WebSphere Adapter for SAP Software

Generating artifacts

To generate the module, which is the artifact that is deployed on WebSphere® Process Server or WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus, you create the module, include the adapter in the module, and specify an alias used to authenticate the caller to the SAP server.

Before you begin

Make sure you have configured the business object. The Generate Artifacts window should be displayed.

About this task

To generate the module, use the following procedure.

  1. In the Generate Artifacts window, create a new module.
    1. Click New.
    2. Click Create a module project and click Next.
