SOAP adapter doesnt support Fault Messages.

You need to handle your own soap envelope and map/parse it that way.

Hello,

In the RFC define and exception "APPLICATION_ERROR". Reimport the rfc into xi, this time in interface mapping u will find there message tabs request,response,fault for the rfc.

Define fault message in your outbound interface as specified in the blog and map this fault message to the fault message of the imported RFC.
