XI 3.0 AND R/3 4.6 INTEGRATION HOW TO?

[Former Member]

Hi there,

Here is my scenario. I had installed a Web Application Server ABAP+Java System (6.40) and XI3.0 on one machine. Now, what I want to do is make RFMs and BAPIs on R/3 4.6C to be web services. Could anyone show me how to do this job? Tutorials or weblogs would be better.

Tom,

Welcome to SDN.

I don't think you can covert BAPI / RFM in 4.6C to Web Services. It is possible only from WAS 6.20.

So, in this case, the options that you have to communicated between XI and 4.6C are IDOC / RFC Adapters.

Let me know if this answers your questions.

Ravi

Hi Allampallam,

Thank to your answer. Yes, what I want to do is to use RFC Adapter. I need tutorials or step-by-step instructions of how to setup RFC Adapter. After then, I can invoke web services from WAS 6.4 and actually executing RFMs and BAPIs on backend R/3. I had searched many sites for RFC Adapter reasurces, however the articles I got were seldom mentioned about how to setup. They all assumed readers are well familiar with XI and have everything setuped. So, could anyone help me with that?

Hi Tom,

the most difficult is the sender RFC adapter:

have a look at question 1 (adapterds section)

for a step by step guide:

but if you want to invoke web service then you have to use soap adapter
