Hi,

The SAP Gateway is the agent between the J2EE Engine and the SAP System.

To do this, you choose: transaction SWU3 -> Guided Procedures -> Maintain Guided Procedures Gateway. .

SAP Gateway parameters: use Gateway host and Gateway service of the SAP System for which you want to run the BPM Runtime, that is, the SAP System you specified in the Admin Workset when configuring the endpoint alias.

Hope this wil help you.

Each instance of an SAP System has a gateway. The gateway enables communication between work processes and external programs, as well as communication between work processes from different instances or SAP Systems.

Gateway Processes

The SAP Gateway is made up of various processes:

· Gateway read process

· Gateway monitor

These processes are described in the following topics.

Earlier gateway releases that support DCAM and SNA have additional gateway work processes (gwwp, gwwp.exe).

Gateway Read Process

Gateway read (gwrd, gwrd.exe) is the main process in the gateway system.

It is started by the application server (dispatcher) and checked by it periodically.

The gateway reader receives and processes all CPI-C requests.

If the executable gwrd program is called without parameters or with the switch -help, the program outputs a description of the possible command parameters, as well as all the patches.

Gateway Monitor

The gateway monitor (gwmon, gwmon.exe) is used to analyze and administer the SAP Gateway.

When you start it, you initially get a list of active CPI-C connections. You can call up all the other monitor functions via a menu.

You can monitor the gateway from the SAP System (transaction SMGW) or from the operating system.

The SAP Gateway carries out CPI-C services within the SAP world, which are based on TCP/IP. These services enable SAP Systems and external programs to communicate with one another.

CPI-C services can be used either in the ABAP program or for the external programs via the interfaces.

As RFC (remote function call) is based on CPI-C, all RFC connections also pass through the SAP Gateway.

An SAP Gateway is installed on each Application Server. To see the list of all application servers for any R/3 system, execute transaction SM51. To see all the Gateways connected to the SAP system, execute transaction SMGW.

Hello all,

Does anyone know how to call a Windows PC program from ABAP, but not on my frontend.

I mean, I know it exists:

CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES->EXECUTE

But that works only for my PC, and I need to run a program on another PC in the network.

Thank you.
