The SMSAP instance in SMIS integration is used to enable and disable the SMSAP integration. By configuring the SMSAP instance, you can slso specify the integration parameters such as SMSSMEX accessing URL and SAP clients. After the SMSAP instance is enabled, the customization to incident is visible and you can select a SAP Solution Manager client for incident information exchange. If the SMSAP instance is disabled or removed, the incident form customization for incident exchange with SAP Solution Manager will be invisible to the end users. Note that the incident information exchange from SAP SolMan to Service Manager will not be affected by SMSAP SMIS configuration. For more information about SMIS, refer to Service Manager Help Center > Integrations > Integration Manager.
