• Key Concepts: 
  Cross-domain redirection is a feature of the BC-SEC Security component of SAP that allows users to be redirected from one domain to another. This feature is useful for applications that require authentication or authorization across multiple domains. It also allows users to access resources from different domains without having to log in multiple times.
  
  How to use it: 
  To use cross-domain redirection, the user must first be authenticated in the source domain. Once authenticated, the user can then be redirected to the target domain. The user will then be able to access resources from both domains without having to log in again.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using cross-domain redirection, it is important to ensure that the user's credentials are securely stored and transmitted between domains. Additionally, it is important to ensure that the user's session is properly terminated when they are finished using the application.
  
  Related Information: 
  Cross-domain redirection is related to other features of SAP such as single sign-on (SSO) and federated authentication. These features allow users to access multiple applications with a single set of credentials, eliminating the need for multiple logins.
