Configuration Wizard 

Use

Once you have installed an SAP NetWeaver CE system, the configuration wizard allows you to make the technical settings required for the technical processing of a system or a technical scenario, for example, connectivity, and service users.

Integration

●      You make the technical settings with the Configuration Wizard, immediately after installing a SAP NetWeaver CE system.

●      The configuration wizard is part of the SAP NetWeaver administrator.

●      You use the Configuration Wizard for the initial technical configuration. Further configuration depending on your development scenario might be necessary.

Prerequisites

You have installed your system.
