SAP_COM_0466

This document describes the configuration steps that have to be carried out by customers to set up the integration between SAP BTP ABAP environment and local printers using SAP_COM_0466.

Purpose

The communication scenario SAP_COM_0466 enables you to print from an system on your locally installed printers. The communication scenario is designed to connect the SAP Cloud Print Manager for Pull Integration and third-party output management systems (OMS). OMS provide you with more refined printing functionalities.

Note:

The term 'OMS' will stand for both an OMS as well as the SAP Cloud Print Manager for Pull Integration for the remainder of this document.

Prerequisites

  • You've installed an OMS.

  • You have the following business role assigned to your user:

    • SAP_BR_ADMINISTRATOR

  • This business role contains the following business catalogs:

    • Communication Management (SAP_CORE_BC_COM)

    • Output Management (SAP_CORE_BC_OM_PRT)

Process Steps

(SAP BTP ABAP environment)

  1. Log in to your system and navigate to the Display Communication Scenariosapp.

  2. Search for scenario ID SAP_COM_0466 and click on it.

  3. Now click on Create Communication Arrangement in the top right corner.

  4. Choose a name for your communication arrangement and click Create.

  5. You will now need to create a communication system. You can do this by clicking New next to the field Communication System. For more information on general concepts of communication management, see Communication Management.

  6. Choose a new System ID and click Create.

    Note:

    The System Name is filled in automatically with the same name as the ID. We recommend leaving this as it is to prevent confusion.

  7. In the General section, mark the Inbound Only checkbox.

  8. Now scroll down to Users for Inbound Communication and click "+" to add a new communication user.

  9. Click on New User. Enter a username and a description. You can then choose to either enter a new password or upload a client certificate by clicking on Upload. Click Create to save the user, then click OK.

  10. Save your communication system by clicking Save on the bottom right, then save your communication arrangement the same way.

  11. Now search for the Maintain Print Queues app, open it and select New to create a print queue of the type Pull Integration Queue.

    Note:

    The selection of the print queue type is only possible if more types are available. If this is not the case, Pull Integration is automatically selected. In case more options are available, it is important to select the Pull Integration queue type for the scenario. You won't see the print queue in your OMS system if you choose the wrong queue type.

  12. Enter a name and description for the queue. Choose a format and make sure to select the name you chose for your communication arrangement in step 3. Leave the other settings as they are and save your test queue by clicking Create.

  13. Scroll to the bottom of the print queue list window and select System URL. Copy the URL, as you'll need it later on.

  14. Open the print queue and create a couple of test pages by clicking Create Test Page. They'll have the status New.

  15. (OMS): Open your OMS and log in to the SAP BTP ABAP environment system by using the system URL you copied in step 13 as well as the user and password created in step 8 and assign a physical printer to your print queue. Now you can print the test pages from your OMS. For details, please refer to the individual product documentation.

  16. (SAP Cloud Print Manager for Pull Integration): For more information on how to configure your SAP Cloud Print Manager for Pull Integration, see Communication Management.

  17. (SAP BTP ABAP environment): In the Maintain Print Queues app, your documents will now be labeled Successful.
