To Configure the RFC to FILE scenario ,Proceed as Follows

*****************************************************************************

a. Create an RFC Destination to XI in transaction code (SM59)

b. Create new destination of type T (TCP/IP)

c. Make sure you select Registered Server Program option before writing your program ID

d. Write you program ID (remember it's case-sensitive)

e. In the gateway host and gateway service write the values of your Application system - business system (not the XI server)

****************************************************************************************

Step2:Repository

*****************************************************************************

1) From the Integration Builder page, select “Integration Repository”. This will launch the Java Web Start Application. Log with the User id and password from the Integration Server

2) Choose Tools->Transfer from System Landscape Directory->Import Software Component Versions

From the list of Software Component Versions, Choose your own software component version .Click Import.

3) On the left hand side frame ,software components will appear .Select your own software component. Open your own software component. Double click on this software component. A screen will appear .Switch to display mode. After doing this first add a namespace under Namespaces.

The namespace is ur:rfctofile

4) Then choose the Radio Button ->Import of RFC AND IDOC interfaces from SAP systems permitted

After this specify the connection parameters to the R/3 system:

4.1) System IS :sapfox

4.2) Client IS :800

Then Save it. The new namespace will be visible under software component version node in the left frame.

Under the namespace node, you will find the section Imported Objects. Right click on it and choose Import of sap objects. A wizard will display. In the wizard provide the following details.

4.3) Application server:172.25.5.7

4.4) System number: 00

4.5) User name:developer

4.6) Password: Password of Sap R/3 system.

Then click continue .You will find IDOC and RFC node. Click on this node and select the Idoc or Rfc which is to be imported from R/3. Click Finish to start the Import. Close the wizard. After doing this the Rfc and Idoc will be available into XI as Message types. So no need to create any Rfc or Idoc Structure. We need to create a structure for file only.

5). Under your namespace in the left frame, expand the node “Interface objects”. You will find a node “DATA TYPES”

************************************************************************************

6) Create new data types.

*************************************************************************************
