# Record SAP GUI scripts

The following steps describe some prerequisites to recording an SAP GUI script.

### Configure the application server for scripting

- sapgui/user_scripting TRUE
- sapgui/user_scripting_force_notification FALSE
- sapgui/user_scripting_set_readonly FALSE
- sapgui/user_scripting_disable_recording FALSE

When recording a multi-protocol script in which the SAP GUI client contains web controls, close the SAPLogon application before recording.

1. Select Help > Settings.

1. Make sure that all users have logged off from the server.

2. Select Help > Settings. Click the F4 Help tab.

3. In the Display section, select System defaults.

4. In the Display portion of the System defaults section, select Dialog.
