| Authentication method |
Select the authentication method to use for connecting to SAP
S/4HANA. Two options are available:
- Regular: Uses standard
username and password authentication.
- Key Vault: Uses credentials
stored securely in a key vault for enhanced
security.
|
| When regular authentication method
is used, configure the following fields |
| Username |
Specifies the SAP user account used for authentication. The
account must have sufficient authorizations to access required
metadata objects within SAP S/4HANA. |
| Password |
Specifies the password associated with the SAP user account.
The password is securely stored and used during connection
validation and metadata extraction |
| Processing environment for
cataloging |
Specifies the logical scope used for metadata discovery in
SAP S/4HANA. The available options include
Application Component and
Package, and the selected option
determines how SAP objects are grouped and extracted.
- Application Component: When
Application Component is selected, metadata is
discovered and organized based on SAP application
component hierarchies. This approach groups objects
according to functional business modules and aligns
cataloging with SAP’s functional structure.
- Package: When Package is
selected, metadata is extracted and structured based on
SAP development packages. Packages group technical
objects according to development and transport
organization, enabling cataloging at the technical
object level.
