More Information

Issues that are fixed in this update

This update fixes the following issues that were not previously documented in the Microsoft Knowledge Base.

Issue 1

The Web Service Configuration Tool crashes upon initialization because of an unsigned .dll file that is part of the tools package.

↑ Back to the top

Issue 2

The Web Service Configuration Tool gives a warning message when a workflow is selected: "Add-In component for workflow configuration is not found."

Issue 3

The Web Service Connector creates a new connection to SAP for every operation. The new connection remains active until the connection times out on the SAP side. The default time-out value is 30 minutes. This problem occurs when the cookie that is provided by SAP is not saved. To reproduce the expected behavior, open the web service configuration template in the Web Service Configuration Tool, select to rediscover all WSDL endpoints, and then save the updated template.

Issue 4

If there are errors when reference attributes are exported, the data that is reported back from the connector to the Synchronization Service causes the service to crash.
