Configuration of the Web Service for Basic
Authentication
Purpose
As of SAP NetWeaver 7.0, Basic Authentication is set up automatically as the default during the initial installation. However, there are system constellations where the installation procedure cannot perform all steps completely, for example, if ABAP and Java run on different servers.
Prerequisites
You have checked the configuration status after installation. See Configuration Check.
Process Flow
Depending on your scenario, you need to configure Basic Authentication in an ABAP or in a Java system:
ABAP
● Creating a User in the SAP NetWeaver AS ABAP for Basic Authentication
● Setting Up Basic Authentication in an ABAP Environment - Creating the ABAP Connection
● Creating or Changing the Destination Service
Java
● Creating a User in the SAP NetWeaver AS Java for Basic Authentication
