Specify the Connections and Credentials alias for ERP Customization Mining (ERP-CM) to connect to the ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) system.

## Before you begin

You should install ERP Canvas and add credentials there before you install and configure ERP-CM. For more information, see [Configure the ERP Canvas credentials and connection](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/~Cgmk9YxVWZ0XN~o~M4JsA "Connect ERP Canvas to a system of record (such as SAP) directly or using a load balancer to enable access to the ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) system. You must select an existing, configured connection when you set up an ERP system.").

Role required: sn_erp_integration.erp_admin, sn_erp_mining.erp_admin

## Procedure

1. Navigate to AllERP FoundationERP Customization Mining.
2. Select the connection status icon (![Credential alias page link]()) in the side panel. {#set-up-erp-customization-mining__ecm-connection-status-icon-select}
{#set-up-erp-customization-mining__select-setup-step}
3. Select the Select connection button.  
   If you have already configured a system connection and want to use a different connection and credential, see [Update an ERP-CM connection](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/TRoH8yoToO5sRt3hS_0dxQ "Update the Connections and Credentials alias for ERP Customization Mining (ERP-CM) to change the connection to the ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) system. For example, you may want to change from a non-production system to a production system.").
4. In the Connections and Credentials alias box, choose the credentials you configured in ERP Canvas from the Select connection \& credential alias field.
5. Select Connect.  
   ERP-CM begins extracting data from the connection.
6. Refresh the Issues to review list and the Executed tasks list by selecting their respective refresh icons (![Refresh the Executed tasks list]()).  

## What to do next

After the system is connected, you can check the connection status and investigate errors at any time on the Connection status page. For more information, see [Check and troubleshoot the data refresh status for ERP Customization Mining](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/0BbK5Z7FmoffgiDBzOqfYg "Check the data refresh status to find out when ERP Customization Mining (ERP-CM) most recently loaded ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) data from the system of record.").
