Starting as SAP Integration Suite Administrator

The following lessons will guide you through the process of setting up SAP Integration Suite and performing administrator tasks. Before diving into the technical setup, there are a few key considerations to keep in mind. Taking these factors into account will help ensure a smooth and efficient setup process.

Determine in which SAP BTP subaccount you want to use SAP Integration Suite. If you don’t have an SAP BTP subaccount yet, follow these instructions on how to create a subaccount.

Activate the necessary entitlements for the SAP Integration Suite service within your subaccount. If these entitlements are not available, request the SAP BTP global account administrator to assign them. If you're not the global account administrator, contact the global account administrator to add the SAP Integration Suite entitlement to your subaccount. Coordinate with the global account administrator to ensure SAP Integration Suite is enabled in the correct region and runs on the appropriate hyperscaler. The global account administrator will handle these tasks, so effective communication and planning are key.

Check your role collections in your subaccount. To be able to set up SAP Integration Suite, you need the role collection Subaccount Administrator. The user who initially creates the subaccount automatically obtains this user role and can also assign it to other users in this subaccount.

In your subaccount, navigate to Security → Users. Find your username. Click on the arrow on the right next to your user.

You will see a section called Role Collections. Check if the Subaccount Administrator role collection is assigned to your user. If you don’t have this role collection, ask your Subaccount Administrator to add this role collection to your user.

Take a look at the available service plans for SAP Integration Suite. The global account administrator usually pre-configures and assigns the service plan to your subaccount. However, it is still helpful for the SAP Integration Suite administrator to have a basic understanding of what a service plan is and how it works.

Services within SAP BTP are consumed through service plans. These service plans define the availability and pricing of each service based on the selected commercial model. To better understand the available service plans for SAP Integration Suite, you can use the SAP Discovery Center. In the service catalog of the SAP Discovery Center, you can filter by service and commercial model to view the service plans available for your service in specific regions. This allows you to identify which plans are offered, the regions in which they are available, and the associated pricing.

1. Navigate to the SAP Discovery Center.
2. Click on Service Catalog.
3. Using the search bar, search for "Integration Suite" and then click on the Integration Suite tile.
4. Select Pricing and choose your commercial model in the drop down menu.
5. Check out the available service plans and see which technical features they contain, in which regions and on which hyperscalers they’re available, and the monthly cost for this service plan.

For a deeper understanding of the different commercial models, take a look at the section Commercial Models on the SAP Help Portal.

To set up SAP Integration Suite, ensure that the necessary entitlements are activated in your subaccount. If not, contact the SAP BTP global account administrator to add them and coordinate to enable the service in the correct region and hyperscaler.

Choose the subaccount for SAP Integration Suite, and ensure that you have the "Subaccount Administrator" role.

Finally, review the available service plans in the SAP Discovery Center to understand pricing and availability.
