ARIS and SAP Solution Manager 7.2 communicate via HTTP access. Therefore, the requirements must be met in the SAP system. In general, the system no longer requires transport requests. SAP® JCo is only required for ARIS Designer or ARIS Designer if you want to run executables.
The transport request for synchronization and sapjco3.jar on the server side are needed only for data migration. For details, see Migrating SAP Solution Manager 7.1 projects. You can open or download documents and the Technical Help from the Documentation Web site. Documentation is also contained in the ARIS installation package that is available in the ARIS Download Center.
If you want to provide ARIS for SAP features, you must configure them regardless of the SAP Solution Manager version that you use.
If you want to use ARIS Advanced Architect, you must provide the SAP® Java Connector (sapjco3.jar) to run executables, and provide ARIS Connector for SAP Solutions to allow data transfer between ARIS and SAP systems.
