Use this checklist to gather all necessary information before installing **New Relic Monitoring for SAP Solutions**. Complete the preparation sections first, then fill in the readiness checklist tables before beginning installation.

## Pre-installation preparation

### Verify your New Relic account

-   Confirm you have a New Relic account, or create a new account. Note which data center region it uses (US, EU, or JP).

### Prepare your list of SAP systems

For each **SAP system** you plan to monitor, provide the following information:

-   **System ID and clients**: Identify the system and its associated clients.
-   **Database information**: Specify the database vendor (e.g., **HANA**, **Oracle**) and its version.
-   **Software component details**: Include the SAP release and patch level for the following components:
    -   **SAP_BASIS**
    -   **Kernel**

### Designate a central SAP system

Choose one **SAP system** to serve as the central system for **New Relic Monitoring for SAP Solutions (NRM4SAP)** installation.

-   **Installation details**: Provide the **System ID** and client where the **ABAP component** and configuration will be installed.
-   **Proxy server information**: If a proxy server is used, specify its host name and port. Include any relevant proxy server policies for accessing the **New Relic One** platform.
