Hi Folks,

I want to know the difference between RFC destination of type "H" and "T".

In what instances/tasks we would use them?

Looking forward for your valuable answers...

Cheers,

Ram.

RFC Destination Types:

HTTP: For connecting to the Web Servers that suport HTTP protocol.

TCP/IP: For connecting to Non-SAP systems that does not support the RFC communication.

REWARD IF HELPFUL.

Type T destinations are connections to external programs that use the

RFC API to receive 'Remote Function Calls'. You must specify the host

name and the pathname of the program to be started. The communication

method depends on how you select the program location:

H means http connection we connecting through some url.

Generally http conn. is not safe.

tcp/ip connection is used for non-sap systems.

Assign points if useful.

By entering the type of RFC connection, you specify the communication method (TCP or SNA) and the logon type in the target sys

Type T (TCP/IP) destinations are connections to external programs that use the RFC API to receive 'Remote Function Calls'. You must specify the host name and the pathname of the program to be started. The communication method depends on how you select the program location.

Type H is the HTTP connection to R/3 system

Type G is the HTTP Connection to external server
