Hi,

Hi santhosh,

If we use the RFC Adapter the connection type is TCP/IP..

then why we need type of connection has 3.

Hi nandan.

The connection type is T and not 3.

It was a mistake.

For a File to RFC scenario:

1) maintain a RFC destination for the R/3 sys on XI server (SM59)

2) Define a port for the RFC destination.(we20).

For RFC to File :

1) maintain a RFC destination for the XI server on R/3 sys (SM59)

2) Define a port for the RFC destination.(we20).

Pragati.
