XI submit SAP program

[Former Member]

Hi.

My scenario is LEGACY-XI-SAP.

I have to create a file in SAP and after the file has been created run an standard SAP program to process the file posted with XI.

I am using a BPM that currently is creating the file in the specified path and then with a 1 minute delay call a second RFC that contains a SAP sentence to SUBMIT to the specified program using an existing variant.

XI Monitor shows that both RFC's has been correctly called but there is no FILE PROCESSING flow for the second RFC.

Does anybody know how can I trigger an STANDARD SAP program from XI?

Many thanks

David Castillo.

Hi,

Since you are already using the RFC with submit, I guess another alternative is to use the ABAP Proxy instead of the second RFC, to call the SUBMIT Program. I have used it successfully.

However, if you want to continue with RFC, I think you can add some debug points in the second RFC call (and in the submitted program too). For example, adding messages to a log file such as 'Calling the SUBMIT program', 'Accessing the File XXX', ETC. My guess is that the error may be related to the file access.

Hope this hepls,
