Call RFC from Excel

I have created rfc function, and it works fine in SAP, but when I try to call this function from Excel I get '0.00000', data type is correct.
VBA code:
    Set F2 = functionCtrl.Add("ZFUNC")
    F2.exports("PARAM1") = "123"
    F2.exports("PARAM2") = "321"
    F2.Call
    MsgBox F2.Imports("EXP1").Value
Any suggestions?

it's is ok now

Call RFC from DELPHI Windows Services Program

Hi all,
Are there any way to call RFC from DELPHI Windows Services Program?
Best regards.
Munur EBCIOGLU

Hi again Bhagat,
1. Yes, it's included on 7.4 ABAP Stack (SAP NetWeaver 7.4 SP8 - Optimized for SAP HANA, Cloud and Mobile - Service Release 2 available now!). In a recent customer, SAP licences GW by user but there are other license model like session licensing: https://store.sap.com/sap/cp/ui/resources/store/html/SolutionDetails.html?pid=0000009470&catID=&pcntry=US&sap-language=EN&_cp_id=id-1385059687642-0
2. You could install as an AddOn on your 7.3 system, there are many options depending on your desired infrastructure: SAP Gateway deployment options in a nutshell For example our customer have deployed Central Hub Gateway in a standalone stack ABAP to act as an standalone oData bridge between ABAP/nonAbap systems.
3. You could deploy SAPUI5 apps in 7.x, Java Web Servers or HTTP Web Servers. You must consider your SSO scenario:
- SSO Logon Tickets. You will need to configurate SSO Logon Tickets between SAP NW Portal & SAP NW Gateway & your backend (ECC, etc). In order to pass SAP session cookie you will need setup SAP Web Dispacther and access portal & gateway throught SAP WD with the same domain.
- SAML2 Tickets. This scenario lets you provide portal & gateway on different domains enabling SSO. You could configure SAP NW Portal as an Identity Provider and other systems must trust SAP Portal as IdP.

How to call RFC from Power Builder

Hi,
I am using Power Builder Tools and I want to know how can i call RFC from Power Builder
Thanks for ur reply

Hi,
Although I have not worked with Powerbuilder, I am sure if you have a certain level of proficiency with it, you will be able to code your logic that will call your wrappers written in VB/C/.NET etc. Check out the wonderful weblog by Thomas Jung on integrating ActiveX controls with ABAP Control Framework at https://www.sdn.sap.com/sdn/weblogs.sdn?blog=/pub/wlg/995.

hi all.
i want to create my own log for each interface.
i saw this blog:
/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2006/09/20/xi-abap-mapping-logs--more-standard-better-visibility
my doubt is how to catch the error that i see in SXI_MONITOR y put it in a Sub-Objetc.
For example: in sxi_monitor i get the error for my interface NMUCustomer: "No receiver could not be found" or "Error Mapping Traformation".
I created an Object called ZNMUCUSTOMER and a Sub-Objetc called ZERROR.
what i must do to get the error I see in monitor and assign it to Sub-Object??

Calling RFC from custom connector

Hi,
I am developing a custom connector for UWL to get tasks from 3rd party system.
I need to call a RFC from backend SAP system to complete Input data for this 3rd party provider.
I assume that I have to make an RFC call from getItems() method of connector.
Any idea how to call a RFC from UWL custom connector code?
Please help.
Thanks & Regards,
Amey

