Activities

To export the BW certificate from the BW system, complete the following steps:

  1. Run transaction STRUSTSSO2 (Trust Manager for Single Sign-On with Logon Ticket).
  2. Select your own certificate. This is located in the Own Certificate field under System PSE.. To display the certificate, double-click the field value.

    If your own certificate is not available, generate a certificate by choosing Create in the context menu for system PSE and distribute it to all BW system application servers by choosing PSE -> Distribute All. There may be a time delay when distributing the certificate. If necessary, check again whether the certificate has been successfully distributed.

  3. Choose Certificate -> Export.
  4. Enter the file path <BW_SID>_certificate.crt (<BW_SID> is the system ID of the BW system).
  5. Choose Binary as the file format.

File <SID>_certificate.crt is used for the settings in the portal in the Import BW Certificate step.
