Accessing your system

This section confirms that the SAP Integrated Product Development Production tenant system’s Data Center is now set up and ready to be configured for use and contains details about how to access your SAP BTP global account. Your SAP BTP credentials (username and password) are sent to you separately. You can also view the "Onboarding and Overview Session" via the link provided.

To set up your SAP Integrated Product Development tenant, you have to subscribe to SAP Integrated Product Development from an existing or new subaccount. Using the system URL, you can log on to your Production Tenant system with your username and password.

To create a fully functional tenant, you need to subscribe to the Individual SAP Integrated Product Development SaaS applications you want to use. In order to do this, the following steps are necessary:

1. Configure entitlement for your subaccount and subscribe to the SAP Integrated Product Development applications.
2. Setup Trust, Users & Role Collection according to Managing Users with the Identity Authentication Service.
3. Setup Connectivity Configurations.
4. Setup Entry Point for App Access.
5. Setup Business Configurations.
