System: BEP

Transaction SSO2

To configure SSO by installing the system certificates, go to transaction SSO2

  • Destination: Give RFC destination: ECCCLNT001

  • Host name: DNS name of backend (BEP): nwecc.tobias.de
  • Instance Number: Instance number of backend (BEP): 01

Run the program. In case the tool finds some problems, it allows you to let it solve them for you.
