The setup page is used to configure the SAP PowerConnect App for Splunk. This is performed immediately after app installation.

Navigate to Apps > Manage Apps. Alternatively, find the gear icon in the Apps menu.

In the app listing, find the “SAP PowerConnect for Splunk” app and click the “Set UP” action.

Determine which of the options below should be selected:

  • Defaults Selection: Sets the following default options… 

    • Default TimeRange: Select the time range that is used as the default for most dashboards in the app. 

    • Default Span: Select the time span that is used as the default for span inputs across the app. 

    • SAP Data Indexes: Indicate which indexes are used for SAP data. This populates one of the macros used for searches across the app. 

    • SAP Metric Indexes: Indicate which indexes are used for SAP metrics. This populates another macro used for searches across the app. This feature is currently in limited implementation. 

  • SAP Product Selection 

    • Database Selection: Allows you to check the database types used by your SAP implementation. This will ensure that only the required database dashboards are visible in the app. 

    • SAP Cloud Selection: Allows you to check the SAP Cloud products used by your SAP implementation. This will ensure that only the required SAP Cloud dashboards are visible in the app. 

    • SAP Fiori Selection: Allows you to indicate whether your SAP implementation includes SAP Fiori. This will ensure that the SAP Fiori dashboards are visible in the app. 

  • Application Setup Status: Please ensure this is checked in order to record the configuration status of the app. 

After configuration, click “Save” to apply the changes and the page will redirect to “System Overview” dashboard.
