Lock Queue for a particular Partner No.

[Former Member]

Hi All,

We want to lock the RFC queue for a particaular partner No. is this possible in SAP?

Background : We are having a maintainace activity on one of our middle ware, hence there would be changes done to a particular and critical interface. The middle ware team has requested that they should not receive any IDOCs during this time but as the activity is for a substantially high time, we cannot stop the batch which generates the critical Idocs during time as the critical IDOCs can be generated only for N and N-1 day only (Activity may last for 3-5 days depending on the outcome). We would want to lock the queue for a particular Partner No. so that once these IDOCs are generated they can be waiting in queue untill the queue is released and the target system has all the IDOCs required by the time the system is handed over to the bussiness.

P.S : We are transfering IDOC through TRFC call to the target system.

Can you please suggest?

Regards,

Anand.

Hi Anand,

We would want to lock the queue for a particular Partner No.

Which Partner No you are discussing about ? It is business partner or IDOC partner profile ?

Hi Deepak,

I am talking about IDOC partner Profile Number.

Hi Anand,

Each IDOC partner profile will have RFC destination associated with it.

You can disable the RFC when doing maintenance work and resume the RFC once the maintenance activity is completed.

Hope this helps.

Hi Deepak,

Can you please let me know how the above can be done?

Hi Anand,

As per SAP documentation

Creating an Outbound Partner Profile (SAP Library - IDoc Interface/Electronic Data Interchange)

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/dc/6b7f5643d711d1893e0000e8323c4f/content.htm

When you assign a port number for IDOC partner profile, this port number is mapped to a RFC destination.

Either you can hash out port <-> RFC destination mapping or hash out the RFC destination host mentioned in SM59.

Hope this helps.
