How to configure help in SAP ?

[Former Member · Accepted solution]

Hello Vish

To configure Menu -> Help --> SAP Library

Nowadays all SAP customers are having SAP versions 4.x or greater (means SAP 3.x is not there) or ECC you can say

first of all you should check your SAP version , by

Menu --> System --> Status

then according to your SAP version/release, you have to configure SAP Library

Recently, we configured ECC6 i.e. NW_70 SAP Library in our systems using SR13 tcode and we considered the following Notes

101481 - Collective note: Application help and R/3 library Note

302459 - Setting variants for online help (SAP Library)

333584 - Frequent errors in settings of the SAP Library

Procedure:

In SR13, you have to add a new entry into PlainHtmlHttp tab for win32 platform

1. Client should be open via SCC4 with all changes allowed

2. User should have authorization to go to change mode into SR13 tcode.

1. When you run SR13, it will automatically go into change mode

2. then select PlainHtmlHttp tab, there you might or might not be having some entries, if you are having, then in the last column named 'default', uncheck the row for the platform WN32.

3. then press the button 'New Entries', there you have to fill the following as per columns:

Variant: WN32

platform: WN32

area: IWBHELP

server name: help.sap.com

Path: saphelp_nw70/helpdata

language: EN

default: check the default option

4. save it, it will ask for a transport number, create a new one. this transport you can move into all other systems in your landscape

4. then check Help-->SAP Library

You can first configure and check with Dev system, so as to move the transport into QA/PRD after that.

If any kind of problem comes, pls revert back.

thanks
