Error in RFC Function module

Hi Expert,
I am facign very strenge problem in the RFC function module.
I have passed the paramters to the RFC function module and getting the result back into the table paramters.
HWen i am trying to execute the RFC function module in the destination system , i am getting the result in the table paramerts.
but when i am trying to excute the same uising program then i am not getting the same result in the table pramters , value of sy-subrc is also 0 . and there is no dump in the source and destination system. not sure why this is not able to get the result.

Hello,
Can you please post the actual ABAP code that calls the RFC? Are you checking for the standard RFC exceptions?
Also have you manually tested the RFC in SE37, using the same RFC destination? (ie test it in the source system, calling the target system). This is to make sure that there are no communication issues.
cheers

BDC_NODATA error in RFC function module.

Hi ABAPers,
The error is 'The FORM "BDC_NODATA" does not exist' in Function group.
I have 2 function groups :Z_BAPI and Z_MB_BUS2017. 1. Z_BAPI was created by me. Customized BAPI FMs were worked fine in that group. now i copied FG :Z_MB_BUS2017 from FG: MB_BUS2017 along with i customized 14 function modules and i activated the group. now these FMs are working fine. but error BDC_NODATA is comming in all function modules which are in Z_BAPI group.
when i activate: below error is coming:
Syntax error in program
Source code LZFPG_BAPIU16                                  Line     43

Error in RFC; 'Function module "/GRCPI/GRIA_USR_GET_DETAILS" not'

Background: I have setup my sandbox to do the End User Logon so that guest users can come in and create access requests. This was configured and tested and it was working.
Then, we connected the Active Directory system, and that is also working so that when I go in as an authenticated user (NOT END USER LOGON), and create an access request, the user data is pulled from Active Directory.
NOTE: First, we finished the EUL, then weeks later, we connected LDAP. Now I am reviewing and this happens.
So today, I start seeing this error that's in the subject line. I'm attaching a screenshot.
As the sandbox was configured and working, I haven't gone and changed anything except for the user data sources, which is pointing to LDAP.
I went and changed the user data sources back to what it was before, and I'm still seeing this error.
Not sure where to look because what info I have found appears to suggest a plug in version discrepancy.
We don't have the GRC plug in installed on the GRC system. (separate question - should we have it installed on the GRC system?)
So ... I need some help please - this one is eluding me.
Thank you.
Santosh

Hello Santosh,
The error message is mentioning that a plug-in function was not found. You will need to check if all connectors involved in your user data source (details) have the plug-in installed. This function module is only available in Plug-in add-on (GRCPINW).
I would check the system in the following order:
1 - Check the User data source details (connectors involved)
2 - Check whether the connectors have plug-in installed and if they have the minimum compatibility requirements (according to SAP note 1352498)
3 - Check the integration scenarios (1562760)
4 - If you need to configure LDAP for this matter, use SAP note 1584110
Hope I could help.

Unknown error calling a RFC Function Module in BODI

Hi all,
I am having an issue identifying the error that my batch job in BODI is giving with regards to a RFC function module call in my query. The value returned by the standard parameter 'AL_RFC_RETCODE' are square characters ( ).
At the completion of the job, the error message 'RFC CallReceive error <Function ZCT_INDSLS_SLS_TRN_INSERT: Invalid request.. Invalid request.>.' is being output.
Correct me if I'm wrong but the parameter 'AL_RFC_RETCODE' should return standard values as per the techical manual provided to undertand any errors that might occur during a RFC FM call.
Can anyone help me on this?
Best regards,
Andrew Wong

Hi Senthil,
I think you answered your query in your question itself
The user ID and password need to be maintained in RFC destination in SM59.
Go to SM59 and then click on test connection..if it does not ask for ID and passwoed that means correct ID and password is maintained in SM59 otherwise maintain it.

RFC function module without RETURN parameter thows error in XI. Please help

Hi Experts,
I have a File to RFC scenario in XI. The RFC function module that I am using at the receiving end does not have "RETURN" parameter. So when I test my scenario I get "RETURN" parameter not found error on SXMB_MONI.
So is it mandatory that RFC function module must have RETURN parameter when used in XI?
Is there any work around to avoid the error without changing the RFC function module?
Please help!
Thanks
Gopal

In my senario the QOS is best effort because it is a Sync.
But the function module is sync in nature as it is returning a parameter called SO_Docs and Ret_Msg. The Ret_Msg contains the error info but it not of BAPIRET2 type.
So is there any way to avoid this error when my QOS is best effort?
Please help!

