Creating an Instance of a BSP Callable Object

To use the BSP application in a business process modeled with Guided Procedures (GP), you must register the application as a callable object. This creates an instance of the BSP callable object, which you can then activate and execute.

• To be able to work with the GP design time, you must be assigned to portal role GP Business Expert, or have the relevant permissions.
• The logical destination and portal alias for the system where your BSP application resides must be configured. For more information about RFC connectivity, see Maintaining RFC Destinations . For more information about portal aliases, see Managing System Aliases .

1. Launch GP design time, as described in Launching Guided Procedures (GP) Design Time .
2. Choose Create Callable Object from the contextual panel.

   The first screen Basic Data is displayed.

3. Enter the following data as shown in the example:
   • Type - select User Interface → Business Server Page (BSP)
   • Name - for example, Display Pictogram
