1 Introduction

This document describes the installation process for Stelo Tile Builder (STB) release 100.

The STB app is delivered as a standard SAP ABAP Add-On and follows the standard installation procedure.

1.1 Prerequisites for installing STB

Please review the System Requirements before installing.

• SAP_UI (minimum version required is Fiori FES 5.0 with SAP_UI 7.53)
  • https://launchpad.support.sap.com/#/notes/2616791

• User performing the post installation activities will need an abap developer role and developer key.

• Current versions of kernel, tp and R3trans

• Current SPAM / SAINT Update

Make sure that you have imported the most recent SPAM / SAINT Update into your system. Compare the short text of the last SPAM / SAINT Update you imported with that of the SPAM / SAINT Update in the SAP Service Marketplace. If the version of the SPAM / SAINT Update in the SAP Service Marketplace is more recent, import it.

1.2  Preparation for installing STB

Support Packs are not cumulative so all ABAP ADD-ON .SAR files received with the STB distribution must be applied.

1.    Mount the Add-On Installation Media.
2.    Unpack the archive STB_INST_<VER>.SAR in the subdirectory DATA using the command:

sapcar –xvf STB_INST_<VER>.SAR

3.    From the resulting EPS/IN directory, copy the QA1*.PAT file into your development system EPS inbox directory:

//sapmnt/trans/EPS/in

4.    Ensure that the permissions of the file are set for read/write access for the SAP O/S users.

Quick note: Steps 2-4 can also be done in SAINT:

     SAINT -> Installation Package -> Load Packages -> From Front End

          For Service Packs you would use SPAM.

For more information about this, see the online documentation for Add-On Installation Tool. To do this, choose the help function in the application toolbar and navigate to Online Documentation → Loading Installation Packages.
