Creating and Configuring an Adapter Configuration

After creating a project, you have to create and configure an adapter configuration to store all the configuration information.

Prerequisites

Ensure that you have created a project as described in Creating a Project.

Procedure

  1. Right-click the project that you have created and click New > Other to open the New wizard.
  2. In the "Select a wizard" dialog, select TIBCO Adapters > Adapter for SAP > Adapter for SAP Configuration, and click then Next.
  3. In the Create new Adapter for SAP Configuration dialog, if you do not want to use the default file name for the adapter configuration, enter a new name in the File name field.

    An adapter configuration is created in the project. The Adapter Configurations, AESchemas and R3Connections folders are also created automatically in the project.
