Import of transports step by step

For each component mentioned above, you must:

Copy transports into a transport directory of a target SAP system.

_{Transport Management System}
Select the target system
_{Target system selection}
Add the particular transports via the menu Extras -> Other Request -> Add
_{Transport selection}
Select the desired transport and import it by clicking the icon
Access the SNP Glue™ Cockpit by entering the transaction /DVD/GLUE in the target system

In case you want to extract the data from multiple clients, the transports must be imported to all the relevant ones.

License installation

Within the first run, the license must be installed. The license for SNP Glue™ is either time-bound and expires after a certain time period, or is unlimited (until 31.12.9999). As the license is bound to a system, every new system with installed SNP Glue™ requires a new license.

SNP Glue™ license installation

In SNP Glue™ Cockpit, click on License-> License

A new dialog appears. Here you enter all license information. If you do not possess a license, please contact our Support team.

Special content (ERP)

Note

Please note that this step is valid for ERP systems only.

After you complete the previous steps and SNP Glue™ is successfully installed, it is necessary to execute the report '/DVD/GL_BPL_SPKFL_CONTENT_GEN' and the '/DVD/GL_DD_SPKFL_CONTENT_GEN' which generates content for the special functionality called Meaningful values. For more information on how to use or set up this functionality, please see the chapter SNP Glue™ User Guide.
