Generic Channel Configuration
We strongly recommend using the OData Channel (ODC) programming paradigm for all SAP Gateway development.
As of SAP Gateway 2.0 Support Package 05, you are strongly recommended to use the Service Builder (transaction SEGW) for your OData design-time development . For more information, see SAP Gateway Service Builder.
Depending on whether you want to develop SAP Gateway content in an SAP Business Suite backend system or in an SAP Gateway hub system, you can choose between embedded deployment or central hub deployment. For more information, see Embedded Versus Hub Deployment and Deployment Options.
Apart from basic configuration settings the Generic Channel configuration activities are listed in the Implementation Guide (IMG) in the system where software component IW_FND is deployed. In the SAP Reference IMG navigate to
