Dynamic Logon Data in RFC receiver adapter?

Does someone know if and how the logon data (userid) defined in the communication channel for a RFC receiver adapter can be dynamic overwritten? For example using information from the payload?
Scenario: A request for getting HR data is send from a legacy system to XI, mapped to a RFC and routed to R3.
The audit people want to see a real user login into the R3 system to execute the function module and not the technical user defined in the communication channel.

That's exactly what principal propagation is.
You just have to make some (quite a lot, actually) configurations to enable it.

RFC Receiver Adapter (Problem)

Hi All,
I have configured RFC Receiver Adapter : Here i have imported a Z FM for example
"" Z_API_DOCUMENT_CREATE_TEST "" having below import paramaters:
LF_DOCNUMBER     TYPE     BAPI_DOC_DRAW-DOCUMENTNUMBER
IV_PF_HTTP_DEST     TYPE     RFCDES-RFCDEST
IV_PF_FTP_DEST     TYPE     RFCDES-RFCDEST
LF_FILENAME     TYPE     BAPI_DOC_DRAW-DOCUMENTNUMBER
1) Now i use MM to fill in two parameters : LF_DOCNUMBER , LF_FILENAME
If my FIle is of kind : test55.pdf     --> LF_DOCNUMBER = test55
                                                       LF_FILENAME       = test55.pdf
For this i have checked in Sender File Adapter "Adapter Specific Message Attributes"
So i write UDF to capture Filename and Filename with extension to fill above shown parameters.
Now i saw target xml after mapping in CC monitor of RWB is as below
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <ns0:Z_API_DOCUMENT_CREATE_TEST xmlns:ns0="urn:sap-com:document:sap:rfc:functions">
<IV_PF_FTP_DEST>SAPFTPA</IV_PF_FTP_DEST>
<IV_PF_HTTP_DEST>SAPHTTPA</IV_PF_HTTP_DEST>
<LF_DOCNUMBER>xierror</LF_DOCNUMBER>
<LF_FILENAME>xierror.doc</LF_FILENAME>
</ns0:Z_API_DOCUMENT_CREATE_TEST>
But LF_FILENAME is getting populated to my Z FM at runtime but LF_DOCNUMBER works fine filling up with value.
But when i run the FM using F8 it works , what could be the problem.
Any advice
regards
Srinivas

Hi,
The problem is with the Data types used for LF_DOCNUMBER.
Make this as Char or Numeric in FM and then try. If its of any packed values then conversion will create the problem
Thanks

RFC Receiver adapter issue. Pls advice

Hi All,
When XI is sending data back to R/3 system though RFC Receiver Adapter I am getting the below error. Any suggestions
Error Category XI_J2EE_ADAPTER_RFC
Error Code RECEIVER_GENERAL_ERROR
Pls advice.

Rick, your question is very unspecific, so anyone trying to help can only guess very roughly.
So I only have a very rough hint for you, which is the FAQ for RFC adapter.

Error in RFC Receiver Adapter: functiontemplate from repository was null

Hi Friends,
i am working on JDBC -> RFC Scenario, JDBC Sender Adapter is working fine, but RFC Receiver Adapter is throwing this error message... can some one help me to solve this issue...

Hi,
I think the logon details what you are giving in Receiver CC may be wrong. Check all those details like Application Server,System Number,User,Password and client.
Thanks.

RFC Receiver Adapter and RFC Destination -- Help

Hi,
I would like to configure the RFC Receiver Adapter for the invokation of a RFC on SAP System (Name: ALPHA) using a RFC destination provided by another system named BETA.
I have set External Server as server type.
My first question is: I have to quote an application server gateway and a gateway service. Is this information related to a service on ALPHA or BETA?
My second question is:
It is also necessary to provide a Programm-ID. The destination on BETA is a R/3 connection and doesn't have a programm id. Where do I get this from?
And my last question is:
Is at all possible to use the RFC destination on BETA?
Any help is really appreciated...
Kind regards,
Heiko

Hi Heiko,
I don't fully understand your need but:)
since both of your systems are SAP systems
why are you trying to use external server?
can't you just call RFC on BETA
and inside this RFC on beta call RFC on ALPHA?
in a sync or async way?
can you tell a little more about your requirement ?

Xml file in dynamic file name in file receiver adapter

Hi,
I'm doing the dynamic file name in file receiver adapter. I have done as per instructed in /people/jayakrishnan.nair/blog/2005/06/20/dynamic-file-name-using-xi-30-sp12-part--i
All turned out okay. I have got the file name I require. Except that the file format is XML and I need to suppress the filename node occupied by the dynamic file name.
The content conversion mentioned in /people/sravya.talanki2/blog/2005/08/11/solution-to-the-problem-encountered-using-variable-substitution-with-xi-sp12, does not seem to solve my problem. As it is only for file format other than the XML one, because we only do the content conversion if we want to "convert" the format of the content from XML to the other format.
Does anybody have the solution to my problem? thanks in advance

Thank you Raj for the direction
The way to do it is :
1. In ID, advanced tab, put a check on the adapter-specific message attributes - file name.
2. Put a "*" on the file name scheme
3. In IR, create a UDF to set up target file name :
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container
.getTransformationParameters()
.get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
// set up file name for receiver adapter
String SourceFileName = conf.get(key);
conf.put(key, TargetFileName);
return " ";
4. Map the above UDF to the header level of the target structure.

Idi

RFC Receiver Adapter Problem- Sending Blank XML Node

Hi,
I'm using the RFC receiver adapter to call a RFC in R/3 from XI 3.0
In the payload XML one node is blank as I want to pass a blank parameter to the RFC. But in R/3 the blank node is getting converted to #
Can anyone suggest how can I pass a blank node while calling the RFC using RFC receiver adapter in XI 3.0?
Thanks in advance,
Dipankar

Hey
Please check the outbound payload in sxmb_moni and RWB,if the field is blank there,then it means that PI is passing correct value to ECC.its possible that RFC has been coded in such a way that it converts blank spaces to #.Please look at RFC documentation in that case and see if it helps more.
If the outbound payload itself in PI is showing as # instead of blank,then check the message mapping in PI.
Thanx
Aamir

RFC Receiver Adapter Issue

Hi all,
I'm sending a sales order from my ftp server to my R/3 system through RFC. I want this sales order to be created in the R/3 system, For this i'm using BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2. Now when i'm configuring my RFC Receiver adapter using the help given on the help.sap.com under "adapters"->"rfc adapter"-> "configuring the rfc adapter", i'm not able to find the parameters mentioned under " Advanced Mode" Heading. In this page, it says that after checking the Advanced mode checkbox, one should get the additional parameters and then we need to set the indicater for the parameter "Commit Control for Individual BAPI Calls". Since i'm not able to find these parameters even after checking the chekbox, i'm stuck. I understand that if i don't get this parameter, my BAPI will not commint and hence the sales order will not be created in R/3.
Kindly suggest.
Regards.
Naveen

Hi Naveen -
>>><i>In this page, it says that after checking the Advanced mode checkbox, one should get the additional parameters and then we need to set the indicater for the parameter "Commit Control for Individual BAPI Calls". Since i'm not able to find these parameters even after checking the chekbox, i'm stuck.</i>
For this I agree with Sameer. It's probably an adapter metadata issue. As mentioned your XI system needs to be at least on SP14. Also, in the Int. Repository, check SAP BASIS 6.40 SWC SP Level by right clicking on the SAP BASIS 6.40 SWCV, then Display Support Package - this is where the adapter metatdata is delivered. By default, the highest one displayed is wha'ts current on the system. You should see at least SP14 here. Incidentally, this does not confirm the SP level that the rest of the XI components are on, just this SWC.
>>><i>When i checked in the integration engine, transaction sxmb_moni, i found that the message was processed successfully ! But when i checked in my R/3 system, i didn't find any sales order ! Kindly give me some inputs for this issue.</i>
It probably failed in the adapter engine. Check the adapter engine monitor via the RWB - so once in RWB, goto Message Monitoring, select Adapter Engine (important), then look for your message.

