A business scenario consists of multiple service definitions. A configuration profile can be assigned to one or more service definitions in a business scenario.

You can create multiple business scenarios.

The same service definition can be active within multiple business scenarios. If a service definition is not active in any business scenario, the corresponding binding is deleted.

When to use a Business Scenario

You should use a business scenario in the following situations:

  • At least one system is connected to more than one system, and service groups are used for receiver determination in the system's outbound interfaces

  • Many interfaces need to be configured in each system

  • At least one system configuration needs to be transferred from a development or test system to a production landscape
