Release version: Brazil  
Updated March 12, 2026  
![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 3 minutes to read  
Integrate the ServiceNow instance and SAP ECC RFC account by
using the Basic Auth credentials to authenticate ServiceNow
requests.

## Before you begin

* Request an Integration Hub subscription.
* Activate the SAP ECC IDoc spoke.
* Role required: admin.
{#setup-sap-ecc-rfc__ul_agy_qxd_rlb}

## Configure MID Server for the SAP ECC RFC spoke {#ariaid-title2}

Configure MID Server using the SAP proprietary JAR files to integrate SAP ECC RFC account with your ServiceNow® instance.

### Before you begin

Role required: admin.

### Procedure

1. **Optional:** Navigate to AllSystem PropertiesSecurity.  
   Note:  
   This is applicable only if your MID Server is installed on a Linux machine
2. **Optional:** Disable the MIME type validation for file attachments.  
   Note:  
   This is applicable only if your MID Server is installed on a Linux machine
3. Navigate to MID ServerJAR Files.
4. Upload the required SAP proprietary files (JAR, SO, or DLL) obtained after contacting your SAP ECC RFC admin.  
   For more information, see [Synchronize a JAR file to MID Servers](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=t_SynchronizeAJARFiletoMIDServers&version=brazil&pubname=brazil-servicenow-platform&ft:locale=en-US).

### What to do next

Ensure that the files are synchronised in the \<MID-Server-root-directory\>/agent/extlib directory. If the files aren't synchronised, restart the MID Server.

## Create a credential record for the SAP ECC RFC spoke {#ariaid-title3}

Create a credential record for the SAP ECC RFC account. The
SAP ECC RFC spoke connection and credential alias uses these credentials to
authorize actions.

### Before you begin

   | Field | Description |
   |-|-|
   | Name | Name to uniquely identify the record. For example, <kbd class="ph userinput">SAP ECC RFC Cred</kbd>. |
   | User name | User name to log in to your SAP ECC RFC account. |
   | Password | Password to authenticate and log in to your SAP ECC RFC account. |
   | Active | Option to actively use the credential record. |

5. Click Submit.
{#cred-sap-ecc-rfc__steps_yjl_s5p_xmb}

## Create a connection record for the SAP ECC RFC spoke {#ariaid-title4}

Create a connection record for your SAP ECC RFC account. The
SAP ECC RFC spoke connection and credential aliases use these connections to
perform actions in SAP ECC RFC.

### Before you begin

Role required: admin.

### Procedure

1. Navigate to AllConnections \& CredentialsConnections \& Credentials Aliases.
2. Open the alias record for SAP ECC RFC.
3. From the Connections tab, click New.

   | Name | Name to uniquely identify the record. For example, <kbd class="ph userinput">SAP ECC RFC Connection</kbd>. |
   | Credential | Credential record created for SAP ECC RFC spoke. For example, <kbd class="ph userinput">SAP ECC RFC Cred</kbd>. |
   | Connection alias | Alias record associated with this connection. |
   | Host | IP address of the target host where the SAP ECC RFC server is installed. |
   |   |   |
   | Active | Option to actively use the connection record. |
   | Domain | Domain that the action runs in. |
   | Override default port | Target port used by the connection. If blank, the system uses the default port. |
