System requirements for coresuite
framework and country package
Before you install coresuite, make sure that your system meets the software and
hardware requirements for SAP Business One. For more information, please visit www.
sap.com (http://sappartneredge.com/B1/platforms).
Some modules might have different requirements than the ones listed below. Please
check the relevant manual.
When installing coresuite country package for the first time in your environment,
ensure that you use the latest available installer from http://coresystems.ch/en/
support/download/coresuite-products/. Ensure that you always run the most current
version of each module. To to do so, go to http://coresystems.ch/en/support/
download/coresuite-modules/ and select the relevant SAP Business One patch level.
Before you install coresuite on Citrix environments, make sure that your system meets
the requirements specified under https://helpdesk.coresystems.ch/entries/22419836.
Reported support issues caused by not following these guidelines will be charged.
Windows users need full permissions for the SAP Business One add-on directory on the
relevant PC/system, and read/write permissions on the SBO_SHR directory on the
server.
Vista and later Windows versions use UAC (User Account Control). Adding the
permissions above described to each Windows user account is not enough for those
permissions to be actually available. Especially for module updates, SAP Business One
needs to be run explicitly as Administrator (via right-click on the SAP Business One
icon) to take effect. For additional information, please refer to http://windows.
microsoft.com/en-ie/windows7/what-is-user-account-control.
The database authentication account for Microsoft SQL must have full permissions to
create/update databases.

Procedure for SAP Business One updates
Make sure that you have installed the latest coresuite modules before you install any SAP
Business One update. Also make sure that you download and install the relevant SAP Dlls,
because they are required for the add-on to communicate correctly with the coresuite modules.
Procedure for coresuite module updates
Make sure each SAP Business One client application is at least started once explicitly as
Administrator (via right-click on the SAP Business One icon) for the module update(s) to be
completed successfully (as described above).
If the update is not performed correctly, the following issue will occur: https://helpdesk.
coresystems.ch/entries/23127347.
Supported/Faulty SBO patch levels
Please check the following list before you set up or upgrade any customer system. SAP
Business One patch levels need to be tested before they can be released for coresuite

helpdesk.coresystems.ch/entries/25050472
coresuite for SAP Business One 8.82 PL00 - PL02 has been released with restrictions for
coresuite 3.30 or higher, because they were released during the ramp-up phase.
On SAP Business One 9.0 PL07-PL11 the connector might crash during the configuration,
resulting in endless spinners or error messages. The connector might also crash at any point
during operation. This is due to an SAP incident (see SAP Note 2019495).
b) Faulty Patch Levels in connection with the coresuite add-ons
SBO 9.0 PL09 (SAP Note 1968216 - UI API DataBind.Alias and DataBind.TableName do not
work when adding and binding an EditText to a UDO form. This issue corrupts add-ons.)
SBO 8.82 PL03 (SAP Note 1681796 - Add-on menus cannot be created)
SBO 8.81 PL05 & 06 (we recommend to upgrade to SBO 8.81 PL07 or higher)

cloud and mobile

We recommend project management by coresystems to ensure optimal performance.

coresuite time
If you record efforts, expenses, mileages, material or working time on
mobile devices or on the coresuite.com business client you need at
least one coresuite time license in SAP Business One.
Other requirements
Internet connection 512kbit/sec (faster connection recommended)
Validations or changes to the Stored Procedures SBO_SP_TransactionNotification and
SBO_SP_PostTransactionNotice can block the SAP Business One DI API and cause
synchronization problems. If changes have been made, you must check them with
coresystems before using the connector (subject to charge).
SAP allows own code to be added to the SBO_SP_TransactionNotification and
SBO_SP_PostTransactionNotice Stored Procedures.
Please note that adding and/or modifying own code in either Stored Procedure can
have a negative impact on the coresuite.com cloud connector (synchronization issues
or blocking of the SAP Business One DI API). We therefore suggest that you verify any
changes with coresystems in advance (chargeable service).
System requirements for coresuite.com cloud and mobile

coresuite.com cloud connector for SAP Business All-in-One
System requirements for the SAP ECC system
SAP ECC Release 6.0 SP 19 or higher
SAP NetWeaver 7.0 SP 14 or higher
Web Services on SAP are active and accessible
SAP technical user for Web Service
SAP user with development and transport authorization
For user-defined fields and enhancements: SAP user with developer key
System requirements for the Message Broker
Windows Server
Any Windows Server with .NET 4.0 framework
RAM
At least 256MB available
HDD
The program itself requires minimal disk space. However, the log files
can grow big quickly and take several gigabytes. This is why we
recommend you have 50GB free space. Log files retention policy should
be considered and implemented to keep the HDD requirements lower.
Remote access
Installation and administration of the Message Broker requires a
(remote or physical) access to the machine, with administrative rights
(necessary to install/update program binaries and start/stop windows
service).
Network connectivity
The following firewall ports have to be opened in order to make E4C work:
SAP ECC -->
Message Broker
host
One port has to be opened, the port number is easily configurable and
it depends on the configuration of the Message Broker web service.
Message Broker --> One port has to be opened; the port number depends on the SAP
SAP ECC host
internet Communication Manager configuration. The default is (8000 +
SAP system number).
Message Broker --> Currently, two ports need to be opened: 443 and 9443; both for
coresuite cloud
HTTPS communication.
host (intranet -->
internet)
Note that, although E4C handles bidirectional communication, from the point of view of
the network connectivity, all connections between E4C and coresuite cloud are
outgoing connections. This is why no inbound connections/ports (from internet to
intranet) on the firewall need to be opened to enable receiving inbound messages.
