Open the node ABAP Connections and create a new RFC connection for our application like below.
And provide required information as below.
And we will get a entry like below under node ABAP connection.
Now execute the t-code : spro and do the below configuration.
And make a entry like below for gateway hub connection.
To manage SAP system alias we have to execute below option of spro.
And we will make an entry like below.
And now execute t-code : sicf and make sure all the below node should be in active status.
Path : default_host -> sap -> opu
Now we are ready to create our first OData.
Step 2: Execute the t-code : segw and we will get screen like below.
Now press the create button to create our first project. And Provide required information.
Now our first project is created as below.
Step 3: Now we have to import our RFC as below.
In the wizard provide the below details:
