Filter Settings

Settings		Meaning
Test service	Integrated ITS	If you want to test the Internet service with the integrated ITS, use the corresponding ICM server for the SAP system, which was set up by the system administrator (transaction SMICM). Select the protocol to be used (HTTP or HTTPS). The ICM host name used for the URL generation and the corresponding port are displayed next to the relevant radio button. Enter the path under which the Internet service is stored in the ICF service tree (transaction SICF). The Default Path is sap/bc/gui/sap/its. Choose Other Path if your Internet service was not stored under this subtree and enter the relevant path name.
	External ITS	With this setting, you start the Internet service on the external ITS assigned to the SAP system as the Default Server. The name and path are displayed. The server name and the specified path are derived from the relevant entries in the Customizing table TWPURLSVR (transaction SM30). If there is no entry for this setting, the corresponding entry was not yet entered in SM30. In this case, you should inform your system administrator (unless you have authorization to maintain the table yourself).
	Other server	Regardless of the default ITS server, you can enter the (valid) name of an external ITS server (and port number, if necessary) in this input field. Enter <its_hostname>:<port number> in the Server field and the path name in the Path field (default path is /scripts/wgate/). If you want to generate an HTTPS URL, you should mark the field Use HTTPS. Note the assignment of the Web server to an SAP system. If you specify a Web server belonging to the ITS instance of a different SAP system, the service will be started on a different SAP system to the one from which it was published.
Publish	On all defined sites	The service is published on all ITS instances assigned to the SAP System. The message that follows successful publication is only displayed if the service could be published successfully on all ITS instances. Errors occurring on any instance are logged. Normally, this setting should no longer be used.
	On selected site	From the dropdown box, choose a single ITS on which you want to publish the service. If necessary, choose the default ITS. The name of the ITS instance is derived from the RFC destination details as maintained in transaction SM30. If the list box contains no entries, no destinations have been created. To maintain destinations, start transaction SM30, enter the view IACORDES and create the RFC destination. If you do not have authorization for this, inform your system administrator.
	In local directory	You can also publish an Internet service in your local file directory. This directory can be used as temporary storage for the files.
