SAP Logon - How to Maintain List of Predefined Systems?

[Private_Member_19084]

Hi experts,

I was looking already on the internet and SMP, but didn't really find the solution, how I can maintain in SAP Logon the predefined list of SAP-Systems.

So if you create a new connection in SAP Logon 1st you get the list of available systems, which is empty in my case...

I want to maintain this and for sure also provide this to our endusers.

In which file is this information stored?
Is there any guide for this?

Kind regards

Hi Anon,

You will get the list of pre-defined system , (if is defined earlier ) in saplogon.ini file.

Hello Ashutosh,

yes, but how can I define the list in saplogon.ini file?
Which parameters do I have to maintain there?

Kind regards

Dear Anon,

Saplogon.ini has below entry starting from [configuration]. The parameter [Server] , [Database] , [MSSysName] , [MSSrvPort] and [Description].

But you have to follow the items sequence properly. For eg. if you have given the server name of your sap system against the item1 then you have to maintain the other property of the server only against the item1 of [Database] , [MSSysName] , [MSSrvPort] and [Description].

Hello Ashutosh,

thx for this, I have to try it.

But on the 1st view...isn't it the configuration of "normal" SAP-Logon entries?
What is the difference between connection-entries and predefined-entries, to make the entries available for the list which appears on clicking on "New" entry in SAP Logon?

Kind regards

Dear Anon,

Are you saying that after adding the system , it is not showing in the available list Right?

I have highlighted in yellow , which is missing for you right?

Kindly paste the screenshot of your sapgui.

Hello,

The best way is to edit the file SAPUILandscapeGlobal.xml located in %APPDATA%\SAP\Common. Please review note  2075073 - SAP Logon (Pad) 740: create/distribute server configuration file in the SAP UI landscape f..., section "Creating the server configuration file(s) in SAP UI Landscape format after SAP GUI is installed for the first time". The uuid can be created randomly with an uuid generator (search on google). Once done, start your SAP Logon and you should see the systems you defined in the predefined entries.

Best regards,

Nicolas

Go to SAP GUI logon menu --> choose options

The connection path shows the saplogon.ini file.

Copy that file from any previously installed system and paste it in new installation system.

It will help to don't need of configuring again and again.

Thx for help, but this is not my question.

My question is about how can I define the predefined list of sap-systems, if you create a new entry.
