HI,

A fault message is a message that describes an application-specific error situation.

Fault message types are designed for application-specific errors that occur on the inbound side and that are reported back to the sender or persisted in monitoring.

· In the synchronous case, when an application-specific error occurs on the inbound side, instead of sending a response message back to the sender, the application can send a fault message to handle the error.

· The fault message of the application for an asynchronous ABAP server proxy is persisted for monitoring. In the case asynchronous of Java server proxies, the fault message is part of a negative application acknowledgement (see Acknowledgments).

Application-specific means that the application on the inbound side triggers the error itself because, for example, the request message did not contain sufficient information.

Rambabu,

fault datatypes are used when you send the error message to the sending system or receving system.

supoose if the you doing synch scenario from legacy to r/3 if r/3 is down you send fault message type as response to legacy indication their failure.

Hi Rambabu,

Refernces Fault message types for the Exception handling .

Fault message types corresponding to the standard SOAP Fault type can be included (execepted in the outbound Asynchronous case)