Jin

Error in RFC Receiver Adapter: functiontemplate from repository

Hi Experts,
i am working on JDBC -> RFC Scenario, JDBC Sender Adapter is working fine, but RFC Receiver Adapter is throwing this error message... can some one help me to solve this issue...
Message processing failed. Cause: com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.RecoverableException: error while processing message to remote system:com.sap.aii.af.rfc.core.client.RfcClientException: functiontemplate from repository was <null>: com.sap.aii.af.rfc.afcommunication.RfcAFWException: error while processing message to remote system:com.sap.aii.af.rfc.core.client.RfcClientException: functiontemplate from repository was <null>
Thanks
Srikanth

Possible reasons are
The XML document, which was send to the RfcAdapter, is not a RFC-XML document. So the root element name of this document is not the name of a function module and thus can't be found in the metadata repository.
The metadata repository doesn't contain an entry for this function module name. Normally the metadata repository will be an R/3 system and it's function module repository can be searched with transaction code SE37.
Here my suggestion is, if you are using Java/xslt mapping, write your code in line with result structure of your mapping instead source pay load structure. May be helpful.
Cheers

SAP PI Issue with RFC Receiver Adapter

Hello,
Iam using File-RFC scenario, where every thing executed fine, but in ECC iam unable to get the DATA coming from PI, Iam using Z RFC to insert data to a Z table.
I did'nt any errors in PI, is there any option to find the output data at receiver adapter where iam using RFC adapter.
Kindly Help,
Thanks in Advance,
Ravi.

Yes. If you enable the logging you should be able to see the post mapping xml.
Message Staging and Logging Options in Advanced Adapter Engine of PI 7.3x

Did you debug the RFC with test data? were you able to insert something?

RFC Destination type RFC Receiver Adapter?

What is the RFC destination type for Receiver RFC Adapter?

When we use the RFC Adapter?
SAP systems up to and including SAP Release 4.6 are not able to exchange data by using XML messages and http. The only way you can connect such systems to the Integration Server directly is by using the RFC adapter (or the IDoc adapter).
You require the sender adapter if you want to use the Integration Engine to process RFCs. The RFC adapter converts the incoming RFC data to XML message format (RFC XML) so that it can be processed by the Integration Engine.
You require the receiver adapter if the determined receiver system expects the data from the Integration Engine to arrive in RFC format. In this case, the Integration Engine must transfer the received XML message (RFC XML) to the RFC adapter. The RFC adapter converts the RFC XML message to a valid RFC call and executes the call.
The following three scenarios are possible when using the RFC adapter and the Integration Engine:
    1) SAP R/3 to SAP NetWeaver Application Server
    2) SAP NetWeaver Application Server to SAP R/3
    3) SAP R/3 to SAP R/3
When we use ABAP Proxy ?
SAP systems based on Web AS 6.40 and higher are able to exchange data by using messages and HTTP. These systems can use ABAP proxies to connect to the Integration Server.
To connect the platform-independent message interfaces, which are stored in the Integration Repository, to the Integration Server, use the ABAP proxy interface.
Please Reward the points if it's helpful...

Ramana.

RFC receiver adapter not getting timed out

Hello Everyone,
I have a scenario like this:
Web-Service --> PI -->RFC (using receiver RFC channel)-->Response back to PI from RFC --> response back to Web-Service
This RFC is taking more than 5 minutes to give response back to PI but still I am not getting timeout in PI.
xiadapter.inbound.timeout.default is set to default value 180000.
Is there any other place where I should check for setting timeout like 10 seconds for rfc receiver channel?
Thanks,
Satarupa

Dear Satarupa,
You need to set ICM timeouts at Integration Engine level.
So go to SXMB_ADM and clic on Specific configuration. Edit table and set parameter as follow:
Category = RUNTIME.
Parameters = HTTP_TIMEOUT.
Current Value = [segs] depens your needs.
If you hasn't this parameter in SXMB_ADM set this parameter yourself.
