What is an Add-on?

ABAP Add-ons are a third-party ABAP solutions. The Add-ons conform to SAP conventions and are eligible for certification within the SAP integration certification framework.

ABAP add-ons are developed under a special ABAP workbench development license. You can use the license to develop add-on applications for SAP components. SAP components supplement the existing SAP installations and programs where SAP-preferred technologies are not available.

SAP development partners must use the SAP Add-On Assembly Kit (AAK) to package an ABAP Add-on and use the toolkit throughout the development lifecycle. The AAK toolkit ensures, among other checks, that:

  • The codes are SAP modified
  • SAP objects are not modified
  • No native SQL statements are used

All these checks are designed to protect the integrity of the SAP system.

Note: 
  • You must follow the steps outlined in this document for your system to operate properly. Else, the IRC may fail to connect to the your SAP system.
