Dynamic Logon Data in RFC receiver adapter?

[Former Member]

Does someone know if and how the logon data (userid) defined in the communication channel for a RFC receiver adapter can be dynamic overwritten? For example using information from the payload?

Scenario: A request for getting HR data is send from a legacy system to XI, mapped to a RFC and routed to R3.

The audit people want to see a real user login into the R3 system to execute the function module and not the technical user defined in the communication channel.

Great job guys........ we have the same problem ( or better saying : we had the same problem),

principal propagation fit perfectly our needs.

Great job.

Hi Juergen,

we are having the same scenario and could you please let us know if you found a solution for Dynamic Logon Data in RFC receiver adapter.

This is also very urgent for us.

Thank you so much in advance

xiuser,

this is supported today in the form of principal propagation.

It means that the user that will request the service in the client system (a web service for example) may be the same user that will consume the RFC in the server system (ERP).

Can you please explain a little bit more how to do this.

we wanted to use the same userid that is used in the webservice to execute the RFC function in the backend business system

Thanks

That's exactly what principal propagation is.

You just have to make some (quite a lot, actually) configurations to enable it.

Hi Juergen,

Did you ever figure out how to use a dynamic authentication with the RFC adapter? I'm running into the same scenario.

Any help is really appreciated.

P.S. I'm running on a tight schedule, so any quick information will be really helpful.

In that case, make a specific userid for that interface and create a comm.channel and use it.
