The link program ICSap.exe uses a configuration file named Settings.ini.

To configure the SAP link program:

  1. If you copied ICSap.exe and Settings.ini to a shared network folder as described in Installing the SAP link program, open Settings.ini from that location in any text editor.

OR

  1. If you will copy ICSap.exe and Settings.ini to the same folder on  every SAP Plant Maintenance user’s computer as described in Installing the SAP link program, copy Settings.ini from <Setup>\MMS to a convenient location and open it in any text editor.
  2. Locate the VaultNameSeperators setting in the [Settings] section.
  3. Modify the setting to include the separators that should be used to interpret the <FunctionalLocation> parameter. Type SPACE to indicate a space character.

For example:

[Settings]
VaultNameSeperators = - , SPACE , _
  1. Locate the section that corresponds to the vault name.

VaultName

The Meridian Enterprise vault (datastore name) that contains the documents.

Note The value of VaultName will override the datastore name that is configured for Web Access in the settings.asp file.
