Installation

Summary

apm exists in 2 flavours: standalone version or developer version.

• The standalone version is targeted at users. It consists of one (huge) program which contains all the needed code. You run the standalone version in transaction ZAPM, executing the program you created.
• The developer version is targeted at developers contributing to the apm codebase. It consists of all the ABAP programs/classes/interfaces/etc. of the apm client. You run the developer version with transaction /n/APMG/APM.

Prerequisites

apm requires SAP Basis 7.50 or higher.

apm works best with SAP GUI for Windows. Check SAP GUI for details about the SAP GUI Browser Control and other SAP GUI versions (for Java or for HTML).

Install Standalone Version

1. Download the ABAP code (right click -> save-as) to a file.
2. Via SE38, SE80, or ADT, create a new report named ZABAPPM_STANDALONE.
3. In source code change mode, upload the code from the file using Utilities -> More Utilities -> Upload/Download -> Upload
4. Activate

Typically, apm will only be used in the development system, so it can be installed in a local $ package (e.g. $ZAPM).

Now you can use apm by executing the report in transaction SE38.

Install Developer Version

In order to contribute to the apm project, you install the developer version of apm using abapGit. Create an Online Repository in abapGit for https://github.com/abapPM/abapPM and package /APMG/APM. First, pull only the namespace. Then pull the rest of the objects.
