Adobe Document Services Configuration for SAP NetWeaver 7.0
All steps that are necessary for interactive forms also apply to forms in ISR
scenarios, for example MSS Forms.
The following checklist gives you a summary of the information shown in the figure above.
Some steps depend on your application scenario. Each step provides a link to the appropriate
section in this document.

1. Select a security model for your web services connection and configure the web service
connection appropriate to that model. There are two security configuration options:
○ Basic Authentication – supports all functions including assigning usage rights,
but excluding digital signatures. If you use this model, you normally do not need
to configure the connection settings, because as of SAP NetWeaver 7.0, these
are the default settings in an ABAP+Java system. You should check the
configuration settings to verify that they are correct for your system. For
example, if you changed the client of the ABAP system, you need to check the
settings for the client information. For more information, see Configuration
Check [Page 11].
○ SSL – supports all functions including digital signatures. For detailed
information, see Configuration of the Web Service SSL Connection [Page
23]
■ If you are developing or processing forms in ABAP, you must change the
Destination Service for SSL [Page 28], because data is transmitted
between ABAP and Java environments. You also must change the
setting of the ABAP connection to SSL [Page 27].
■ You need to configure the IIOP SSL [Page
30] only if you require a high
level of security.
■ Install and configure the credentials required by SAP Web AS to assign
the credentials and CRLs required for document certification and signing.
For detailed information, see Installing and Configuring Credentials
[Page
33] .
2. If you use interactive forms, install and configure the credentials required by SAP Web
AS to assign usage rights (Reader Rights). For more information, see Installing and
Configuring Credentials [Page 33] and Reader Rights Credential [Page 33].
3. If your system configuration uses the System Landscape Directory (SLD), you must
publish the Adobe document services to the SLD. For detailed information, see
Publishing Adobe Document Services to the System Landscape Directory [Page
32].
5.1 Securing Access to the Web Service
To ensure secure access to the Web service of Adobe document services, you can configure
the Web service to use one of two security access methods:
● Basic Authentication
In an ABAP+Java system, Basic Authentication is set up automatically as the default
during the initial installation of Adobe document services.
You must check the settings using the Configuration Check [Page
11] to ensure
the configuration is appropriate for your system.
● SSL Connection
