client ID in Anonymous logon data in SICF

[Former Member]

Hi all, I have a question on client ID field in Anonymous logon data section in Service Data of SICF. My questions are:

1. If we have many clients in development and I want to use a specific client, I normally put the client ID value, however, in some cases, we don't put values there and wondering what client it is using by default, is there any section in SICF where I can see where is the default client ID coming from?

2. When we want to migrate our BSP apps from DEV to QAS, and in QAS we want to use a specific client, can we still do a maintenance in SICF? I guess this question is somehow related to my question above (item 1). Anyway, if I can get answer on question 1 maybe question 2 maybe clearer.

Please advise.

thanks.

Thanks for the replies.

Brian, how can you specify the sap client in the URL?

Here's our url? (NOTE: <host> is our hostname)

http://<host>:8000/sap/bc/bsp/sap/testbsp/index.htm

Craig, under RZ10, our default client is 000 but looks like the data is coming from our DEV environment.

According to SAP help, the default client will come from the ICF configuration and get the client on the highest level in the hierarchy? What does it mean? The highest so far is the SAP namespace, however, after I put the client id there, still getting the data from the default client ID in which I am not sure where is being setup.

Please advise.

thanks.

This is how you direct your request to a particular client thru URL

http://<host>:8000/sap/bc/bsp/sap/testbsp/index.htm?sap-client=<client no>

<u><b>How the default client is set</b></u>

Its maintained in the profile paramter.

login/system_client
 Specifies the default client. This client is automatically filled in on the system logon screen. Users can type in a different client.

See Raja's answer.

As for where your data is coming from only you can tell us that. Each system is different and unique so unless you are doing RFC calls to retreive data then you are getting the data from the system you are logged into.

Thanks for the replies, I just put the client in the URL and it works and for the default client in RZ10, our setup is 000 as the default client but when we logon to SAP, the default client is not 000.

Anyway, putting client ID in the URL will work for what we need.

Thanks everyone for the help.

If no client is given then it takes the default login client of your SAP system itself (transaction rz10).

You can do the SICF maintence in any system provided the system is open for customizing (transaction scc4)

Yes, working overtime! (Mostly to read your answers:)

Somewhere in WebAS one can define a default client, the same thing that is used when logging on in SAPGUI. Never did find the place. Maybe you can ask your system administrator on this topic. He should know. Otherwise I will have to find mine to ask. Much more complex.

You can also specify this in url with sap-client. Although probably not what you want to do.
