Setup Guide

This guide walks you through getting necessary details from the SAP Business One so that the connector can authenticate and communicate with the SAP Business One.

Prerequisites​

  • An SAP Business One installation with the Service Layer component enabled
  • A user account with permission to access the company database

Enable and locate the Service Layer​

The connector communicates with SAP Business One through the Service Layer, an OData-based HTTP API. Ensure the Service Layer component is installed and running as part of your SAP Business One server deployment.

The Service Layer endpoint follows the pattern https://<host>:50000/b1s/v1, where <host> is the address of your SAP Business One server.

note

The Service Layer typically listens on port 50000 over HTTPS. Confirm the host and port with your system administrator if you are unsure.

Obtain the connection credentials​

To connect, you need three values from the SAP Business One desktop client's login screen: the company database, your user name, and your password.

Click the company name at the top of the SAP Business One desktop application, or contact your administrator, to view the Choose Company window.

tip

Record the Database (company database), User ID, and Password shown on this screen. These map directly to the session credentials the connector requires.
