The Panaya SAP Synchronizer is a small client component that connects Panaya to your SAP system through your own SAP GUI session. Panaya doesn't connect to SAP directly. The Synchronizer runs on your machine, uses your SAP user and authorizations, and moves information between Panaya and SAP in a controlled way.
What the Synchronizer Does
There are two Synchronizer components, each with its own setup:
Component | What it does | Setup guide |
|---|---|---|
SAP Synchronizer (Intelligent Code Remediation) | Submits approved automatic and AI-assisted code fixes from Panaya to your SAP development system, using a standard Workbench transport request. Used in S/4Code, S/4Convert and S/4Accelerate projects. | |
Code Changes Synchronizer | Imports your new transports from SAP into Panaya so they're included in the impact analysis. |
How It Works
You start an action in Panaya, for example by clicking Approve submit on a Fix Package.
Panaya launches the Synchronizer on your machine and checks the connection to Panaya, your proxy settings and available updates.
The Synchronizer connects to the SAP GUI session you're logged in to and runs the Panaya transaction installed in your SAP system (
ZPANAYA_ACC_SYNCfor code fixes,ZPANAYA_EXPORT_CRSfor code changes).When it finishes, Panaya shows you a summary of the results.
To see each screen when you submit code fixes, see Submitting Fix Packages to SAP.
Before You Start
To use the Synchronizer, you need:
Access to the relevant SAP development system, with a user that can display, create and execute ABAP programs
A Panaya username and password
SAP GUI for Windows, with GUI scripting enabled on both the server and the client
.NET Framework 4.6.2 or higher
At least 100MB free in the Windows temp directory
*.panaya.com added to your proxy, antivirus and trusted-sites lists
The required SAP authorizations. See ICR Synchronizer Authorizations and Synchronizer Authorizations.
The full requirements, including supported SAP GUI versions, are in each setup guide.
Online or Local Installation
By default, the Synchronizer runs online and updates itself automatically. That's the recommended option.
If your organization blocks the online tool, you use Google Chrome, or you work in a Citrix or VDI environment, you can install the Synchronizer locally instead. A local installation isn't updated automatically. See Synchronizer Local Setup.
