Scroll to the bottom and click Import Certificate.

Pass the certificate that we downloaded and click OK.

Once the certificates are uploaded click on Add to Certificate List and Save. Perform the same for other 2 certificates we downloaded.

In S/4HANA go to transaction /n/SDF/ALM_SETUP

Enter the target name and hit enter then next fields will be enabled.

Click on Create/Update destination.

Copy the contents from downloaded JSON file and paste them. Click Green tick after we pasted the JSON entries.

Click on Green Tick as shown below.
