The Motivation for Automating SAP Login
Many of us would be working on several SAP systems on any day. If you're tired of entering the username and password in every SAP system you enter, this document will help you by automating the entrance to SAP landscapes by skipping the logon screen using a simple GuiXT script. GuiXt is based on a simple scripting language.
From version 4.x GuiXT is included with SapGui free of charge. For earlier versions we would have to procure it from Synactive.
Steps to be followed-
- Activate GuiXT by navigating to Customize Local Layout (
) and selecting Activate GuiXT.
2. Navigate to C Drive and create a folder and name it – GuiXT
3. Create a subfolder and name it – Scripts
4. Now create a report program with code-
*External files : None
*SAP Release : SAP ECC 6.0
*DESCRIPTION: Program to download Logon script for auto-sign in
REPORT ZAJ_GUIXT no STANDARD PAGE HEADING.

ENDIF. 5. Execute the code to generate the Logon script.
Note: If your Login script was generated successfully, you should get this message-
Note: You need to do this 'One-Time' task to set the Profile in GuiXT-
6. Launch GuiXT using the command- 'GUIXT.EXE VISIBLE' as shown-
7. Navigate to Profiles Screen and Provide the path as shown-
8. Your Screen should like below. If not, make necessary changes. The
highlighted areas are important. Finally Click on OK.
9. When you have verified/ changed the GuiXT Profile settings, click OK. In the
following pop-up, select Yes. Upon clicking Yes, the window will be closed.
Now its time to test it!
Launch your Landscape to see it open!
Note: Execute the report program to 'Add' multiple instances of the Landscape.
If you think this is cumbersome, you may change the Path (here- c:\guixt\scripts) to your shared drive and later change the GuiXT Profile accordingly.
