Starting with SAP NetWeaver Business Client 5.0, both
the administrator configuration file and the user
configuration file appear in the new SAP UI landscape format. You use the
administrator configuration file to define connection configurations (landscape
settings).
What is the Administrator Configuration File?
The administrator configuration file replaces former
SAP Business Client configuration
settings for system connections and search providers in
%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\SAP\NWBC\NwbcOptions.xml. This file can
be provided to the end-users either by pull request or by push request. For more
information, see
Provision of Configuration Files.
Note The
SAP Business Client client
configuration that is reflected in the following locations remains in the
NwbcOptions.xml file:
- Personalize and Support
dialogs
- SingleOptions
- WebbrowserFeatures
- NwbcCommands sections
- Elements in
%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\SAP\NWBC\NwbcOptions.xml
Caution When modifying the administrator configuration file, the UUIDs
contained in this file must not be changed! Otherwise, the
references from connections contained in the user configuration files to the
administrator configuration file are disrupted.
What is the User Configuration File?
The user configuration file contains all user-specific configuration settings made by
the user himself/herself. For example, new folders or connections created by a user
would be recorded in this file.
