SSO using SAP Logon Ticket without EP?

Former Member

It is possible to implement Single Sign on using SAP Logon Ticket but without having Enterprise Portal?

In our landscape we have SAP as well as non-SAP applications (.NET applications). Now we intend to implement SSO. But we are not going to implement Enterprise Portal.

So can anyone suggest an approach for this kind of scenario.

Hello Durga,

It is possible to implement SSO using SAP Logon Tickets without having EP.

If your SAP applications run on a SAP Web application server, you can very much use logon tickets for achieving single sign on.

The whole idea of achieving SSO with logon tickets is that one system would be a ticket issuing system and the other system would be a ticket accepting system.

Now, how would you make your non SAP applications recognize the tickets issued by SAP applications is another question.

Please provide more information on what type of applications you are using.

Refer the following link for the authentication mechanisms on AS ABAP and AS JAVA:

Hope this helps.

Thank you. That was very useful information..

We have our own HR and E-procurement applications developed in ASP.NET. We have recently installed ECC 6.0.

Can you please specify the version of the SAP WAS?

An older but proven method is to install an application from SAP called the SAP Connection Server. It uses the same logic as Netweaver 2004s SR2 and I am using it on serveral .NET Wintel Server applications. Another newer component is the SAP .NET Connector. You code the custom .NET applications to call the version of the connector and configure the conector accordinaly for the backend system.
