Maintaining Execution Parameters

This section describes how to create, change, and delete execution parameter entries.

Prerequisites

You have called transaction SDS_CONFIGURATION in change mode.

Context

The execution of the ABAP download service requires some additional operation parameters (see Execution Parameters). Some values are hard-coded and set as default values, but they can be changed optionally. With transaction SDS_CONFIGURATION, you specify these execution parameters either for each logon user intended to use the ABAP download service or only once as system default entry.

If execution parameter entries exist for both the particular logon user and the system default, only the user-specific parameters are used for the download. If no execution parameter entries are specified for the logon user, the configuration for the system default is taken into account. If a system default entry is also not specified, the hard-coded default values are used.

Procedure

  • Creating a user-specific execution parameter
    1. On the Execution Parameters tab page, choose Create Entry.
    2. In the upcoming dialog box, for all fields the hard-coded system defaults are set. Enter here the respective values for your configuration. If you want to create a system default execution parameter, enter all values except the user name.
    3. Confirm your entries by choosing Continue and then Save.
  • Changing an existing execution parameter
    1. On the Execution Parameters tab page, select the entry that you want to change and choose Change Entry.
    2. Enter your changes.

      You can change all parameters but the user name.

    3. Confirm your changes by choosing Continue and then Save.
  • Deleting an execution parameter

    On the Execution Parameters tab page, select the entry that you want to delete and choose Delete Entry.

    The entry is removed from the Execution Parameters table.
