Need help with scenario BPM Http-RFC Sync/async bridge

Question

hi all!
i've got the following scenario: HTTP-BPM(XI)-RFC synchronous both of them. for that, i'm using S/A bridge in the BPM, but i'm getting the error 'Timeout condition of pipeline reached'. i think the problem is that the process gets lost in the sync/async communication, because in the trace level shows CL_XMS_PLSRV_CALL_BPE-ENTER_PLSRV" and after that every message are 'wait time starting'.
don't know the reason of the error. Maybe I missed something to configure?
the BPM is like this:
Receiver(Open Sync/Async bridge) -> Transformation (mapping from http request to RFC request) -> SyncSend (RFC request and response) -> Transformation (mapping from rfc response to http response) -> Send (Close S/A Bridge)
the IR is configured like this:
Message Types u2013 External Definitions u2013 Imported Objects
mt_cxml_request -> contains xsd of xcml request template.
mt_cxml_response -> contains xsd of xcml response template.
zintegracion_pedidos -> imported RFC from R/3
zintegracion_pedidos.response -> imported RFC from R/3
Message Interfaces
mi_cxml_request_async_abs
mi_cxml_request_sync_abs
mi_cxml_request_sync_out
mi_xcml_response_async
mi_rfc_request_asyn_abs
mi_rfc_request_sync_abs
mi_rfc_request_sync_in
mi_rfc_response_async_abs
Message Mappings
mm_cxml_request_to_rfc_request -> mapping from http request (cxml) to rfc request.
mm_rfc_response_to_cxml_response -> mapping from rfc response to http response (cxml).
Interface Mappings
im_cxml_request_async_abs_to_rfc_request_async_abs
im_rfc_response_async_abs_to_cxml_response_async_abs
and the ID is configured like this:
Business system DES -> created business system for RFC adapter with interface mi_rfc_request_sync_in as receiver. Comunication channel u2018RFC Receiveru2019
Businnes service VW -> created businnes service for HTTP adapter with interface mi_cxml_request_sync_out as sender. Comunication channel u2018HTTP Senderu2019
Receiver Determination
two receiver determinations. One for BPM and the other one for RFC(R/3):
|VW| mi_cxml_request_sync_out:
|BPM_PO| mi_rfc_request_sync_abs:
Interface Determination
two interface determinations:
|VW| mi_cxml_request_sync_out | | BPM_PO:
|BPM_PO| mi_rfc_request_sync_abs | * | * :
Sender Agreement
VW
mi_cxml_request_sync_out
Receiver Agreement
|BPM_PO| |DES| mi_rfc_request_sync_in

hi all,
i've removed the transformations from the BPM, and i've created:
in IR:
- interface mapping: im_xcml_request_to_rfc_request_sync_abs
                                source interface: mi_cxml_request-sync_abs
                                target interface: mi_rfc_request_sync_abs
in ID:
- receiver determination: |VW| mi_cxml_request_sync_abs
                                  sender service: VW
                                  interface: mi_cxml_request_sync_abs
                                  receiver: DES
                                  interface mapping:im_xcml_request_to_rfc_request_sync_abs
- interface determination: |VW| mi_cxml_erquest_sync_abs ||
                                     sender service: VW
                                     interface: mi_cxml_request_sync_abs
                                     inbound interface: mi_rfc_request_sync_abs
                                     interface mapping: im_xcml_request_to_rfc_request_sync_abs
- receiver agreement: |VW| |DES| mi_rfc_request_sync_abs
                               sender service: VW
                               receiver service: DES
                               receiver interface: mi_rfc_request_sync_abs
not sure these are the steps i had to do for mapping xml to rfc. but the result is the same error as before, the timeout.
i couldn't test with RTW because i'm getting an error 401 unauthorized.
i'd do it without BPM but the issue is that i wanted to add another step that would be to send the response from rfc to mail too once i got this BPM running. i mean, the response from RFC would be sent to http response and mail both.
the only way i can imagine to do it is with BPM but i'm really fed up with it.
thank u very much folks
