SOAMANAGER Configuration for CATS Web Services

This blog was created since then many of the screens have changed and in our scenario some detail was missing.  It should be used in conjunction with SAP's wiki if you need to view the detail of the updated screens.

Major Steps:

1. Enable Services (SICF)
2. Create the WSDL_USER
   
3. Create Business System in SLD
4. Set the Business System up in SOAMANAGER
5. Configure Web Services Runtime
6. Create the Time Agreement Binding Service for Service Definition EETMEAGR_PWTP_EE_QR
7. Create the Logical Port for the Consumer Proxy CO_CATSEMPLOYEE_TIME_AGREEMENT
8. Create the Time Calendar Binding Service for Service Definition EETMECAL_WTS_EE_QR
9. Create the Logical Port for the Consumer Proxy CO_CATS_EMPLOYEE_TIME_CALENDAR

Detailed Steps:

4	Note: A unique ID for the instance, as determined by CIM_System. This name is entered by the user and must be unique in the system landscape. The character set is restricted to alphanumeric characters plus underscores. To enable merges of different system landscapes, we recommend that you use a domain prefix. The prefix is derived from your Internet domain: www.sap.com -> prefix = "com_sap_" Maximum length: 256 Note: Below is an example only, using the logical system seems like a good idea since we have multiple clients in each system
