In addition to the Certificate Toolkit Guide, also the Administration Guide might contain useful instructions for importing & using certificates in the SAP BC.
ulrich.schmidt, thank you for updating the links. Is Business Connector even still supported? Seven years ago when I responded to this, we were still using it ourselves, but we haven't used it now for a good few years, with all functions having migrated into PI-AEX.
matt.fraser Sure, SAP BC is still alive and kicking...!
A new release has been shipped in 2021, currently supported until 2027. I know, there have often been rumors about its "end of life" (the first one in 2002... 🙂 ), but whenever that date approached, some important customers, DSAG or ASUG intervened and applied "soft pressure" on SAP and forced another support extension or even an updated version. And I expect this will continue in the future. For many integration tasks, SAP BC is simply the best tool available! Lightweight, highly performant, and with a huge set of functionality (RFC, IDoc, EDI formats, HTTP, FTP, SMTP, IMAP, POP3, MIME, various XML formats, WebService, JDBC, data conversions like zip, encryption, digital signature, BASE64, HTML parser, etc. etc.) And if it doesn't support an operation you need, it provides an easy Java/C++ interface, so you can plug it in yourself... (Or even easier, plug in an open source library, that provides the required operation... I have already done this, when I needed to process JSon data.)
