Introduction
SAP ITS 2.0 acts as the gateway between your web server and the backend SAP
R/3 application server by adding an HTML-based user interface to SAP
applications. It iscomposed oftwo parts, WGate and AGate.WGate establishes the
connection between ITS and the Web server and forwards user requests to AGate,
which establishes the connection to the SAP R/3 system and performs processing
tasks that are required to move data between SAP R/3 applications and the
Internet. WGate resides on the same computer as the web server, as a server
extension.