Hello Karri,
Yes, I am aware of two ways of calling RFCs from Java code.
Normally, I use following approach to call RFCs from my other Portal Components (JSPDynpages): -
IPortalComponentRequest request = (IPortalComponentRequest) this.getRequest();
IPortalComponentContext myContext = request.getComponentContext();
IPortalComponentProfile myProfile = myContext.getProfile();
String sapSystem = myProfile.getProperty("SystemIdentifier");
ISystemLandscapeWrapper landscapeWrapper = (ISystemLandscapeWrapper) UMFactory.getSystemLandscapeWrappers().get(0);
ISystemLandscapeObject systemLandscapeObject = landscapeWrapper.getSystemByAlias(sapSystem);
IJCOClientService clientService = (IJCOClientService) PortalRuntime.
getRuntimeResources().getService(JCO_CLIENT);
request.getNode().putValue(LOCALE_NODE_KEY, Locale.ENGLISH);
IJCOClientPoolEntry poolEntry = clientService.getJCOClientPoolEntry(sapSystem,request);
JCO.Client client = poolEntry.getJCOClient();
client.connect();
IRepository repository = JCO.createRepository("repository", client);
IFunctionTemplate functionTemplate = repository.getFunctionTemplate(Z_BAPI_EMP_GBU_GET);
JCO.Function function = new JCO.Function(functionTemplate);
JCO.ParameterList importList = function.getImportParameterList();
importList.setValue("US", "OBJTYP");
importList.setValue(request.getUser().getUniqueName(), "USRID");
client.execute(function);
JCO.ParameterList outputList = function.getExportParameterList();
gbuCountryBean.setGbu(outputList.getString("GBU"));
gbuCountryBean.setCountry(outputList.getString("COUNTRYCODE"));
gbuCountryBean.setPersArea(outputList.getString("PERS_AREA"));
gbuCountryBean.setCompanyCode(outputList.getString("COMPANYCODE"));
When I tried implementing same in UWL custom connector, I am not able to get instance of 'request' object.
Any hints/ideas on this?
Hence as an temporary alternative, I wrote following to successfully execute RFC.
mConnection = JCO.createClient(sapclient, sapuser,
sappassword, "EN", saphost, sapsysnumber);
mConnection.connect();
mRepository = new JCO.Repository("GetLeaveRequestFlag", mConnection );
IFunctionTemplate ftemplate = mRepository.getFunctionTemplate(Z_BAPI_CHECK_LR_TO_APPROVE);
myFunction = new JCO.Function(ftemplate);
JCO.Field OBJECT_TYPE = myFunction.getImportParameterList().getField("OBJECT_TYPE");
OBJECT_TYPE.setValue("US");
JCO.Field USERID = myFunction.getImportParameterList().getField("USERID");
OBJECT_TYPE.setValue(p_userID);
mConnection.execute(myFunction);
JCO.Field leaveRequestFlag = myFunction.getExportParameterList().getField("FLAG_LEAVE_REQUEST_RECORD");
mConnection.disconnect();
But only catch here is that I need to create & maintain SAP logon credentials for a particular user manually.
It is not possible to single sign on connector user into SAP system (like its done above).
Any thoughts on this?
Thanks & Regards,
Amey

Calling RFC from JSP : development component

I created JSP that call RFC from SAP/R3.
I have problem with the DestinationService.
Without DCs, it worked very good.
But since I created a DC for my JSP project, I have exception at run time regarding

Calling RFCs from Web through XI

We have used SAP.NET connector in the past to call RFCs from ASP.NET pages from our public website. We have now decided to use XI as the enterprise integration engine going forward.I am interested to know whether anybody has used XI to call RFCs from ASP.NET webpages. I do know that the XI to SAP calls would be made through RFC adapter.Will the communication from ASP.NET page to XI be thourgh the HTTP adapter ? or is there any other smarter way. Can somebody point me to sample code for the calls through http adapter or a how to guide?
cheers
Ramesh

Hi
U have scenario like this ASP.NET->XI->RFC, that means u will send a value from the ASP.NET page to RFC thru XI and then this RFC will give result which will come to ASP.NET frontend.
For this go thru this blog it will help u to understand how to communicate from ASP.NET to XI

Calling RFC from VB

Hi,
I'm trying to call an RFC enabled function module from excel. My code in VB is:
    Set theFunc = sapConn.Add("ZGETREVENUE")
    theFunc.Exports("VBELN") = strSalesOrder
    ResultsOk = theFunc.imports("OK_CODE")
    Set objSalesOrder = theFunc.Tables("TBL_RETURN")
The table TBL_RETURN is coming back fine but the return code OK_CODE is always 0. Can someone point out what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks,
Gill

Sorry Gill, Dinesh is right.
The call method returns a true/false condition (true indicates a correct execution)
The code should look something like
Set theFunc = sapConn.Add("ZGETREVENUE")
theFunc.Exports("VBELN") = strSalesOrder
If theFunc.Call Then
   ResultsOk = theFunc.imports("OK_CODE")
   Set objSalesOrder = theFunc.Tables("TBL_RETURN")
else
   msgbox "Call error"
end if

RFC from Excel

Hi,
    i want to update a SAP table with the info from excel.Request you to provide inputs on how to make RFC call from the Excel Macro.
Regards,
Kalyan Chakravarthi.M

