RFC to XI: Payload comes in garbled

[Former Member]

We finished and tested our scenario in dev and have moved the code on the abap side as well as the XI pieces to Test.

When sending an RFC from our SAP test system, if I look in the SXMB_MONI, the first node of inbound message payload is already garbled even before getting to the message mapping. The first part of it looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>

- <rfc:Z_BAPI_PRICING_SEND xmlns:rfc="urn:sap-com:document:sap:rfc:functions">

- <PRODUCT_PRICE>

- <item>

<PROD_ID>000000000001003484</PROD_ID>

<PRC_TYP_CD>9912</PRC_TYP_CD>

<CNTRY_CD> e<</CNTRY_CD>

<EFF_BEGIN_DT>0000-00-00</EFF_BEGIN_DT>

<EFF_END_DT>0000-00-00</EFF_END_DT>

<PRC_AMT>0</PRC_AMT>

</item>

• the prod_id is ok

• prc_type should have been 'WHL'

• country should have been 'US'

etc etc.

It's like the data in the payload doesn't match up with the xml. In our dev environment all works normally.

any thoughts?

Thanks!

Goto RFC Destination (Sm59) and look for the Unicode Radio Button, it has to be enabled!!!

Pete,

Thanks so much! That was exactly the problem. I saved the RFC Dest as unicode and it is now working. How does the point thing work? I just signed up. Do I have any points to award with?
