Dump file triggering an RFC interface using XI

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have developed an interface, where a RFC is called and returns the data. The triggering also happens with that function module being called remotely with XI system (Interface) as the destination.

However, the program that triggers the interface dumps saying the FM does not exist. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Ravi,

I'm assuming you are using CALL FUNCTION with the DESTINATION Parameter. Certain things to remember :

• The FM should be defined as RFC enabled.

• The FM should exist in destination system.

• The data to be retrieved should exist in destination system.

• Not all FMs from R/3 are available in XI.

Why would you want to trigger an RFC that executes in XI ? Basically what this means is that the data you want to retrieve is in XI !!! So when the RFC executes on the destination system, it will process in (& fetch the data from) the XI system. For all this to happen (if desired!) the Called FM should exist in the destination system.

Hope this helps.

Thanx,

Homiar.

I was interested in this interface and how it works from XI and R/3 perspective. Can anybody give any links or docs or screenshots for this kind of interface?
