2. Then, select Base 64 as the format for the certificate file and press Enter. The certificate should now be visible in the designated section for certificates.
3. Add it to your list of certificates by clicking on “Add to Certificate List” and save all data entered.
Importing CA’s Root Certificate From a Different PSE
1. Expand the SSL server PSE node that contains the certificate. Choose one of your application servers by double-clicking on it.
2. Double-click on your certificate from the list in the maintenance section.
3. Within the SSL server PSE node, select a single application server by double-clicking on it.
4. Click on “Add to Certificate List” and save the information. This will add the certificate to the list within the PSE maintenance section.
After the certificate installation process, you can use an SSL checker tool to run a diagnostic test that verifies the installation has completed without any errors.
Configuring the SSL certificate in SAP ABAP
To install an SSL certificate in a SAP ABAP system, follow these steps:
1. Create the SSL server PSEs.
2. Generate a certificate request for each SSL server PSE.
3. Send the certificate requests to a Certificate Authority (CA) to be signed.
5. Maintain the list of certificates in the SSL server PSE.

Activating SSL Certificate in SAP: A Guide
Request a Technical Communication User to Install SSL Certificate in SAP ABAP System
To install an SSL certificate in your SAP ABAP system, follow the steps below:
1. Check the Required Kernel Version: Before proceeding with the installation, ensure that you have the required kernel version for SSL certificate installation. Refer to the documentation or contact your system administrator to verify if your current kernel version supports SSL.
2. Check and Install CommonCryptoLib: CommonCryptoLib is a prerequisite for installing an SSL certificate in SAP ABAP systems. Make sure it is installed on your system by checking its availability in transaction code SAINT (Software Update Manager). If not available, download and install it using SAINT.
3. Check and Adjust TLS/SSL Protocol Version: Verify which TLS/SSL protocol versions are supported by both your server and client applications. It is recommended to use TLS 1.2 as it provides better security compared to older versions like SSLv3 or TLS 1.0/1.1.
4. Configure and Activate HTTPS/SSL: To enable HTTPS communication, configure ICM (Internet Communication Manager) parameters such as ssl/ciphersuites, ssl/client_ciphersuites, etc., based on your specific requirements.
5. Check the Application Server: Ensure that all necessary services related to application servers are running properly before proceeding with the installation of an SSL certificate.
6.Install SSL Certificates: Obtain valid digital certificates from a trusted certification authority (CA) or generate self-signed certificates using transaction STRUSTSSO2 within SAP GUI interface.
7.Execute Task List SAP_SUPPORT_HUB_CONFIG : Execute task list “SAP_SUPPORT_HUB_CONFIG” via transaction STC01 after completing all previous steps mentioned above.This will help you validate if everything has been configured correctly.
