Creating a Logical System

Depending on your current SAP environment, you might not need to create a logical system. You might only need to modify an existing Distribution Model by adding the HRMD_ A message type to a previously configured Model View. It is important, however, that you follow SAP’s recommendations for logical systems and configuring your ALE network. The following instructions assume that you are creating new logical systems and a new model view.

Creating a Logical System and New Model View

1. Enter transaction code SPRO, then display the SAP Reference IMGproject (or the project applicable to your organization).

2. Based on the SAP version you are using, perform one of the following:

   • For SAP HR 4.6, click Basic Components > Application Link Enabling (ALE) > Sending and Receiving Systems > Logical Systems > Define Logical System.

     • For SAP HR 4.7, click SAP Web Application Server, > Application Link Enabling (ALE) > Sending and Receiving Systems > Logical Systems > Define Logical System.

     • For SAP HR 5.0, click SAP Netweaver > SAP Web Application Server > IDOC Interface/Application Link Enabling (ALE) > Basic Settings > Logical Systems > Define Logical System.

     • For SAP HR 6.0, click SAP Netweaver > Web Application Server > IDOC Interface/Application Link Enabling (ALE) > Basic Settings > Logical Systems > Define Logical System.

3. Click Edit > New Entries.

4. Enter a name and a description for the logical system you want to create (IDMGR).

5. Save your entry.
