Set Available Connections at the Process Template Level

A Process Designer can reuse a process template by adding connections to load programs for multiple target systems to a single process template. Data can then be posted to these target systems sequentially.

Refer to Post Data to Multiple Target Systems with One Process Template for general information.

Before performing this task, add a template and add a process.

The steps to add a template and process are different for each template type. Refer to the sections specific to the template type for more information:

• Post Data with a BDC Script

• Post Data Using a GUI Script

• Post Data Using a BAPI

• Post Using RFC Execution

• Create and Transfer Files for User Defined Fixed Width or Delimited Templates

• Create and Transfer XML Files

• Post Data Using an SAP Data Services Job

• Post Data Using IG Universal Connect

NOTE: The process must be inactive to add a connection.

To set available connections at the process template level in Integrate:

1. Click Categories in the Navigation pane.
2. Click the Processes icon for a category.
3. Click the Templates icon for a process.
4. Click the Allowed Connections icon for the automatically created process template.

5. Note the connection in the CONNECTION ID field.

   NOTE: One record, the connection that was added to the template on the Template page, displays as the default connection. Additional connections can be added to this process template, however, the default connection is used when posting. The connection can be edited at the process post level.

6. Navigate back to the Process Templates page.

7. Click Add.

   View the field descriptions for the Process Templates page.

8. Enter a number in the PRIORITY field.
9. Select the same template as the one in the first process template from the TEMPLATE ID list box.
10. Click Save.
11. Click the Allowed Connections icon for the second process template.
12. Select the connection to the second target system from the CONNECTION ID list box.
13. Click Save.

14. Click the Set Default icon in the Page toolbar.

    NOTE: Additional connections can be added, but only one default connection is allowed.

15. Navigate back to the Process Templates page.
16. Click the ACTIVATE/DEACTIVATE icon for the process on the Process page.

Continue with editing connections to target systems at the process post level (if needed).
