Creating External Services for SAP Transactions 

Use

You create an External Service for an R/3 transaction based on a master iView. For R/3 transactions, however, you do not have to know which master iView is involved because the master iView is selected automatically.

Procedure

To create an External Service of type R/3 transaction:

  1. Select object "External Service" in the edit area and choose Create.
  2. Enter a title, technical name and possibly a description of the service and choose next.
  3. Enter an original language and choose next. Read also Translation of Roles, Worksets and External Services.
  4. Select the type. In this case it is "SAP Transaction".
  5. Choose next.
  6. Enter an R/3 System and choose next.
  7. Enter a GUI type and choose next.
  8. Enter an R/3 transaction and choose next.
  9. Check your entries and choose finish.

    10. The External Service is generated based on the master iView.

    You now see the finished External Service and can see which properties it has. If necessary, you can overwrite certain properties of the master iView.

  10. Save the External Service.

Result

You created an External Service for an R/3 transaction that you can insert directly in a role. Read also Changing External Services in the Role.
