Note:
- Each certificate has a limited validity, it expires on a certain date. A new certificate with updated/extended validity is delivered with the BEx front end patch (see: Current BI ADDON for SAP GUI 760).
- SAP releases the next patch before the old certificate expires, so you just have to install the newest patch to have a valid certificate.
- If the root certificate 'VeriSign Class 3 Code Signing 2010 CA' has been expired, you will have to update it as described in note 711648.
4 - Certificates in workbooks
- A new created workbook which is based on the SAP default workbook is signed and saved with the current installed certificate. So in the workbook a certificate exists with a limited validity.
- When opening an old workbook containing an expired certificate you will receive a warning from Excel stating that the certificate with which the workbook was signed has expired. The warning messages state that the signature is invalid. It is not really a problem since it is just informing you about the status of the workbook. You can still work with the workbook.
- When you save a workbook containing an expired digital certificate Excel automatically removes the invalid certificate from the workbook before saving it.
Note:
- The SAP delivered SAP Default Workbook contains macros. For security reasons this workbook has to be digitally signed so that customers know that the workbook is from SAP and safe to use.
- Workbooks which have been created by the customer do not necessarily require a signature. The customer determines if the workbook should be saved with a digital signature or not. If it is saved with a digital signature then the signature is typically the signature of the customer whom the workbook belongs to.
Here is how you can find the workbook certificate/signature:
