SAP GUI Confiuration for Mobiles and Tablet PCs

Requirement:

 

Users should be able to access SAPGUI, ESS from their android and ios based devices like mobile and tablets

 

Solution:

Configurations in SAP

 

You need to configure WEBGUI in sap. You can refer following link for configuration of WebGUI

http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-29485

 

Configurations in IOs Device

 

There is an applications in Apple market place 'SAP Launcher'. You can download this application and install on the device. By providing connection details you can  easily connect to sap webgui. I presume that you have connected to Wifi of your local office network.

 

Configurations in Android Based Device

 

You do not have sap gui application directly available for android devices. In this case we will make use of SAP WebGui.

 

As webgui works with host name resolution  we will  add host entry in android devices. For this I have used an application ' hosts editor ' which is available in android market. By this application you can maintain host entry similar to windows pc.

 

You can access webgui through following url

 

http://hostname:8000/sap/webgui?sap-client=client-number

 

VPN Connectivity:

 

Following applications found useful for connecting VPN. For vpn parameters you can take help of network team.

1.       NCP VPN Client – This application has facility of importing pcf files

2.       VPN Cilla

Apart from above you can find plenty of applications for vpn connectivity.

 

In the same way you can connect to your ESS Portal using following url
