Inbound Idoc processing issues - Partner Profiles - error status 56

Question

Hello All,
I'm having a little difficulty posting an idoc coming from MDM.  It's a CREMDM04 xml coming from an MDM system.  It is getting mapped through PI and is being split into ADRMAS02 and CREMAS04 Idocs.  The message is being passed through XI and being posted to the ECC system, but certain fields in the EDI_DC40 header table are not being populated correctly (i believe).  I'm using nothing but standard mapping/material from the SAP Business Content for XI.  After looking through the standard XSLTs i cannot find the field-to-field mapping where the fields below are being populated.
The RCVPOR value (SAP[SID]) is correct when i view it in SOAP Header, but does not appear in the remote system under the receiver port for the inbound idoc.
The RCVPRN value ([String Value]) is incorrect in the SOAP Header and does appear in the remote system under the receiver partner number for the inbound idoc.  How is the RCVPRN value being populated? 
SOAP Header in IDocOutbound tag
  <SAP:RCVPOR>SAP[SID]</SAP:RCVPOR>
  <SAP:RCVPRN>[String Value]</SAP:RCVPRN>
  <SAP:RCVPRT>LS</SAP:RCVPRT>
I've been trying to trace down the string value for the RCVPRN, but i cannot find it anywhere.  Perhaps i'm just overlooking it?
When i set the proper values (port = SAP<SIDofECC> and partner number = <LSnameof ECC>) using WE19 in the remote system then the partner profile is found and i'm left with different error to please specify an address group.
Any help is very much appreciated! :-D

Hi Jason ,
Just check out if you have done the following steps most of us make minor mistake here ....... I think this would solve your problem
To Configure the IDOC SCENARIOS ,PROCEED AS FOLLOWS

a) Choose create
b) Specify the name of the RFC destination
c) Select connection type as 3 and save
d) In the technical settings tab enter the details SAP SID/URL and system number#
e) Enter the Gateway host as same details above SID/URL
f) Gateway service is 3300+system number#
g) In the Logon /Security tab, enter the client, user & Password details of Destination system
h) Test the connection and remote logon.Both should be succesful
2) Create Port Using Transaction Code IDX1
