20Setting Up Basic Authentication to ADS in an ABAP
Environment
If forms processing is triggered by ABAP-based applications, you
need to establish a connection between the Forms Processing
Framework (ABAP) and the ADS running on AS Java. You also need to
set up Basic Authentication for this connection .
Procedure
1. Log on to your SAP NetWeaver AS ABAP central instance
host.
2. Call transaction SM59.
3. ChooseCreate.
4. Enter at least the following:
RFC destination:ADS
Connection type:G
Description
5. ChooseENTER.
6. Choose theTechnical settingstab and enter at least the
following:

26Creating the Service User for Communication with ADS
For the communication between the AS ABAP and the ADS running on
AS Java the service userADS_AGENTis required.
You need to specify this service user in the authentication
parameters of the Destination service in the AS Java that hosts the
Adobe Document Services (ADS).
Procedure
1. Log on to the AS ABAP and start the transactionSU01(User
Management).
NOTE
You must specify this client in the Destination service.
2. In theUserfield, enterADS_AGENTand chooseUserCreate.
3. Choose theLogon datatab and assign a password.
NOTE
You must specify this password in the Destination service.
4. Choose the user typeService.
5. Choose theRoletab and assign a role to the userADS_AGENTas
follows:
If AS ABAP and AS Java (with ADS) are installed on the same
server (double-stack installation or AS ABAP with Java hub), assign
the roleSAP_BC_FP_ICF.
.
If AS ABAP and AS Java (with ADS) are installed on different
servers, assign the roleSAP_BC_FPADS_ICF.
NOTE
This distinction is for performance reasons. You may copy the
required role first.

29Creating the Destination Service for Communication with
ADS
This procedure applies to forms processing in an ABAP
environment. The Destination service runs on the AS Java, where the
Adobe Document Services (ADS) are installed and serves to
facilitate communication and data transmission between the ABAP and
the Java environment. The communication between the Destination
service and the AS ABAP is enabled by the Internet Communication
Framework (ICF).
In a double-stack system (ABAP and Java installed on the same
system), the Destination service is configured for basic
authentication, when you execute the configuration tool. You need
to change or create these settings in the following cases:
AS ABAP and AS Java are installed on separate servers.
You want to use SSL.
The service userADS_AGENTin the AS ABAP is not in the default
client.
Prerequisites
The ICF service on the AS ABAP is active.
More information:Activating the ICF Service
The service userADS_AGENTexists and is assigned to the
appropriate role.

Procedure
1. Start the SAP NetWeaver Administrator via the
addresshttp://:/nwa.
2. ChooseConfiguration ManagementSecurity

3. ChooseCreate.
4. Enter theDestination nameFP_ICF_DATA_, whereis your ABAP
system, and chooseHTTPfor theDestination Type.PressNext.
5. UnderConnection, enter the message server (or Web Dispatcher)
of the SAP NetWeaver AS ABAP in theURLfield:
http://:
and in case of SSL,
https://:
NOTE
To display the host name of your AS ABAP, log on to AS ABAP and
call transactionSICF. In the main menu, chooseGotoPort Information.
The information is displayed on a screen; where the HTTP_port is
specified underServices.
6. Enter the appropriate client number of the system, where the
service user ADS_AGENT exists into theClientfield. Keep the
fieldsSystemIDandLanguageempty.
7. UnderSSL Server Certificates, chooseIgnore server
certificatesand pressNext.
8. UnderLogon DataAuthentication,chooseBasic.
9. In theUsernamefield, enterADS_AGENT, and enter the same
password as given for this user in the AS ABAP in
thePasswordfield.
10. ChooseFinish.
11. Check the settings of the Destination service.
More information:Checking the Destination Service and the ICF
Service.
30Activating the ICF Service
The communication between the Destination service of the AS Java
and the AS ABAP uses the Internet Communication Framework (ICF). If
the ICF service has not been activated automatically by the
configuration tool, you can activate it manually.
Procedure
1. Log on to the AS ABAP.
2. Start the transactionSICF.
3. Choosedefault_hostsapbcfp.
4. ChooseService/Virt.HostActivate.
5. If AS ABAP and AS Java (with ADS) are installed in different
servers and you want to bundle your forms to improve performance,
also activate thefpadsICF service.

43Checking the Destination Service and the ICF Service
Use the first of the following tests for checking the settings
of the destination service. If you receive any error messages,
continue with the further tests listed below.
Prerequisites
You have already checked theABAP connection.
Checking the Destination Service using a test report in AS
ABAP
Using this test you can check if the complete configuration of
the destination service and the ICF service is correct.
1. Log on to your SAP NetWeaver AS ABAP system.
2. Call transaction SA38.
3. Enter the name of the test report
FP_CHECK_DESTINATION_SERVICE.
4. Execute the test without choosing the optionWith Destination
Service.
5. The system renders a test form in the background without
using the destination service and displays the size of the created
PDF.
6. Execute the test again. Now select the optionWith Destination
Service.
7. If the settings of the destination service are correct, the
system displays the same message as before (see step 5).
Checking the ICF Service using the Web Browser
1. In your Web browser enter the URL
http://:/sap/bc/fp/form/layout/fp_test_00.xdp
whereis the server that hosts the AS ABAP andis the http port of
the AS ABAP.
2. In the dialog box enterADS_AGENTas user and the password you
have specified for it.
3. If the settings of the ICF service are correct, the system
displays the layout information of the form FP_TEST_00 in XML
format.
Checking the Destination Service using the SAP NetWeaver
Administrator
Using this test you can check if the settings for the
destination service are correct.
1. Start the SAP NetWeaver Administrator and navigate
toDestinationsas described inCreating or Changing the Destination
Service.
2. Choose the destination and extend theURLyou specified
inDestination DetailConnection and
Transporttohttp://:/sap/bc/fp/form/layout/fp_test_00.xdp
CAUTION
Specify the URL exactly as given, otherwise the connection
cannot be tested and you receive the error messageError during Ping
operation: Received HTTP response 404.
3. ChoosePing Destination
4. The system sends a call to the ABAP system where the form
layout is stored. If the settings are correct, the system displays
the messageHTTP GET response code 200 Content type text/xml.
5. Change the URL back tohttp://: for the Destination Service to
work properly.
Further Checks
If the settings of the destination service are not correct, you
get an error message. You need to perform further checks:
1. Check if theICF serviceis active.
2. Check if the system userADS_AGENTis correctly configured.
3. Check the settings of theDestination Service.
