.id}&%7eOKCODE=SINGLE_REQUEST%3fsap-client%3d110&sap-client=<client>

Replace the placeholders <placeholder >with the real values

5

Transport target

The transport target specifies where a transport is to be imported. This selection supports the SAP Syntax including Target group, Target system or Target system and client.

Syntax	Example	Note
1) <SYS>	C11	Target System ID
2) <SYS>.<CLI>	C11.021	Target System and Client
3) /<Name>/	/EUROPE/	Target Group

6

Edit credentials

The SAP system user with matching permissions to the SAP project. This user will be executing the SAP Transport Panel actions such as creating, copying and releasing transports in SAP.

In edit mode, these two fields disappear behind a button so that the form can be edited without knowing the password.

If changes to access data are cancelled, the previously saved password will remain.

SCC1 configuration

If two different client systems are required for transports of copies this client can be adjusted in this configuration.
