Hi ,

The program id (case sensitive)is used when you create RFC destination of type tcp Ip for rfc as a sender adapter.

Here the program id together with gateway service and gatewayhost you have in R/3 like system (in transaction rz70).

However till such time you have the same mentioned and activated in rfc sender communication chanel...you will not be able to test it .

Once the rfc sender adapter is created then you can it in transaction smgw.(menu-Goto Logged on Clients).

Use ...Let's just say you have a report which collects some data ...then you make a rfc enabled f.m. where in the table parameter specify the internal table where you have collected the data.Destination you specify here is the RFC destination you created with the program id.

Guys can two rfc CC same use Program ID or RFC Destinations? If yes then whats the use of using same RFC destination for the same?

Hey

yes we create only one RFC destination.

see RFC destination created in SM59 basically identifies the XI system and tell R/3 to send all the IDOC etc to that RFC destination(IP address).

RFC destination together with port(WE21) helps R/3 system physically identify the XI system.

we basically create only 1 RFC destination coz thats all we need.all the IDOC's can use the same RFC dest and port,ofcourse in partner profile we need to maintain inbound and outbound IDOC's properly

i have seen cases where creating several RFC dest started givin errors in message flow from R/3 to XI

Thanx
