Modifying SAP Connections

FlexNet Manager Suite 2019 R1 (On-Premises Edition)

SAP system connections are identified based on their system ID, client ID, and the SAP system landscape of the SAP system. Modifications to an SAP system connection on an inventory beacon are automatically sent to FlexNet Manager Suite where a new SAP system is created.

Important: Changes to the SAP suite type of existing SAP system connections are not automatically sent to FlexNet Manager Suite and must be manually adjusted on the FlexNet Manager SAP System page. See Synchronizing a System Landscape in the SAP Admin Module with FlexNet Manager Suitein the FlexNet Manager for SAP Applications 2019 R1 User Guide.

7. Click Save.
