3.1Creating and Configuring a SAP BAPI eWay

All eWays contain a unique set of default parameters which you must configure from the following locations:

ƒFrom the Environment Explorer tree—which contains global SAP connectivity parameters that commonly apply to all SAP BAPI eWays (SAP BAPI external systems having the same connectivity configuration) in the Project. Saved parameters are shared by all eWays in the SAP BAPI External System Properties window.

For additional information on creating the Connectivity Map components in a sample Project, see Create a Connectivity Map on page 84. For information on creating the Environment Explorer components, see Create an Environment on page 86.
