Accessing SAP using an iPad is a breeze with the app SAPPLAPP. Setup is very quick and easy with nearly full functionality available to the user. I have an SAP IDES ECC 6 system that I access with the iPad and iPhone.<\/p>\n

The caveat is that the ITS-Server is installed and running. If you are running ECC 6, the ITS-Server was delivered with the SAP installation. The developer website lists two SAP Notes that may be helpful. I have links to both below.
\nSAP Note 517484
\nSAP Note 698329<\/p>\n

Basically, on the network where you access SAP through the SAP GUI, try accessing http:\/\/:\/sap\/bc\/gui\/sap\/its\/webgui. The host is the server name you find in your SAP GUI setup and the port is most likely 8000.<\/p>\n

The instructions below work the same on the iPad and the iPhone. Obviously, the iPad is much easier on the eyes.<\/p>\n

1. Launch the application.
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

2. At the SAP list screen, simply click the plus ‘+’ sign in the upper right hand corner to create a new SAP server connection.
\n\"sapplapp<\/a><\/p>\n

3. Enter the SAP server information and save.
\n\"SAP<\/a><\/p>\n

4. Now, just tap the SAP Server you want to connect with and you’ll be brought to the main SAP menu.
\n\"SAP<\/a><\/p>\n

I have found the app to be very useful, especially when I have needed to take a quick look at something. I look forward to when iPhone OS 4.0 arrives with multitasking and Juniper SSL VPN. With that combination I should be able to access every client from the iPad or iPhone.<\/p>\n

For further information, take a look at the developer<\/a> website.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
