Procedure documentationStep 3: Create an ICF Service Locate this document in the navigation structure

 

The third step of making an ITS service with flow logic executable in the integrated ITS is to create an ICF service. The ICF service links your Internet service with an HTTP access path and therefore allows it to be displayed in a browser.

Prerequisites

You have successfully performed Step 1: Create an ABAP Program and Step 2: Creating and Adjusting an Internet Service and Templates.

Procedure

To create an ICF service, proceed as follows:

  1. Call transaction SICF.

  2. In the node sap/bc/gui/sap/its, create a service with the name of the previously created Internet service. To do this, select New Subelement from the context menu.

  3. Double-click your newly-created ICF service to open the ICF service configuration.

  4. On the Handler List tab page, enter the ITS handler CL_HTTP_EXT_ITS.

  5. On the Service Data tab page, activate the GUI connection. To do this, select Yes from the drop-down list for the associated field.

  6. On the same tab page, choose GUI Configuration.

    Enter the parameter for the start transaction (~TRANSACTION), which replaces the previous parameter ~initialTemplate of the external ITS for the start template. Specify the transaction created in step 1 as the value.

    Specify all other required service parameters. More information about the possible service parameters: Parameters for Developers.

  7. Save your entries and return to the Maintain Services screen.

  8. Activate the service using the context menu.

Result

You have now created the ICF service for the Internet service to be used by the integrated ITS, and can continue with Step 4: Migrate the Flow Logic.
