 Disable Auto-Login At times, It is required to perform some operations directly using an open password-protected keystore without auto-login keystore.

VCP modules can be implemented on the same instance where other modules like Order Management, Purchasing, Field Service etc are implemented. But, the regular practice is to use a distributed system. In a distributed environment we implement VCP on a separate instance (called the destination instance) and bring in the data required for VCP from another instance called the Source Instance. VCP Instance setup steps Create the source instance entry into VCP. A single VCP instance can plan for many source instances. Every source instance has a unique 'Instance Code' which we give as the entry while creating the 'Application Instances'. Functional Setup: Navigation - Service Supply Chain Administrator --> Admin --> Instances Important Fields: Instance Code -- Unique Source Instance Code Version -- Version of Source Instance. (Ex: R12.1) From Source to APS -- Database Link to get data from source ...
