LINK TO THE MACEWAN UNIVERSITIES ALLIANCE SERVER FOR SAP SOFTWARE
 
  • Below are the download procedures for the "FAT SAP client" 500+MB download, which is needed for your desktop. If the application is downloaded and installed within the AU environment (ELC, AU-Main Campus, CIM, CLC, etc.) a number of ports need to opened by computing support, please have your technical people contact kewald at athabascau.ca

    If the SAP client is downloaded to a home computer using DSL or Cable services, there doesn't seem to be any problem installing and accessing the system.

    [For tutors and instructors only] Access to prebuilt curriculum (shared resources) from other university alliance members is through the "innovation watch" website.

    "To get access to the Innovation Watch website, please send an email to innovation.watch@sap.com and indicate for each faculty member their full name, their email address, and their phone number. They should be set up with user-id's and passwords within 24 or 48 hours.
