BEA WebLogic - Overview; Starting Servlet Application Explorer

Overview
3-2 BEA Systems, Inc.
Overview
The BEA WebLogic Adapter for SAP enables the processing of SAP BAPIs, RFCs, and IDocs.
External applications that access SAP through the adapter use either XML schemas or Web
services to pass data between the external application and the adapter. You can use Servlet
Application Explorer to create the required XML schemas and Web services.
AE is a Web application running within a servlet container that is accessible through a Web
browser. For more information on installing and configuring the Servlet Application
Explorer, see the BEA WebLogic ERP Adapter Installation and Configuration documentation.
SAP must be installed, configured, and available for client access. Application Explorer need
not reside on the same system as the application system being accessed, but network
access is required.
Starting Servlet Application Explorer
Before you can use the Servlet Application Explorer to browse metadata and create XML
schemas, you must start the BEA WebLogic Server.
