Background documentation Behavior of SAP MI on the Mobile Device Locate the document in its SAP Library structure

You can configure how SAP MI is to behave on the mobile device. For example, you can determine the synchronization behavior and password settings. The configuration is controlled using parameters in the MobileEngine.config file.

You can find an overview of all the parameters in Parameters in MobileEngine.config. You configure the following areas:

      General Parameters for Synchronization  

      Parameters for Synchronization Using the Synchronization Service  

      Parameters for Time-Controlled Synchronization  

      Parameters for Repetitive Synchronization  

      Parameters for Data Packaging  

      Parameters for Data Compression  

      Parameters for Security and Authentication  

      Parameters for Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) Support  

      Parameters for Loading System Libraries  

      Parameters for System Messages  

      Parameters for Tracing  

      Parameters for Data Carrier Synchronization  

      Parameters for Hiding Menu Options, Buttons and Links  

      Parameters for the AWT Application User Interface  

      Parameters for Starting Applications  

      Parameters for Single Sign-On  

      Parameters for the Language Check for Applications  

      Parameters for Installation Control  

      Parameters for Database Configuration  

      Parameters for Controlling Deployment  

      Parameters for Language and Country  

You can distribute the configuration to the mobile device as follows:

      By preconfiguring the installation (see Preconfiguring the SAP MI Client (Optional))

      Using parameter sets (monitoring configurations) and device configurations (see Structure linkConfiguration of Mobile Devices Using Device Configurations (old configuration) or Configuration of Mobile Devices Using Device Configurations (new) (new configuration))

      In exceptional cases, using a configuration file if the parameter is not provided by a parameter set (see Structure linkConfiguration of Mobile Devices Using the Configuration File (old configuration) or Configuration of Mobile Devices Using the Configuration File (new) (new configuration)
