Dear Dominic,

Do you have the Three AS's on three diff host? Did you check the host name and/or ipaddress of the host where the external program is and have you configured it correctly in all the three AS's?

Is this particular external program on a different SAP system?

COs then you will also need to configure th gateway settings

Who is using this RFC connection?

Dear Dominic,

You need to change the RC Destination type.

Since it is within the same SAP System, you should specify the Destination type as R3 (number "3") or Internal and not TCPIP
