How to modify the background image after you login SAP (Transcation code SMW0, SM30)
SAP provides different kinds of interface settings, like the Windows desktop theme, you can set any color style you like. However, its’ background picture is rather monotonous; after seeing the blue pool of formal system, or small icon of IDES system every day, do you wish to see a different image? Many companies when implementing SAP decide centrally to use their own logo of the company or the name and logo of their SAP system to be shown as background picture.
Here are ways to change the background image after the system registry, such as your company Logo or print advertising.
Since the following steps are usually done centrally by your SAP system administrator, here is a description for you as a SAP system administrator on how to change the background picture after the change has been confirmed by your CIO.
The first step is to upload our own pictures.
First: Use transaction code SMW0 or through the menu "Tools -> Web Development -> Web Repository" (the Chinese system "Tools -> Web Development -> Web Resources"), start the Web resource database management function.
Then: Select “Binary Data” and hit the “Enter” key. Then click “Execute” button, or select the "F8" key on the keyboard. This opens the object list of the Web resource data base.
Next: upload pictures, click "Create (create)" on the application toolbar or press the F5 key keyboard, open the object properties of the input box, enter the object name (name must comply with SAP Knowledge Base object naming rules: start with Y or Z ; In addition, because the system allow to upload any type of file, in order to facilitate future use, the object name better contains description of the file types, such as adding extension name) and descriptions, then click the "Import (import )" button on the lower left corner. Next, choose your picture, click "Open" button to upload files.
Then you will be asked to select the From the development of object classes, if need to transfer to other servers, choose a development class, if only need to use the machine, use a local object on it.
After successful upload the system will automatically add an entry in the list of objects to illustrate our image has been uploaded to the server and you can use it.
The second step: upload the picture to set it as the background for the login page.
First, you need to open the data base table using transaction code SM30 view maintenance functions.
Then, enter the table name “SSM_CUST”, which is the emperor of SAP provides the interface to modify the registry settings for the table. Then click on "Maintain (maintenance)", a prompt will appear, indicating it is a cross-Client table, which will apply to all changes made to Client.
We can see the content of SSM_CUST table, there are many entries, there are 3 recordings which is related to our background image: HIDE_START_IMAGE, RESIZE_IMAGE, START_IMAGE, introduced here.
HIDE_START_IMAGE, the value "YES" means the login does not show background picture, "NO" that is displayed after login background image, here of course to fill in "NO".
RESIZE_IMAGE, the value "YES" means to automatically scale the image to fit the window size, "NO" said the picture size to maintain the original value unchanged. If the picture anyway lines, it is suggested to use "NO", because the system auto-scaling capabilities are poor, the picture is deformed seriously. If you have a larger picture or a photograph, then using "YES" is better.
START_IMAGE, to fill the first step we have just created the object name.
Next, when saving you will be asked to select a transport request number and save
Then open a new SAP window, you can find the picture you just uploaded already there.
