  Key Concepts: 
  Referenced credential type is a feature of the ICM-CRD Credentialing (CRD) component of SAP. It allows users to store and manage credentials in a secure, centralized location. This makes it easier to access and share credentials across multiple applications and systems. The referenced credential type also provides an audit trail of who accessed the credentials and when. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the referenced credential type, users must first create a credential profile in the ICM-CRD Credentialing (CRD) component. This profile will contain all the necessary information about the credential, such as its type, expiration date, and access rights. Once the profile is created, users can then reference it in other applications or systems that require authentication. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a credential profile, make sure to include all relevant information about the credential. This will ensure that users have access to the correct credentials when they need them. Additionally, it is important to keep track of who has access to the credentials and when they were accessed. This will help maintain security and ensure that only authorized users have access to sensitive information.