Rfc function module call error

Hi Abaper,
I'm doing upgrade from 4.7 to ecc 6.0 currently and encounter problem in one of the rfc function module that we used. I've tested the connection to destination using sm59 and the connection is successful.
As an information, in the rfc setting, the target system is not Unicode system.
When I test using se37 and put the rfc destination in my function module call, I always encountered system_error exception. There's no issue with this rfc call before in 4.7 system.
Please help me on this. Thank you.
Edited by: Abraham Bukit on Sep 3, 2008 2:36 AM

Hi,
I had the same issue in the past and solved it in the following way.
If the destination system is not Unicode please try to set the password for the communication user set in SM59 using only upper-case characters and taking into account that the password shouldn't be longer than 8 characters.
Hope this will help.

Backgroung job failing becuase RFC function module is running in Dialog

Hi,
I have a program which is calling a RFC function module. I am running this program in background as a job. Now this function module which is in other system is running in Dialog and giving a time out error and the job is failing becuase of that.
I tried call fucntion 'test' in background task
destination 'XVZ'
tables
test = 'test'.
But this is not working, i can still see this function module running in Dialog in SM50. Any suggestion?
Thanks,
Shweta

Hi !
RFC-Called function-modules are running in a dialog workprocess of the
target system (they could not run in a batch proecess !!).
That means the do have the same "Timeout" limitations than any other
Dialog-Process.
What you can do:
- The Dialog "Timeout" could ce increased by your SAP-BASIS
- If they could not - you should "shorten" the LUWs in the target-funktion.
...means - put a COMMIT WORK an any point the work is done.
After a COMMIT WORK the "Timeout" Counter beginns at 0 !
Hope that helped....

Calling RFC Function module from JAVA

Hi All,
We have created a RFC Function Module for Billing Plan tab in Sales order (BDC). The function Module contains BDC. When we are running the same function module in SAP it is working fine. But when the FM is called in Java , it is allowing only maximum of 5 entries , when we trying to insert at 6th position in billing plan tab, we are getting an error.
Can any one help on this.
Points will be rewarded for helpful answers.
Thanks & Regards,
Kiran I

I think the problem is because of the number of lines displayed on the screen in the BDC session in the Billing Plan.
You might have to add the page down logic to your BDC program.

Exception error_message in rfc function module

Hi all,
I am getting a short dump Raise exception in my R/3 system when calling a RFC function module in R/3 for printing a label in LOFTWARE. The error analysis shows the that exception condition 'Nlink exception' condition raised . The rfc destination is working fine and also i have included the predefined exceptions system_failure and communication_failure and also I have used RFC_PING function module before calling teh rfc for printing . Yet it is giving short dump.
I heard that if we include one more exception error_message with return code 99
ie exceptions
    system_failure = 1
    communictaion_failure = 2
    error_message = 99. there will be no short dump.
Can anyone explain me why the return code for exception error_message is not 3 but 99 and also what is the significance of this.
Need your help.

from dump no information is available also it last occured 5 days ago so refreshed from our system..
I want to know what is the importance of the return code 99 here...
can anyone clarify this concept and aslo genrally in rfc exception handling communication_failure and system_failure can handle all type of exceptions then why error_message exception is added with a return code of 99..

Where should i call the rfc function module? in xi or in r/3

where should i call the rfc function module?
for the synch scenario: file < -- > xi <---> rfc
i know the type of rfc is tcp/ip; but i'm not sure with the followings,
and with some trials i can not even see any message via rwb even all the setting
can be activated without errors.
where should i create the rfc destination? in r/3 or xi
where should i call the rfc via abap program? in r/3 or xi
i guess the calling program should belong to the different server with the rfc itself....
so confused....
Thanks for your reply!!
Jun

if i create the destination in xi point to r/3, then i call the rfc use the destination in r/3 right ?
The call doesnt use the destination in R3. XI has the RFC destination which is just used to connect to the R3 system
but where i need to create the fm via se37? in xi or r/3 ?
In R3

