How to trigger RFC Func Module from XI.

Hi Everyone,
I am trying to implement a scenario where in the data is passed from
RFC (async) <--> (async) BPM (Sync)<--> (Sync) SOAP
I trigger the initial RFC function module in the background by running a report in R/3 to send data async to BPM.
But how do I trigger the receiving RFC (Async) in R/3 from XI to post the data sent by synchronous SOAP service.
Regards,
Ashish

Hi,
1. You can make the RFC as Sync so that you need to worry.
2. In BPM 1st step will be receive that is RFC Async, 2dn step is Send to SOAP Sync and what you can do is...
Get the SOAP response and have once more Send step in BPM and trigger that RFC you watnted to.
Thanks,
Prakash

Hi,
To call the RFC in mapping u need to create the RFC lookups...check these links.
How we have to create the lookups?

How to create RFC function module and how to call this function module

Hi,
i want to know step for creating RFC function module and then How to use this function module from some other sap system.
Thnaks,
jigar

Jigar,
To implement a remote function module in ABAP, perform the following steps:
Register the module as remotely callable in the RFC server system.
In the function module Administration screen (transaction code SE37), set the field Can be called via REMOTE CALL. Registering a module as remote causes an RFC stub to be generated for it.
Write the code for the function module.
Create the destinations.....................
Displaying, Maintaining and Testing Destinations
To display, create or modify destinations, choose Tools ® Administration ® Administration ® Network ® RFC destinations or enter transaction code SM59.
Remote Destinations are stored in table RFCDES. The RFCDES table describes logical destinations for remote function calls.
It is not possible to maintain the RFCDES table directly.
You can also access logical destinations via the Implementation Guide (IMG) by choosing Tools ® AcceleratedSAP ® Customizing ® Execute Project ® SAP Reference IMG.
In the Implementation Guide, expand the following hierarchy structure:
Basis
Application Link Enabling (ALE)
Sending and Receiving Systems
Systems in Network
Define Target Systems for RFC Calls
Displaying Destinations
The initial screen for this transaction displays a tree:
Different connection types (i.e. partner systems or programs) are possible. For further information, see Types of Destinations.
To display all information for a given destination, double-click it, or place the cursor on it and press F2 .
To search for a destination, press the Find button and specify your selection. You get a list of all entries matching your selection. Place the cursor on the one you want, and press F2 or simply double-click the destination. All information for the given entry appears.
Creating Destinations
On the destinations overview screen (transaction code SM59), the connection types and all existing destinations are displayed in a tree structure.
All available connection types are explained in Types of Destinations.
To create a new RFC destination, press the Create button. A new screen is displayed with empty fields for you to fill in.
If you want to create a new destination
As you create a remote destination, you can specify a particular application server or a group of servers for a balanced distribution of system load.
For details of the destination parameters, see Entering Destination Parameters.
Changing Existing Destinations
On the destinations overview screen (transaction code SM59), the connection types and all existing destinations are displayed in a tree structure.
You can display all information for a given destination by double-clicking it or pressing F2 on it.
To change an existing destination, double-click it, or place the cursor on it and press the Change button.
For details of the destination parameters, see Entering Destination Parameters.
Testing Destinations
To test a destination, choose the appropriate function from the Test menu.
Connection (also available via the Test connection pushbutton)
Authorization (checks logon data)
Local network (provides a list of application servers)
You can use the CALL FUNCTION statement to call remote functions, just as you would call local function modules. However, you must include an additional DESTINATION clause to define where the function should run:
CALL FUNCTION RemoteFunction
DESTINATION Dest
EXPORTING
f1 =...
f2 =...
IMPORTING
f3 =...
TABLES
t1 =...
EXCEPTIONS......
The field Dest can be either a literal or a variable: its value is a logical destination (for example, "hw1071_53") known to the local SAP System. Logical destinations are defined in the RFCDES table (or the TRFCD table in R/2 Systems) via transaction sm59 or the following menu path: Tools ® Administration, Administration ® Network ® RFC destinations. You can also access logical destinations via the Implementation Guide (IMG) by choosing Tools ® Customizing ® Enterprise IMG. In the Implementation Guide, you can then choose Cross-application components ® ALE ® Communication ® Define RFC destination.
The remote function call concept, for example, allows you to access a function module in an R/2 System from an ABAP program in an R/3 System. If you want to read a customer record from your R/2 Systems database, create a remotely callable function module in the R/2 environment which retrieves customer records. Call this function from your R/3 System using a remote function call and listing the destination for the target R/2 System:

How to trigger an xi communication from abap report?

