Configuration: MSS (WDA) in SAP NetWeaver Business Client

You use this function to make the settings required to use the role Manager Self-Service in SAP NetWeaver Business Client (NWBC).

Integration
Depending on the system landscape used, Manager Self-Service in SAP NetWeaver Business Client requires individual applications or reports from remote systems. This is the case in particular with reports (system aliasSAP_BW,), where you have to create system connections. For more information, see SAP NetWeaver Library and choose Remote Systems. In most cases, the name of the system connection matches the name of the system alias, but specific connection attributes can be attached (_RFC, _HTTP, _HTTPS). For most of the ERP roles for NWBC, the connection type is H. The role Manager Self-Service contains the following system aliases: SAP_EREC_TALENTMANAGEMENT SAP_ECC_Financials
