    Important!
    Panaya requires that you upload your custom code at least every 14 days to keep using the Synchronizer.

    Server Side Installation

     
    Step 1 - Download the Source Code

    The Panaya synchronizer should be synced with your Development environment.
    To download the Synchronizer - 

        1. Click on the Settings button

        2. Verify that the relevant system is selected in the drop-down list

        3. Under SAP Development, for Synchronization of Code Changes - ABAP Component, select to Download Code


     

    Step 2 - Create an Executable Program & Transaction

    1. Open the downloaded TXT file and copy the entire source code displayed
    2. Use the copied source code to create a new executable program in SAP
    3. Name the program ZPANAYA_GET_CRS_DATA
    4. Create a transaction for the program named ZPANAYA_EXPORT_CRS.
      The transaction type should be Program and selection screen (report transaction)
    5. Set permission to use the transaction ZPANAYA_EXPORT_CRS for all users required to sync changes to RDx.

    Caution
    Panaya synchronizer requires that a transaction with the exact hardcoded name ZPANAYA_EXPORT_CRS be present in the system.
    Be sure to create such a transaction and keep the name unchanged.


    Step 3 - Set Server Parameters

    • Enable GUI Scripting
      Panaya synchronizer requires SAP GUI scripting to be enabled.
      Please set the system profile parameters as shown below -

      - sapgui/user_scripting = TRUE
      - sapgui/user_scripting_disable_recording = FALSE
      - sapgui/user_scripting_set_readonly = FALSE
    Detailed information can be found in this article.


    Step 4 - Enable Authorizations for Users

    Each user running the Panaya Synchronizer must have a set of authorizations within the SAP system as listed here.


    Client-Side Installation


    Step 1 - Enable GUI Scripting & Deny Pop-Up Notifications

    Panaya Test Management requires SAP GUI scripting to be enabled, as well as disabling SAP pop-up notifications for accelerated testing.
    The process described here must be repeated for every client machine using the Synchronizer.

     

    Step 2 - Set SAP Network Settings to High-Speed Connection

    To assure completeness and accuracy of data recorded, make sure the Network Settings is set to high-Speed Connection for every client machine using the Synchronizer.
    Follow the instructions described here.


     

    Step 3 - Install .NET Framework

    .NET Framework version 4.6.2 or above must be present on the local machine of each user running the Panaya Synchronizer.
    We recommend using .NET Framework version 4.0. Most computers already have .NET Framework, so normally no installation is needed.
    If you experience issues while installing Panaya's Synchronizer, please install the .NET Framework from Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0.


    Step 4 - Configure Security Settings

    Please ensure that proxy settings are not preventing Panaya's Synchronizer from working properly. 

    If you have an anti-virus, VPN, Remote Machine, or Virtual Machine, you might need to add Panaya to the safe domains list. Sites on this list do not require a proxy or any other security permission.

    Add *.Panaya.com to your white-list or your exceptions lists (e.g., proxy, anti-virus, etc.)

    Alternatively, add the following URLs to your white-list:
    my.panaya.com or emea.panaya.com
    cdn.panaya.com
    reports.panaya.com
    sso-emea.panaya.com
    sso-us.panaya.com


    Step 5 - Browser Configuration
