SAP S/4HANA Cloud Production Tenant

This section includes necessary information for using the plug-in against a SAP S/4HANA Cloud Production tenant. Prior to the tenant being used, required configuration is needed in the tenant.

For configuring the Production tenant and invoking services in SAP S/4HANA Cloud tenant, refer to Communication Management in SAP S/4HANA Cloud documentation.

Note: For each API that is planned to be used with the plug-in, make sure the Communication Arrangement is configured accordingly. For more information, see SAP S/4HANA Cloud documentation.
Note: For invoking services in SAP S/4HANA Cloud, the product tenant supports basic authentication, SSL and OAuth 2.0. For enabling OAuth 2.0 configuration, configure the Technical Communication User and Business User accordingly.
Note: When using SSL client certificate authentication, ensure that the root CA that signs the certificate is registered in SAP Load Balancer.
Note: When using SSL client certificate authentication, ensure that you use the root CA available in the list of all root CAs approved by SAP Global Security and is available in SAP Note 2801396 (SAP Global Trust List).
Note: When using SSL client certificate authentication, ensure that you import your certificate and its chain (intermediate certificate) together into the keystore alias that has your private key.

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Business Events

To use the Receive Business Events activity, the SAP S/4HANA OData V2 API 'Business Events Queue - Read' must be configured with the communication user specified in the SAP S/4HANA Cloud Connection shared resource.
