• SAP Tcode: /UI2/GW_SYS_ALI - Gateway - Manage SAP System Alias

  
  Overview:
  The SAP transaction code /UI2/GW_SYS_ALI is used to manage SAP system aliases. It allows users to create, edit, and delete aliases for SAP systems. This transaction code is part of the SAP Gateway component, which provides a secure connection between the SAP system and external applications. 
  
  Functionality:
  The /UI2/GW_SYS_ALI transaction code allows users to manage system aliases for SAP systems. Aliases are used to identify a particular system in the SAP Gateway. They are used to simplify the process of connecting to a specific system, as they provide a shorter and easier-to-remember name than the full system name. 
  
  Step-by-step How to Use: 
  1. Enter the transaction code /UI2/GW_SYS_ALI in the command field. 
  2. The initial screen will show a list of existing aliases. 
  3. To create a new alias, click on the “Create” button at the top of the screen. 
  4. Enter the alias name and description in the appropriate fields. 
  5. Select the target system from the drop-down list and enter its details in the appropriate fields. 
  6. Click “Save” to save your changes and create the new alias. 
  7. To edit an existing alias, select it from the list and click on “Edit” at the top of the screen. 
  8. Make your changes and click “Save” to save them. 
  9. To delete an existing alias, select it from the list and click on “Delete” at the top of the screen. 
  10. Confirm your action by clicking “Yes” in the confirmation dialog box that appears. 
  
  Other Recommendations: 
  It is recommended that users only create or edit aliases if they are familiar with SAP Gateway and understand how it works. It is also important to ensure that all aliases are kept up-to-date with any changes made to their target systems, as this will ensure that connections are successful when using them in external applications.
