1 Where Can This Script Be Used?
This demo script has been written for usage with the SAP S/4HANA 2021 FPS00 & 01 Fully-Activated Appliance (in
short “appliance” in this script), hence you will need such an appliance to make use of this guide.
The appliance can be brought up in two ways, and the demo scenario in this script is largely the same for both:
1. Via SAP Cloud Appliance Library (hosted on cloud providers)
You need a cloud provider account at AWS, MS Azure, or GCP. With this, you can deploy the appliance within 1-2
hours from https://cal.sap.com > Solutions > SAP S/4HANA 2021 (FPS00 or 01) Fully-Activated Appliance.
2. Via installing it on your own on-premise hardware.
You need to provide your own hardware, and order & install the appliance as explained in SAP Note 2041140.
If you are new to the SAP S/4HANA Fully-Activated Appliance, introductory information can be found here:

a-fraction-of-the-usual-setup-time/
Important:
Before you start your demo, please read SAP S/4HANA Fully-Activated Appliance: Demo Scripts for information
about necessary preparations, especially any post-deployment steps to ensure the full functionality of your appliance.
These steps are covered in sections:
B) General Remarks
C) Post-deployment Steps
D) Log-on to the system
Besides this, you will also find links to all demo scripts on this page.

2 Before you start
In this demo script, you will learn how to directly migrate data from an SAP ERP source system into SAP S/4HANA,
hence, this scenario requires an SAP ERP source system besides the SAP S/4HANA Fully-Activated Appliance target
system.
In the demo scenario we will use an instance of the SAP CAL solution “SAP ERP 6.0 EhP 6 for Data Migration to SAP
S/4HANA” (the system ID will be ABA) and connect it to your existing SAP S/4HANA Fully-Activated Appliance.
2.1 Create an SAP ERP instance and connect it to S/4HANA
Follow these steps to create the ERP system and connect it to S/4HANA:
1) Create an SAP ERP instance (system ID will be ABA)
Create an instance from the ERP 6.0 solution by going to https://cal.sap.com and searching for “ERP”.
You may find multiple entries, take the most recent one. The procedure to create the instance is the same as for the
S/4HANA instance and will take ~ 60 minutes.
For the demo scenario to work, the S/4 and the ERP systems need to be able to communicate via RFC (see next step
how to connect them). Normally this works smoothly if the two systems (S/4HANA and ERP 6.0) are created in the
same network segment of your chosen cloud provider (e.g. in the same CAL/cloud provider account).
If you face connectivity issues in the next step, please check your network setup.
2) Create an RFC connection from S/4HANA → SAP ERP.
Once you have both systems up and running (S/4HANA & ERP), proceed as follows:
a) Note down the external IP address of the SAP ERP 6.0 system (can be obtained from the CAL console of the SAP
ERP instance, same as what you did when mapping your /etc/hosts file)
b) Log on to SAP GUI of the S/4HANA system (either with a local SAP GUI or via the remote desktop)
c) Enter tCode SM59 in the S/4HANA system
d) Open the entry in ABAP Connections → ABACLNT800 and click the Display <-> Change icon.
e) In tab Technical Settings, enter the external IP address of the SAP ERP system into field “IP address” or field
“target host”, dependent on which field is ready for input. Instance number is 00. Don’t mind if the system
converts something in the field “target host”.
f) Save
g) Go to tab Logon & Security
h) Client 100 is already proposed
i) Enter the value IDADMIN in field user
j) Enter the value ides123 in field password
k) Save
l) Click Connection Test or Remote Logon to check the connectivity (in case of problems, check your network
setup)
