STEP 3 LOAD SAP GUI

• Where do I get SAP GUI? Answer: If you agency desktops are managed by ITS see
instructions here: https://pc.its.state.nc.us/eRoom/Beacon/Agencies/0_2456
• Otherwise proceed as follows: Get SAP GUI 710 installation CD. SAP GUI
Installation CD was distributed to your BST Technical Agents. Additional CD’s are
available at the BEACON Project office or available for download (Tech BST agents
only) from link: https://pc.its.state.nc.us/eRoom/Beacon/Agencies/0_24e4
• Read SAP GUI install parameters:

https ://pc.its.state.nc.us/eRoom/Beacon/Agencies/0_169a
• Install SAP GUI 710 which is the executable file: “Setupall.exe”. The following are
parameters that need to be set when installing the GUI.
-7- 04/30/2008
-8- 04/30/2008
The SAP GUI is now installed; you will need to load one patch for the GUI.
STEP 4 LOAD SAP PATCH

Install SAP GUI Patch 3
https://pc.its.state.nc.us/eRoom/Beacon/Agencies/0_1bbb
Patch 3 is a cumulative patch, you do not have to install previous patches.
-9- 04/30/2008
STEP 5 TEST RESITE SIMULATION

A Resite simulation file will be provided to insure it runs after installation of the ActiveX
controls. Go to:
http://help.mybeacon.nc.gov/beaconhelp/ESS%20and%20MSS/sim_ESS%20Simulation.
htm#TopOfPage and a Resite simulation should launch. If the simulation runs go to the
next step, eAssistant. If not, go the ActiveX plug-in installation, below.
Launch the eAssistant by going to
http://help.mybeacon.nc.gov/beaconhelp/Human_Resources/Benefits/b_r_PA20_Displayi
ng%20HR%20Master%20Data%20for%20Benefits.htm#TopOfPage to see whether that
web page is invoked. If no, go the ActiveX plug-in installation, below.
LOAD MSI FILE – ACTIVEX PLUG-IN

The Resite simulation and eAssistant require ActiveX plug-ins to work properly. These
files can be installed in one of three ways:
1. They’ll be invoked directly from the Resite web site and installed while
running the simulation;
2. They can be downloaded from the eRoom at:
https://pc.its.state.nc.us/eRoom/Beacon/Agencies/0_1bbd
3. They will be provided in a CD , or find the files in a CD provided to you as
SimulationPlayer.msi, WindowControl.msi files
Note that installing in any of these cases may require a reboot of your PC.
