Summary :
This SAP Note provides guidance for configuring SAP Logon 7.20, detailing both local and server-side configuration methods. It explains the prerequisites and steps for setting up server configuration files, such as SapLogonTree.xml and saplogon.ini, on a central server, which can then be distributed to users. Users can initiate SAP Logon with specific parameters or environment variables to use these centralized files. Additionally, instructions are given for allowing users to combine server and local configurations, setting registry values, and managing multiple server configurations and their corresponding paths in the XML file. Enhancements in SAP GUI 7.30 concerning file caching are also addressed to ensure configurations are maintained when the server configuration file cannot be accessed, with options to manage caching behaviors through the GUI.
