Create a Communication Arrangement

To test the communication scenario you have created, you need to create a communication arrangement in the SAP cloud solution.

Usually, your customer sets up the communication arrangement for your solution in the SAP cloud solution. However, to test the communication scenario you have created, you need to create a communication arrangement as well.

For more information on communication arrangements, see the “Communication Arrangements Quick Guide” in the documentation of the SAP cloud solution.

Prerequisites

You have created a communication scenario in your solution.

Procedure

  1. In the studio, in the Solution Explorer, right-click the communication scenario definition (.csd, ) file and click Manage Communication Arrangement.

  2. Log on to the SAP cloud solution.

    The Communication Arrangements work center view opens.

  3. Click New.

  4. The New Communication Arrangement view opens.

  5. In the Select Scenario step, select the communication scenario that you have created in the studio and click Next.

    Note

    When you hover over the name of the communication scenario, its key is displayed. It contains the namespace of your solution.

    When there is a solution with a communication scenario, and a patch solution is also created for the solution, you will see two communication scenarios with the same name in the system. In such cases, if you wish to create a communication arrangement to test the communication scenario within the patch solution, then you must select the communication scenario with the word patch in brackets.

    End of the note
