Creating a Connection The first time you log in from any computer, you must configure your connection.

Once youve done this, your connection will appear in the list. However, if you try to work from another computer, you will need to create the connection on that machine as well. There are different settings to connect from on-campus and from off-campus. Be sure to use the proper settings. If you wish to be able to connect from both on and off- campus, you will need to create two connections. In other words, you will have to follow these steps twice once to create an on-campus connection and again to create the off-campus connection. (Note: You must create the off-campus connection from off campus and you must activate your IP address first.) To create your connection, first, be sure that you are connected to the internet. Then, follow the steps below:

1) Double-click on the SAP GUI icon to open the SAP GUI.

2) Click the Add New Connection button on the toolbar.

3) On the first screen of the Create New System Entry wizard, dont make any changes; Just click the Next button.

On the second screen of the Create New System Entry wizard, enter the following information. Be sure to use the correct Description and SAP router depending on whether you are creating a connection for on-campus or off-campus access. Connection Type: Description: System ID: Message Server: SAP Router: Group/Server Selection On-Campus GBI R05 r05z /H/saprouter.hcc.uni-magdeburg.de/S/3299/H/ /H/remote.hcc.uni-magdeburg.de/S/3299/H/ (for on-campus) (for off-campus) (or Off-Campus GBI)

4) After entering the SAP Router, click in the textbox for the Group/Server. Wait a minute while the system tries to connect to the server. Once it connects, enter the following information: Group/Server: Instance Number: 5) Click Next. UCC_Logon 05 (should be set automatically)

6) On the third screen of the Create New System Entry wizard, dont make any changes; Just click the Next button.

7) On the fourth screen of the Create New System Entry wizard, dont make any changes; Just click the Finish button.

8) You should now see your connection listed in the SAP GUI. If you wish to be able to work from off-campus, go back to the beginning and create another connection using the settings for an off-campus (remote) connection. 9) Your system is now configured to connect to the server in Germany.
