Use a Booster for creating a Subaccount with an ABAP Environment

First, before you run the booster, check that your Global Account is entitled to the ABAP Environment.

In your Global Account, navigate to Entitlements –> Service Assignments.

Search for “ABAP” to reduce the list. Make sure you are entitled and have a free, unused Quota:

You can find boosters under the navigation entry “boosters” in your global account.

In this mission, we are using the booster “Prepare an Account for ABAP Development” which helps you to create a Cloud Foundry subaccount for developing ABAP applications.

Step by step, the booster assigns a curated set of entitlements, creates a subaccount, configures services, and sets up authorizations.

In the background, it enables Cloud Foundry, creates default space, and assigns users to specific roles.

In the boosters overview, select the booster “Prepare an Account for ABAP Development,” read the “Overview” description, and check the required “components.” Entitlement to “Cloud Foundry Runtime” is required, which means your Global Account is entitled to use Cloud Foundry runtime.

Press “Start” to start the booster.

In the first step, the prerequisites for an ABAP subaccount are checked.

Option “Failed”: If the booster fails, it will tell you what is missing:

Option “Done”: If the booster passes, the check is marked as green - authorizations and entitlements are fulfilled.

Click “Next” to continue.

Provide the following entries to the booster:

1. Entitlements

   See the picture for a minimum set-up. Note that you need at least 4 units of Quota for hana_compute_unit.

   

2. A subaccount name of your choice.

3. Provider (Note: Only multi-cloud providers support Cloud Foundry runtime. SAP Data Center cannot be selected).

4. Region (Typically near your location).

5. Subdomain (Note: The subdomain name is used for URL access, and it cannot be changed once created).

6. Org name of your choice.

7. Space name (typically DEV, TEST, or PROD).

8. Click on Next.

Your user is pre-configured as an Admin and Developer. You may add additional subaccount admin users and developers.

Click on “Next”.

Must be 3 capital letters or digits.

Choose “Next”.

1. Check the summary of the subaccount details before you execute the booster.

   

2. Click “Finish” and the booster will be executed.

   

3. After the booster has been executed successfully, you get a success popup.

   

4. Click on “Navigate to Subaccount”.

1. In your new Subaccount Overview page, check the newly created configuration

   

2. Goto to Instances and Subscriptions in the left-handed navigation pane:

   

3. From here you can check your Web Access for ABAP.

   You just get a success message.

   

4. Discover your ABAP Admin Dashboard.

   Browse the dashboard to become familiar. The tutorial ends here. You will use the dashboard in advanced tutorials or missions.

   

After completion, the subaccount can be accessed for further configuration and development.
