FYI...

If you want to connect to R/3 system to SAP XI using RFC adapter then it's TCP/IP connection. Type 'T'

If it's SAP XI to SAP R/3 using RFC adapter then you give the system details in the Adapter and don't need RFC Destination

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/33/c6e63b60c25767e10000000a11402f/content.htm

The above should give u the parameter then you need to define.

Hello ,

No, we need not create any RFC destination to call the RFC.

Just configure the RFC (Receiver adapter) just by entering SAP logon credentials.
