Step by Step Guide Details for RFC to File and File to RFC scenario

[former_member209912]

Hi Guru's

Good day to you. I am tyring to develop some scenarios based on RFC adaptor. so i want to start up with basic scenarios like RFC to File scenario(Here i just want to pull some data from SAP using RFC and put it in destination folder as an text file) and FILE to RFC scenario (Here i just want to take some data from the file and update into SAP).

For doing these scenarios i would like to request you people to send me the step by step guide which explains me about the complete steps of configurations required to do the RFC to FILE scenario and FILE to RFC scenario.

I found some scenarios and i am in confused state. so i request you to please put your experience to help me out.

thanks in advance.

Regards

Raj

Rajesh and Aaron answered your question, but I want to give you just a recommendation. Use ABAP Proxy instead of RFC if you can. Once you know how to develop ABAP Proxys you will notice that is easier and better to develop, test and monitor the scenarios.

Hi Marshal, do you have a link to any good examples of accomplishing by Proxy? We are currently developing something and maybe we should use it instead of this RFC approach if it is truly better in developing, testing, and monitoring.

Hi Aaron,

I don't know your scenario and your ECC and PI versions but I learned how to use ABAP Proxy more than 1 year ago with the following tutorial:

Edit--> The forum doesn't allow me to post external link, just search "ABAP Proxy Communication Scenario" in google and visit the 1st result

The way to develop ABAP Proxys has changed a little if your PI is 7.1. In the ECC side, the transaction SPROXY looks much better too if you have a recent version of the ECC.

I've found that SDN Document. Maybe the scenario is not the most simple to start with ABAP Proxy but is very well documented and is for PI 7.1. The document also handles the inbound and outbound proxys

Here is a blog post and a wiki describing more about RFC to File configuration.

Better try this scenario which involves both and with out using BPM