RFC function module exporting

Hi..
when I am trying to export some paramters and tables in RFC function module, i m getting error as well as a warning message stating performance will reduce.
So please help me to solve the issue.
Thanks
Vimalraj

You are getting this message because you are exporting tables 'by value'. Since this will cause the complete data in that internal table to be copied into a new memory area this might impact the performance of that function in case the table has a lot of data in it.
However - for an RFC you can only define parameters to be called by value, hence this is not an error in your case. It just lets you know that the performance will suffer when you have lots of data in your internal table compared to a function that would pass the data by reference - but you don't have that option for an RFC anyway.
Hope that helps,
Michael

Error creating RFC function /BODS/ABAP_RUN : RFC_ABAP_EXCEPTION-(Exception_Key: FU_NOT_FOUND, SY-MSGTY: E, SY-MSGID: FL,

Hi Expert,
I try to execute job on development system but he showed error "Error creating RFC function </BODS/ABAP_RUN>: <RFC_ABAP_EXCEPTION-(Exception_Key: FU_NOT_FOUND, SY-MSGTY: E, SY-MSGID: FL, SY-MSGNO: 046, SY-MSGV1: /BODS/ABAP_RUN)>. Notify Customer Support.
In ECC I use ABAP execute option as Execute Preloaded. How to solve this problem? Thanks for your advise.

Dear,
have you checked in EXX wether the function group /BODS/BODS is available?
Some notes here:
You will have to have to import the new ABAP Program group "BODS/BOS" which you can find in the local install folder...
Here are some details:
Installing Functions on the SAP Server
SAP BusinessObjects Data Services provides functions that support the use of the ABAP, BAPI, and
IDoc interfaces on SAP servers. You will need some or all of these functions in the normal operation
of the software in an SAP environment. These functions perform such operations as dynamically loading
and executing ABAP programs from Data Services, efficiently running preloaded ABAP programs,
allowing for seamless metadata browsing and importing from SAP servers, and reporting the status of
running jobs. Some of these functions read data from SAP NetWeaver BW sources.
You must upload the provided functions to your SAP server in a production environment. It is
recommended that you always upload the functions to your SAP server whether you are in a
development, test, or production environment. The functions provide seamless integration between
Data Services and SAP servers.
The default installation places two function module files for SAP servers in the ...\Data
Services\Admin\R3_Functions\transport directory. You then upload these files to SAP servers
using the SAP Correction and Transport System (CTS) or manually. Using CTS allows for version
control as the functions evolve across releases.
The installation provides two versions of transport files (depending on the server version you are using)
to install the functions on the SAP server. To obtain the names of the latest transport files for installing
or upgrading these SAP server functions, see the readme.txt file
And I've found those files and text files in the local install folder....in:
Program Files\SAP BusinessObjects\Data Services\admin\R3_Functions
(that's where I've installed it).
There you'll find some descriptive txt as how to proceed.
After installing, it might happen that the executing user is missing some authorizations.
Here my authorizations team helped me by tracing the user and then adding the necessary rights.
Sure hope this will help you.
Notes to check:
see SAP Note 1919255
Note 1916294

Doubt in RFC Function module

Hi,
I am creating one RFC in that i need to declare one import parameter whose length is is.
when i am giving like i_exclide like kna1-loevm is not accepting.
when i am declaring like i_exclude like char1.
it is giving error like reference parameters are not allowed in RFC.
anybody can tell me how to declare.
thanks,
maheedhar

Hi,
Go to se37,
Give ur RFC function module and click change.
Go to "Import" tab , you can find a checkbox "Pass Value" , check this checkbox.
Now you try to compile the code , you wont get that error.
Reward points for useful answer.

How to capture errors when a Function module is called as BACKGROUND TASK

ENDIF.
ENDFUNCTION.
In above code how to capture 'EV_RC' when FM is called as background task.

Prakash,
CALL FUNCTION IN BACKGROUND TASK allows no IMPORTING parameters, so that your code will produce a syntax error.
The calling program can only handle errors of remote function calls (RFC) if these are either
- synchronous RFC (that is CALL FUNCTION ... DESTINATION ...) or
- asynchronous RFC (that is CALL FUNCTION STARTING NEW TASK ... DESTINATION ...).
Both synchronous and asynchronous RFC allow the capturing of errors by means of exceptions. But that is a different topic.
