[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I am doing IDOC TO FILE Scenario.

I have done all the configuration.I have cretaed RFC,PORT,LS and Partner profile at both R/3 and

XI Side.

when I am trying to generate IDOC using we19 and I put the r/3 port,partner in sender and XI

port and partner in receiver it gives me error as "Port 'SAPCU6_100' does not exist in the table

of port descriptions.

Please help me.....

hi chirag,

I have created a port in idx1 but that is not there in idx2.

is it ok?

[Former Member]

HI,

Have u checked the port at the R3 end...and also at the XI end...IDX2 transaction is used for uploading the IDOC metadata. can u please check whether the IDOC metadata is loaded or not in IDX2 transaction...

Thnx

Saras,

First of all since your scenarion is IDOC to File and therefore there is no need to create the port & RFC destination at XI end. Only R/3 side port and RFC will require (which will point to XI).

< have created a port in idx1 but that is not there in idx2.>

Now coming to your ques. IDX1 is used to create the port in XI & IDX2 is used to load the metadata in XI, so in IDX2 you won't be able to see the port (which you are trying to see). )

What you can do is, check the port & RFC destination which you have created in R/3. RFC destination should point to XI and you should be able to connect to XI without any error by pressing the Remote connection button in SM59.

Thats what I said, you won't be able to see it, to use it you have to Key in (type it manually).

[Former Member]

Sorry I forgot ur scenario is IDOC to File..not the reverse one...

As sarvesh said u first check the RFC and the port at the R3 end.

Do let me know he outcome of the same.

Thnx

Hi Sarvesh,

My RFC is working fine.

u said tht I dnt need any port & RFC destination at XI end then how can I post my idoc.Can u tell me the step by step procedure for that?

[Former Member]

HI,

IDOC will not be posted but it will be send out from R3 to XI.....I hope u r doing the IDOC to FILE scenario....

Just for ur information can u please check ur configuration once again with the below weblog:

ALE configuration for pushing idocs from SAP to XI

Ok, tell me which IDOC you are going to send to XI system?

Since you are tesing it from tesing tool WE19, therefore you will require the receiver port (which you have created in R/3 and which points to XI) just give the port number, Partner No, Part Type, Message Type. Don't worry about the Sender port.

So after filling the control record, just press the Std Outbound processing button and see what you are getting.

after doing all these steps I am getting the error which I have mention in my problem.

I am sending FLCUSTOMER_CREATEFROMDATA idoc.

[Former Member]

and one more thing when I am tring to insert my idoc manually

in idx2 its not taking my RFC giving error as"RFC destination not fount for port SAPCU6_100" though my RFC is working fine.

I am able to remotely login in R/3 system and the name of the rfc given in port is also correct.

[Former Member]

Can you check the CLIENT No which you are using for this port?

[Former Member]

Recheck the port 'SAPCU6_100' again if it exists. Also check the RFC which you are using inside this port is working fine or not.