Hello,
I would like to ask if there is a blog, howto or something about How to trigger the communication in an abap programm. The communication will be either rfc->ftp or rfc->jdbc. So how can I tell XI to call that rfc to start the communication (from r/3 as abap programm)?
thank you.

Hello,
about nr1:
When I set the DESTINATION parameter in a abap report, doesn't this mean the system where the rfc is available? Because when I do it like that my abap report would look for the rfc there and not in r/3 itself. Isn't that right?
e.g.
CALL FUNCTION 'RFC_on_r3'
DESTINATION 'XI.rfc.dest'
So you think that should work?

RFC func module name changing on transport

Hi
We are using web service to push data into BI from XI. we are following the guide "How to Integrate XI and BI in SAP NetWeaver 2004s".
Accordingly, we have used the RFC FM name generated while activation of WebService DataSources to create the proxies. The XI system is using the same RFC names to connect to BI.
Now, when we are transporting the DataSources from Dev to QA environment, the RFC functional module names are getting changed in the DataSources. Hence our entire development becomes ineffective.
Any suggestion on how to prevent the FM names from changing during transport?
Thanks a lot,
Sushmita

Hi Sushmita,
Did you know how to solve your issue? Because we have this problem same with you. If you know how to solve. Could you please to reply me.
Thanks a lot.

How to call a function module from a transformation

Hi,
Could somebody please let me know how I can call an abap function module from a transformation (abap xslt program). I know how to call the class methods from transformation, but how do i call a function module..?
Thanks,
Shashi.
Edited by: Shashi Kanth Kasam on Apr 8, 2010 12:45 PM

Ya. I can do that. But I don't want to use a class and a method to call that function module. Want to directly call function module from transformation. Is that possible..?
Thanks,

Problem with RFC function module from R/3 to CRM

Hi, i have a RFC function module created in R/3, this is the code:
function Z_CRM_PRODUCTO_INTERLOCUTOR.
""Interfase local
*" IMPORTING
*"     VALUE(GV_VKORG) TYPE VKORG
*"     VALUE(GV_VTWEG) TYPE VTWEG
*"     VALUE(GV_MATNR) TYPE MATNR
*"     VALUE(GV_KUNNR) TYPE KUNNR_V
*" EXPORTING
*"     VALUE(GV_KDMAT) TYPE MATNR_KU
*"     VALUE(GV_POSTX) TYPE KDPTX
*" EXCEPTIONS
*"      NOT_FOUND
UNPACK GV_MATNR TO GV_MATNR.
UNPACK GV_KUNNR TO GV_KUNNR.
select single KDMAT POSTX
          into (GV_KDMAT, GV_POSTX) from KNMT
          where   VKORG = GV_VKORG
                  and VTWEG = GV_VTWEG
                  and KUNNR = GV_KUNNR
                  and MATNR = GV_MATNR.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
    RAISE NOT_FOUND.
ENDIF.
endfunction.
When i call this function from CRM, i do it like this:
CALL FUNCTION 'Z_CRM_PRODUCTO_INTERLOCUTOR'
DESTINATION LV_RFCDEST
EXPORTING
    GV_VKORG = lv_vkorg
    GV_VTWEG = ORGMAN_H-DIS_CHANNEL
    GV_MATNR = ORDERADM_I_WRK-ORDERED_PROD
    GV_KUNNR = WA_DATOS_PER-N_PAGADOR
IMPORTING
    GV_POSTX = IT_POS_LINE-DESCRIPCION
    GV_KDMAT = IT_POS_LINE-material
EXCEPTIONS
    not_found = 1.
where:
it_pos_line-descripcion type string
it_pos_line-material type string.
Well, my problem is that when debugging, in R/3 the 2 return values have the correct value, but when they are passed to CRM they have only one position.
As i've been told, it was working ok, but it's being wrong since we made a ¿conversion to unicode?. Maybe I should change the type of return ???
Thanks in advance !!!

Hello Maria,
Make sure you define your parameters in CRM exactly the same way as in R3, do not use type string here.
So:
it_pos_line-descripcion type C char 40,
it_pos_line-material type C length 35.
Kind regards,
John.

