SAP Connection Properties

Use an SAP connection to access an SAP table or an SAP BW object. The SAP connection is an enterprise application connection. You can create and manage an SAP connection in the Administrator console or the Developer tool.

The order of the connection properties might vary depending on the tool where you view them.

The following table describes the SAP connection properties:

Property	Description
Username	Required. User name for the SAP source system that you want to access.
Password	Required. Password for the user name.
Connection type	Required. Type of connection that you want to create. Select one of the following values: Application. Create an application connection when you want to connect to a specific SAP application server. Load balancing. Create a load balancing connection when you want to use SAP load balancing. Default is Application. Based on the connection type you select, the corresponding connection property fields become available in the Connection Details dialog box. The Developer tool greys out the connection property fields that are not applicable for a particular connection type.
Host name	Required when you create an SAP application connection. Host name or IP address of the SAP server that you want to connect to.
System number	Required when you create an SAP application connection. SAP system number.
Message host name	Required when you create an SAP load balancing connection. Host name of the SAP message server.
R3 name/SysID	Required when you create an SAP load balancing connection. Name of the SAP system.
Group	Required when you create an SAP load balancing connection. Group name of the SAP application server.
Client	Required. SAP client number.
Language	Optional. Language that you want to use for mappings and workflows. Must be compatible with the Developer tool code page. If you leave this option blank, the Developer tool uses the default language of the SAP system.
Trace	Optional. Use this option to track the JCo calls that the SAP system makes. SAP stores the information about the JCo calls in a trace file. Specify one of the following values: 0. Off 1. Full Default is 0. You can access the trace files from the following directories: <Informatica installation directory>/tomcat/bin directory on the machine where you installed the Informatica services <Informatica installation directory>/clients/DeveloperClient directory on the machine where you installed the Developer tool
Additional parameters	Optional. Enter any other connection parameter that you want to use. Use the following format: <parameter name>=<value>
Staging directory	Path in the SAP system where the stage file will be created.
Source directory	Path that contains the source file. The path must be accessible to the Data Integration Service.
Use FTP	Enables FTP access to SAP.
FTP user	Required when you use FTP. User name to connect to the FTP server.
FTP password	Required when you use FTP. Password for the FTP user.
FTP host	Required when you use FTP. Host name or IP address of the FTP server. Optionally, you can specify a port number from 1 through 65535, inclusive. Default for FTP is 21. Use one of the following syntax to specify the host name: hostname:port_number IP address:port_number When you specify a port number, enable that port number for FTP on the host machine. If you enable SFTP, specify a host name or port number for an SFTP server. Default for SFTP is 22.
Retry period	Number of seconds that the Data Integration Service attempts to reconnect to the FTP host if the connection fails. If the Data Integration Service cannot reconnect to the FTP host in the retry period, the mapping or workflow fails. Default is 0. A value of 0 indicates an infinite retry period.
Use SFTP	Enables SFTP access to SAP.
Public key file name	Required when you enable SFTP and the SFTP server uses public key authentication. Public key file path and file name.
Private key file name	Required when you enable SFTP and the SFTP server uses public key authentication. Private key file path and file name.
Private key file name password	Required when you enable SFTP, and the SFTP server uses public key authentication and the private key is encrypted. Password to decrypt the private key file.
Port range for HTTP	HTTP port range that the Data Integration Service must use to read data from the SAP server in streaming mode. Enter the minimum and maximum port numbers with a hyphen as the separator. The minimum and maximum port number can range between 10000 and 65535. You can also specify the port range according to your organization. Default is 10000-65535.
