Transfer model links to SAPĀ® Solution Manager

You can provide model links in SAP® Solution Manager for models to be opened in ARIS Connect. If you still use ARIS Publisher, models from exports can be provided as well.

Prerequisites

Procedure ARIS Connect

  1. Log in to the database managing the desired SAP content.
  2. Start SAP® synchronization. The Synchronization Wizard opens.
  3. On the Select options wizard page, enable the Transfer data to SAP® Solution Manager option.
  4. Navigate to the Transfer documentation wizard page.
  5. Enable the Transfer links check box.
  6. Activate the ARIS Connect option button.
  7. Select the document types to be assigned.
  8. If required, specify additional settings and click Finish.

The synchronization starts and the model links are transferred.

The models can be opened in SAP® Solution Manager using the ARIS model link. You cannot start executables from these models. You can start executables from the executables table in the step view in ARIS Connect.

Use the same procedure to delete model links from SAP® Solution Manager. On the Transfer documentation wizard page, enable the Remove links check box.

Procedure ARIS Publisher

  1. Log in to the database from which a Publisher export was created.
  2. Right-click a model in the Navigation bar and select Properties.
  3. Click Information on the Selection tab.
  4. Select the entry in the GUID box, and press the CTRL+C keyboard shortcut. The model GUID is copied to the clipboard.
  5. Start SAP® synchronization in the same database. The Synchronization Wizard opens.
  6. On the Select project options wizard page, enable the Transfer data to SAP® Solution Manager option.
  7. On the Transfer documentation wizard page, enable the Transfer links check box.

    In the URL box, enter the URL for the Publisher export using the following syntax:

    http://<ARIS Publisher Server>/<Port>/<ARIS Publisher context>link.do?<profileid><login><password><localeid>, for example, http://pcrkl:9090/businesspublisher/link.do?profileid=262166&login=anonymous&password=anonymous&localeid=1031&modelguid=

    The URL can be obtained from your administrator.

    Entries are overwritten with this URL in SAP® Solution Manager.

  8. Click in the GUID box and press the CTRL+V keyboard shortcut. The GUID previously copied is pasted.
  9. Click Test. The model is opened from the corresponding export.
  10. Select the tab on which the model links are to be specified in SAP® Solution Manager.
  11. Select the document types to be assigned.
  12. If required, specify additional settings and click Finish.

The synchronization starts and the model links are transferred.

The models can be opened in SAP® Solution Manager using the ARIS model link on the selected tab. You cannot run executables from these models. Run them directly from your SAP® system.

To delete model links from SAP® Solution Manager, the same procedure is used. On the Transfer documentation wizard page, enable the Remove links check box.

Warning

If you delete Publisher links, all links of this type are deleted in the SAP system that contain the specified part of the URL. If you only enter http:// all links will be deleted in the SAP system.
