Working with the SOA Manager 
You can use the SOA Manager for the complete configuration of service providers and consumer proxies for a local system.
Configuration that is done once only for your landscape. For example, the Services Registry or provider systems.
Configuring Service Providers and Consumers
Configuration that is specific to each server or business scenario.
Accessing and Testing a Service
Check that a service is functioning correctly and find the URL of the configured service.
Manage and configure logs and traces for Web service provider and consumer calls.
Check for errors in the message exchange between a service provider and a service consumer.
The service and proxy definitions that you want to configure are available as development objects in the back-end system.
You have Administrator authorization.
For more information, see: Authorizations
To start the SOA Manager, use the transaction code SOAMANAGER.
Note
To set up the SOA Manager for local access, you do not need to perform any special steps.
