Setting System Type-Specific Properties for the Subsidiary SAP Business One System(s) in SAP Integration Framework 2.0 for Master Data Distribution in SAP S/4 HANA

Setting System Type-Specific Properties for the Subsidiary SAP Business One System(s) in SAP Integration Framework 2.0 for Master Data Distribution in SAP S/4 HANA

Maintain SysID-specific properties for each subsidiary in the system landscape. System ID-specific properties are available per system type. When you create a system landscape entry, this entry gets a unique system ID (SysID). You can maintain fixed values for properties for the SysID. 

SAP Integration Framework 2.0 accesses the properties at runtime and uses them for message processing, for example, for automatically defaults setting, option selection, and so on. 

All scenario packages that use the systems as senders or receivers, can access the SysID-specific properties.

From a business point of view, the aim of using the SysID-specific properties is to place the subsidiary in the company organization environment. In the large account environment, the settings represent the organizational entity of the subsidiary from the headquarters’ point of view. The settings describe the subsidiary with SAP S/4 HANA organization units. For example, the subsidiary represents the sales channel for the headquarters’ products in a foreign country. 

Prerequisites