Debugging RFC function module from ECC to CRM

Hi All,
My requirement is to debug an RFC function module present in CRM(7.0) system from ECC(6.0) system. A report program in ECC will call CRM custom FM. I found many posts in SDN with the same issue and tried to implement suggestions provided there. But I couldn't succeed. The approach I followed is:
I logged in to ECC report program and kept an external breakpoint just before the function module call.
I logged in to CRM system, opened the function module and kept an external breakpoint there.
In both the systems I provided the dialogue userid( id through which I log in to SAPGUI) in the system->settings->debugging option.
In CRM I activated the external break point in transaction SRDEBUG.
Now when I execute the report program in ECC, control stops at the breakpoint. If I press F5 at the function call, control is not going to the external break point set in the CRM FM. I am getting output of FM directly.
I tried with different settings like turning on the check box for IP matching and session breakpoint active immediate, switching to classic debugger etc. I also tried to provide the RFC user id instead of dialogue user but system throws exception saying only dialogue userids are allowed. I found that by inserting an infinite loop statement, control goes inside the RFC CRM FM but I prefer not to change the code.
Please let me know if I missed anything.
Thanks and Regards,
Naren

Hi,
Debug RFC calls
When an RFC function module is called it is usually not possible to debug the call, using the below techniques we can achieve the same. For this example we are calling an RFC enabled FM in ECC system from CRM system.
Scenario 1: Calling a custom RFC FM
STEP 1: Add an infinite loop in the remote custom Function Module (adding a u201CDO. ENDDO.u201D statement at the start of the FM would be enough).
STEP 2: Execute your program in the CRM system. The execution stops at the RFC call, because of the infinite loop.
STEP 3: Now login to the ECC system and go to transaction SM51 select the process which is executing the RFC and navigate to the menu: u201CProgram/Session->Program->Debuggingu201D this triggers the debugger session in a separate window.
Scenario 2: Calling a Standard RFC FM
When we are debugging a standard program we cannot add the infinite loop, hence we cannot go to SM51 and debug the work process. The RFC destination for the ECC system has a User specified, the RFC function module gets executed using this users credentials. Usually the basis team set up the RFC user as non Dialog user, this does not allow debugging. Contact your Basis team and get this changed to a dialog user enabling you to debug RFC function calls via the normal debugger.
Note: User name configured in the RFC destination (transaction SM59)
Note: User type for the RFC User (transaction SU01D)
Hope this will be helpful..

How to call custom Login Module from JSP

Hi,
I am stuck with the following issue:
1) Exactly as presented in help.sap.com (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/3f/1be040e136742ae10000000a155106/content.htm) I created custom login module and deployed it as a library on J2EE server. When I configured it to be used for my applications in the Security provider but I am getting "No user name provided" exception everytime when my applications use this custom login module.
2) I realized that I would need to call my custom module somewhere within my application (simple JSP) using LoginContext class and then use MyLoginContext.login() spec to initiate login process. But I am not able to pass CallbackHandler parameters from JSP application to my custom login module.
So I have the following questions:
1. Can I pass parameters using LoginContext and CallbackHandler from JSP to my custom login module (created as exact copy of HELP.SAP.COM example) or this module cannot be used this way.
2. How to pass CallbackHandler correctly to my custom login module from JSP. When I am trying to use CallbackHandler, I am getting "Abstract Class cannot be called" error.
I'd appreciate any little help on this matter.
Thanks and regards,
Mike

You have two alternatives to do this:
You can declare your JSP as a protected resource with the use of the deployment descriptors of the application (web.xml) and add the custom login module in the authentication stack of the application. This way, you will use container-based authentication, i.e. the Web Container will enforce the authentication and it will call the custom login module before it dispatches to the JSP. I recommend you this approach because it requires less coding and it makes the whole thing a matter of configuration. The configuration can be later on enhanced or changed runtime without the need to re-build and re-deploy the application. If you choose this approach you can go to the documentation of the server for help on how to modify the login module stack of the application.
You can also use programmatic authentication by using JAAS API. To do this you need to create a custom security policy configuration with login module stack containing the custom login module, and then use the standard JAAS mechanism - new LoginContext(<configuration>, <callback-handler>).login(). This approach requires that you write your own callback handler and handle any LoginException.
Let us know which approach you prefer and whether you have difficulties implementing it!