Here is some sample code I had written to fetch data from SAP. It uses a RFC enabled FM - RFC_READ_TABLE for reading a DB table. You will have to find a RFC enabled FM that lets you update the DB table you want to update. ( I dont think there is any generic RFC enabled FM for doing that, off course you are free to create a custom one ).
Here is the sample code for using the FM from SAP EXcel macros.. I had developed it using a sub routine in a class module for using across Excel sheets..
Sub Get_Report_List()
Dim SAPFunCtl As New SAPFunctions
Dim RFCFunc As New SAPFunctionsOCX.Function
Dim I_QUERY_TABLE
Dim T_OPTIONS
Dim T_FIELDS
Dim T_DATA
Dim Row As Integer
'Pop up for Automatic Logon.
SAPFunCtl.AutoLogon = True
'Set the Function Module to be called
Set RFCFunc = SAPFunCtl.Add("RFC_READ_TABLE")
'Set the Import, Export & Table Parameters
Set I_QUERY_TABLE = RFCFunc.Exports("QUERY_TABLE")
Set T_OPTIONS = RFCFunc.Tables("OPTIONS")
Set T_FIELDS = RFCFunc.Tables("FIELDS")
Set T_DATA = RFCFunc.Tables("DATA")
'Query Table TRDIR
I_QUERY_TABLE.Value = "TRDIR"
T_OPTIONS.AppendRow
T_OPTIONS(1, "TEXT") = "NAME LIKE 'Z%'"
T_FIELDS.AppendRow
T_FIELDS(1, "FIELDNAME") = "NAME"
T_FIELDS.AppendRow
T_FIELDS(2, "FIELDNAME") = "SUBC"
If RFCFunc.Call = True Then
    If T_DATA.RowCount > 0 Then
    'Clear Sheet3 - Data
        Sheet3.Cells.Clear
        For Row = 1 To T_DATA.RowCount
        Sheet3.Cells(Row, 1) = T_DATA(Row, "WA")
        Next Row
        Sheet3.Activate
    End If
Else
    MsgBox "Connection failure."
End If
End Sub
Hope it helps.

Calling RFC from Adobe Interactive Form

Hello,
After creating and calling Adobe Interactive form from ABAP web dynpro, within the form designer is it possible to call RFC or Business Object method from the form script to get the data back from SAP for specific Click events?

Yes,
this is possible, but not through pure RFC, but using webservices and webservice enabled function modules within SAP.
Technically it is quite simple. Create a functionmodule, and create a webserve from that (all SE37 or SE80 but from WAS 6.40). Generate a WSDL (with the Java tool) and import that into the form that you are designing. From there you can bind the data from the dataset (as defined in the WSDL) to screenfields or treat the data any other way Javascript can.
BTW. I only managed this so far by using anonymous logins, so with a password and username bound to the webservice (in SICF).
Hope this helps, regards, Hans Gmelig Meyling

Call RFC from java (j2ee) / call to j2ee from R/3

hello
i´ve browsed the forum for some time to find how to:
1.) call ejb from r/3 system via rfc
2.) call rfc enabled function modules on r/3 from within an j2ee enviroment
but i didn´t quite get it, because i was a bit confused about all the mentionend techniques
what i found out about
1.) use ejb (session bean) and jndi; configure RFC-Engine Service (we use sap webas)
2.) use jco / jca
(or all rfc enables rfm´s are available as web service, but didn´t find anything about this)
so my question:
are these the preferred techniques to connect j2ee (webAS) <-> r/3; if not are there any others, maybe easier methods?
and last but not least: are there any good online tutorials for this topic?
thanks in advance
franz

Just as a short partial reply.
The generic Java --> RFC method is JCO (it will work on older versions as well), you can think of it as a JDBC driver where R/3 is the database, it behaves very similar in many ways.
EJB development on SAP WAS is really not any different from EJB development on any other J2EE server. The deploy tool is superb. very easy to use and the JNDI registry, etc. are standard stuff...
ABAP to EJB calls, haven't looked at this in over a year now, but back then we did a Proof Of Concept based on information at http://help.sap.com and it did work indeed. The only thing was back then that you needed to do a few tweaks to get it to work properly.
As mentioned above, look at the JCO examples and then you can ask more specific questions once you get stuck.
Good Luck!
Cheers,
Kalle
