Siebel Connector for SAP R/3 > Installation and Configuration >

SAP Code Page Configuration


As of Siebel 7.5, all Siebel components use Unicode internally. Therefore, all SAP code page data interfaced to Siebel applications must be converted to and from Unicode by Siebel Connector for SAP R/3. This may require some additional configuration. The BAPI Adapter and BAPI Receiver do not need any special configuration, however, you must make configuration changes for Siebel Tools and for MQSeries.

Table 11 shows the SAP code page mappings delivered with Siebel 7.7. These are configured in the EAI Value Map SAP code page. The EAI Value Maps can be accessed by navigating to Integration Administration > EAI Value Maps and querying for SAP code page in the Type field. The list of possible Siebel code page values is in the Transcode Encoding picklist. The EAI Value Maps values can be modified if required.

Occasionally, the ISO code page will not match the Microsoft code page. The behavior of the SAP Connector in such cases is described in SAP Code Page Mappings.
