Import SAP transports

To make sure metadata extraction jobs complete successfully, import SAP ERP catalog source transports to the SAP server. Before you import SAP transports, you need to install the SAP ERP Reader transport files on the machines that you want to connect to.
Import SAP transports to the SAP ERP source. You can choose the transport from the dedicated Informatica namespace or the custom namespace.
Transports are available in the SAP_Scanner_Binaries.zip file located in the Informatica Cloud Secure Agent installation directory.
The ZIP file is available in the following location:
<Informatica Secure Agent installation directory>/downloads/package-MFAgentCore.{*}/package/data/scanner/sap/SAP_Scanner_Binaries.zip
It is recommended that you import the latest version of the transports. If you use the scanner transports from the version preceding the current version, you see the following message in the logs: SAP Transport version is on previous Version.!!Please import latest transport!!
Important:
Metadata extraction from SAP ERP sources can fail if the transports are not valid or unavailable. For more information, see
Knowledge Base article 000202750
.
For information about the latest transports available with the release, see HOW TO: Import the latest transports for SAP catalog sources in Metadata Command Center.
