## Direct SAP Connection

If no default connection has been defined, ScriptBuilder will allow you to select a connection from a list.

## Interactive SAP GUI Connection

An alternative login method. When selecting this option, the “Connect to SAP” instruction will open the SAP Login screen, allowing the user to view the username and password input. The “Direct” option bypasses these steps for immediate connection.

With Interactive SAP GUI Connection, the [SAP Connection Name](/v1/docs/sap-connections) in Panaya must match the name of the SAP server in SAP GUI.

## SAP logon exe path

Panaya predefined the SAP logon exe path, which should be directed to the location of **sapshcut.exe**. You can override the path if necessary. The path appearing here will determine the path used for the connection instruction in the script. Learn more about [SAP Connections](/v1/docs/sap-connections).

## Automatically close SAP Logon

You can configure ScriptBuilder to close SAP Logon at the end of the execution by enabling this setting. This helps maintain clean SAP sessions and can improve troubleshooting by preventing unnecessary active SAP Logon instances.
