Over the course of last two years, SAP has reminded its customers through Emails, Blogs, SAP Notes and KBAs, of upcoming changes and necessary actions. More than 90% of SAP’s customer base have moved their systems to connect to SAP via the new HTTP infrastructure.

To avoid any optional problem kindly check out the following details to support you moving your system. For accessing notes below S-User is required.
