RFC connection
To create an integration between your Test Manager project and your SAP system to collect data periodically, using an RFC connection to your SAP system, follow these steps:
- Open your project in Test Manager, and go to Project Settings > Integration.
- Select SAP from the New
Connection dropdown.
The Edit connection dialog pops up.
- Fill in the fields according to the
data from your SAP system:
- Name - name the integration between Test Manager and SAP.
- Description - describe the integration between Test Manager and SAP.
- From Data Source select
Connect to SAP instance with RFC:
- Application Server—IP
address or URL that your SAP system is working on.
For example, a URL can have the following format:
mysapserver.com. - System name—three-letter SAP system ID.
- Instance Number—SAP system number.
- Client—SAP client to log into.
- User—SAP user name.
- Password—SAP password.
- Polling Interval—time interval when data is brought from the SAP system. The minimum value for this is one hour.

- Application Server—IP
address or URL that your SAP system is working on.
- After you finish the configuration of the integration, select Save.
- Refresh your project. The Heatmap page appears in the left-hand menu of your Test Manager project.
After you set up RFC connection, choose how to enable Change Impact Analysis, and define which SAP system it connects to:
- Open your existent SAP connection, or select SAP from the New Connection dropdown list.
- Select Change Impact Analysis connection.
- Under Impact Analysis Access
select the view tabs corresponding to SAP change types that you want to display in
your Change Impact Analysis:
- UI: Selected by default, displays transactions impacted by the selected transports.
- API: Displays the technical interfaces impacted by the selected transports, such as SAP BAPI, SAP RFC, SAP QUERY, and SAP IDOC.
- Security: Displays security transactions and corresponding users impacted by the selected transports.
-
Under Connection Source select one of the following:
- Same as Heatmap: Keep
the same SAP connection details that you are using for the Heatmap.
This means both functionalities will collect data from the same SAP system.
- New connection: Create
a separate SAP connection for Change Impact Analysis. This option
allows you to use different authentication details while maintaining the
same connection type as the Heatmap.
Note: We recommend you to connect the Heatmap to your production system and Change Impact Analysis to your quality system for optimal risk evaluation.
Follow the same steps as above, for creating a web service connection.
- If your Heatmap connection
uses a CSV file:
You must create a new connection for Change Impact Analysis.
Follow the same steps for creating either an RFC or web service connection.
- Same as Heatmap: Keep
the same SAP connection details that you are using for the Heatmap.
