Prerequisites

Installing UiPath® SAP AddOn for Heatmap

To start using the Heatmap and Change impact analysis, you need to install the UiPath SAP AddOn. The SAP AddOn installation file contains two folders:

• For SAP S/4HANA: The folder contains packages for standard SAP S/4HANA, and a specific package for SAP CAR (SAP Customer Activity Repository).
• For SAP ECC: The folder contains packages for the following supported SAP Netweaver Kernel Versions:
  • 7.40
  • 7.50

In each folder you can find a UiPath AddOn as a SAP Transport Request which you import into your SAP system: one for Heatmap, and one for Change impact analysis.

Steps

1. Download the file and install it on your SAP system.
2. Assign the S_RFCACL authorization object to the SAP communication user.
3. Reach out to your SAP System Administrator to install the UiPath® SAP AddOn and verify the authorization.

Installation scenarios

There are three installation scenarios that you can deploy:

1. If you want to use the Heatmap, and you have a direct connection to your SAP instance, you must import the SAP Transport Request for Heatmap into your SAP system.
2. If you want to use the Heatmap, but you don't have a direct connection to your SAP instance, and you want to connect using the CSV file, you must install UiPath custom program.
3. If you want to use both Heatmap and Change impact analysis, you must import both SAP Transport Requests into your SAP system.

Note: All objects from the installation transports are imported into a separate namespace, called /UIPATH/

Installation overview steps

To generate the Heatmap for your SAP system, perform the main following steps:
