R/3 RFC Call Log

Hi All,
Do you know if there is a monitor that logs incoming RFC calls to a system?
We have an XI scenario where an asynchronous RFC call takes place from XI to R/3. But it's not working. So we're trying to see of XI is actually calling the RFC.
Let me know!
Thanks,
Roman D.

Hi !
If there is a comunication problem you may find some protocols in the sending system.
SAP can only trace the activity if the remote login was succesfull.
If there is any problem with the remote login the SM20 may be helpful. All unscuccesfull login activity is loged there....
Regards
Rainer
Some points would be nice if that helped a bit

  • RFC call from ECC to SCM -- Debug Steps required

    Hello,
    The steps being done for this issue is:-
    1) In ECC system ,CN22 Transaction Code (Change Networks) --> Click on Schedule (at the Header) and click on SAVE
    2) This seems to trigger an RFC call to SCM server (as per the trace log).
    3) From SCM, it comes back to ECC server as User 'BATCHRFC'. This has been defined in SM59 correctly.
    4) BATCHRFC in ECC system calls an RFC FM 'CIF_PJ_INBOUND' and changed the status of networks to DSEX (date set by External system)
    We are trying to understand why is the RFC call being made? I can debug the FM in ECC when an external breakpoint is used.
    However, I want to know where in ECC is the RFC call made (to SCM), and how? How can I control it as we do not want this to happen? How can I debug to understand how an RFC call is made?
    Your views would be appreciated.
    Regards,
    Sanjiv

    Hi,
        What you do is, enter the Tcode, CN22, then in Command window activate debugger by entering /H
    It takes u to debugger, from menu > utilities set a break point at Satetment Call Function, it will stop at all the Function modules in debugger, so you can look for the RFC FM in the program where it is called.
    And also look for setting in debugger, may be u have some options for RFC FM.

  • RFC Call through BSP - Issue with RFC logon credentials

    Hi everyone,
    I have an BSP application running on a 6.40 which calls a RFC function module on a backend system (4.6c) using a trusted RFC connection.
    The BSP is started with an URL which contains in encoded form the username and password. So we don't use the standard sap-username & sap-password.
    In the first step the user is logged in with the anonym user (user type 'service') which is entered in the SICF. So sy-uname = 'anonym'.
    After a couple of checks and verifications the BSP makes a user switch using 'SUSR_INTERNET_USERSWITCH'. Exporting parameters are the now decoded values from the URL. So after the switch sy-uname is e.g.  'blabla'.
    Now a function module on the backend system is called. What I would now expect is that on the backend system sy-uname is also 'blabla'. But it isn't. The sy-uname is still 'anonym', which isn't very helpful regarding object authority checks.
    Only after an reload of the BSP page and a second RFC call of the function module the sy-uname = 'blabla'.
    I wonder what causes this problem?
    Thanks for your replies & regards
    Kruno

    Hi,
    I solved it.
    Before I execute function 'SUSR_INTERNET_USERSWITCH' I first check if user has a valid backend account by using function module 'BAPI_USER_EXISTENCE_CHECK'.
    And this is the problem. When 'BAPI_USER_EXISTENCE_CHECK' is executed once all other RFC function calls to the backend get the wrong user.
    Why? I don't know yet. Maybe I will get an useful anwer from an OSS note.

  • URGENT - RFC Call from EP6.0

    Hi folks,
    We are creating a custom iView for creating and editing employee competency appraisals.  While creating a new appraisal, we call an RFC to validate whether an appraisal should be allowed to be created for that particular employee, based on the employee's Job Competency Profile.
    When we log onto R/3 and test the function we get RETURNCODE (of type SY-SUBRC) = 1.  This is the expected result, meaning that the appraisal can not be created because the competency is not in the employee's profile.
    However, when we log onto the portal with the same user, and submit the exact same parameters to the RFC call, we get a RETURNCODE=0, and the appraisal is created.
    Has any of you experts out there ever run into a similar problem?  Any assistance you can provide would be most appreciated.
    Thank you,
    Dan

    Hi Dan,
    Sorry for the late reply!
    do u got solution for that?
    Otherwise, try with this!
    Just intialize the variable in java with 0 or 1,
    otherwise define 2 constants one is for having the value 0 and one is for having 1 and then check with the ouput value u r getting from r/3 to java.
    Generally, whatever the value u will get to the export parameter will be passed to the variable on java side.
    Just check it and let me know the status.
    Regards,
    Sireesha.

  • User Name and Password for JCO RFC call to BAPI

    Hi all,
    What I think I know:
    --We do NOT have Single Sign On configured so don't tell me to use SSO please - I agree, but...
    --We have a requirement to do a goods receipt which prints labels for the handling units 
    .....The printer to which the labels are directed depends on the user who is running the transaction
    What I think this means
    --We will need to specify a user name and password in the RFC call so the label will go to the correct printer
    --I cannot use the IllumnLoginPassword (or whatever its name is) for the password
    --I need to prompt the user for their password a second time after they login to our MII app
    The problem
    --I will need to store the password somewhere for the duration of the session
    ......In session variable that has been encryted
    .............I didn't see an encryption action block so I could create my own
    ......In the database using database column encryption
    .............A little bit of a pain, but not too bad
    Any corrections, alternatives, ideas .... ???
    Thanks,
    --Amy Smith
    --Haworth

    Thanks for the attention guys.  A little clarification.
    1.  I have been assuming that I cannot use the IllumnLoginPassword for the JCO SAP password in the action block.  If this is NOT true, then it solves my whole problem.
    2.  It would not work to prompt a shop floor person for their password every time they do an operation completion.  Well, at least
    if I don't want to not get lynched! 
    3.  I am planning on prompting people every time they log on for their ECC password and retaining it somewhere secure while they are logged on (and longer if they skip the logoff step.)
    4.  I have been focusing on how/where to retain the password, but also need a way to encrypt it during transmission.  Jeremy said the applet/BLS would at least encode it for me.  That is good.

  • Finding caller program in a RFC call

    Hi experts,
    We are having lots of CALL_FUNCTION_NOT_FOUND short dumps in one of our systems. The errors are caused because other systems call a function that does not exist, so the dumps are created.
    What we would like to know is what program is doing these calls, since all we can see in the short dump is the caller system and the function it is trying to access, but not the exact program where the call is performed so we can fix the code.
    Thanks in advance for your support.

    Sorry if this is too much of a wall of text, I can't find an "attach file" type feature.
    ABAP runtime errors    CALL_FUNCTION_NOT_FOUND
           Occurred on     11.12.2006 at 10:04:34
    Function module "Y_EF_DETERMINE_PICTURE" not found.
    What happened?
    The function module "Y_EF_DETERMINE_PICTURE" was called, but cannot be
    found in the Function Library.
    The current ABAP/4 program "SAPMSSY1 " had to be terminated because
    one of the statements could not be executed.
    This is probably due to an error in the ABAP/4 program.
    What can you do?
    Note the actions and input that caused the error.
    Inform your SAP system administrator.
    You can print out this message by choosing "Print". Transaction ST22
    allows you to display and manage termination messages, including keeping
    them beyond their normal deletion date.
    Error analysis
    The program "SAPMSSY1 " contains a CALL FUNCTION statement. The name
    of the function module to be called is "Y_EF_DETERMINE_PICTURE".
    No function module exists with the name "Y_EF_DETERMINE_PICTURE".
    All function modules are stored in the Function Builder (SE37).
    Possible reasons:
    a) Wrong name specified. Particular attention should be paid
       to upper/lower case and underscores ("_").
    or
    b) Transport error
    c) In the case of an enqueue/dequeue module, the lock object
       may not have been activated (ABAP Dictionary).
    How to correct the error
    Check the last transports to the R/3 System.
    Is the program "SAPMSSY1 " currently being changed?
    If an enqueue/dequeue module is involved, is the activation
    of the lock object missing in the ABAP/4 Dictionary?
    If the error occurred in a non-modified SAP program, you may be
    able to find a solution in the SAP note system.
    If you have access to the note system yourself, use the following
    search criteria:
    "CALL_FUNCTION_NOT_FOUND"
    "SAPMSSY1 " or "SAPMSSY1 "
    "REMOTE_FUNCTION_CALL"
    Function modules with names similar to "Y_EF_DETERMINE_PICTURE":
    Y_EF_USEX_DETERMINE_TAX
    Y_GF1_DETERMINE_RECTYPE
    Y_GK_DETERMINE_PRCTR
    Y_EF_USEX_PICTURE_SUBMIT
    Y_EF_USEX_SHOW_PICTURE
    Y_EF_RFC_PICTURE_POST
    Y_GF1_DETERMINE_SBU
    Y_GF_DETERMINE_VERSION
    Y_GF_DETERMINE_DATE_PREVMON
    Y_GF1_DETERMINE_CURRENT_PERIOD
    If you cannot solve the problem yourself, please send the
    following documents to SAP:
    1. A hard copy print describing the problem.
       To obtain this, select the "Print" function on the current screen.
    2. A suitable hardcopy prinout of the system log.
       To obtain this, call the system log with Transaction SM21
       and select the "Print" function to print out the relevant
       part.
    3. If the programs are your own programs or modified SAP programs,
       supply the source code.
       To do this, you can either use the "PRINT" command in the editor or
       print the programs using the report RSINCL00.
    4. Details regarding the conditions under which the error occurred
       or which actions and input led to the error.

  • Reset or Clear SAP user context by external RFC caller program

    Hello,
    I have a SAP system with performance problems due to a SAP user context starts using a lot of memory.
    This user context comes from an External RFC caller program written in Delphi and which uses the SAP RFC SDK provided by SAPGUI 6.40: SAP Automation library, SAPFuntionsOCX, I mean, using methods in the object "SAPFunctions" in SAPFunctionsOCX in file "wdtfuncU.ocx", in SAPGUI directory.
    Everytime we have performance problems, this RFC SAP user context is using near 1400 Mb of extended memory, although there is a lot of free physical RAM memory available, there are free dialog processes and CPU load is low (no more than 30%).
    This performance problem is solved by closing the external program (written in Delphi) which connects to SAP via RFC.
    This external program works for the warehouse management and connects to SAP several times per minute. Due to connection performance and the high frequency with which this external program must connect to SAP, the connection to SAP is not closed after each call to RFC SAP function modules.
    The extended memory used by this SAP RFC user is growing along time. I detected, using ST03 transaction, that these user sessions have always the same transaction code hash, I mean, although the external programs call the same SAP RFC funcion modules several times (¡¡¡ always clearing the variables at the beginning and at the end of de ABAP code, with ABAP commands like REFRESH and FREE ¡¡¡¡) the technical transaction code is the same and I suppose the user context (in extended memory) is not deleted.
    I think it is better than the external program close the context memory (similar to "/n" okcode in SAPGUI).
    But we don't want to close the connection, because the external program connects to SAP with a high frequency, and the logon process is expensive.
    Is there any way to send something similar to "/n" (end of transaction) from the external program? Is there any command in the SAP RFC SDK library (SAPFuntionsOCX or something similar?
    I cannot find any method to do that in the object "SAPFunctions" in SAPFunctionsOCX in file "wdtfuncU.ocx", in SAPGUI directory.
    Old information for Object Classes "SAPFunctions" in SAPFunctionsOCX in file "wdtfuncU.ocx", in SAPGUI directory, is described in the following URL:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_45b/helpdata/en/39/7e00d1ac6011d189c60000e829fbbd/frameset.htm
    But I cannot find anything related to something similar to a "/n" in SAPGUI.
    As I have the SAPGUI installed on my desktop, I can see all SAP RFC classes and methods from Excel, by opening the Visual Basic editor.
    I am only asking a way to send to SAP a command to free the user context used for an open RFC session in order to avoid the memory used to be continuously growing, without having to close the RFC session.
    The external program only calls a certain SAP function module periodically and we want to free the user context between calls without logging off. This is the same, very similar, as if we called that function from SAPGUI and we used "/n" in SAPGUI between calls.
    Anyone can help me?
    Thanks and best regards.

    Hello,
    I don't know if this will solve your problem, but you may be using MF 'RFC_CONNECTION_CLOSE' between each call of you RFC function.
    Regards
    Brice

  • RFC call history - View Parameter data

    Hi all!
    I would like to view the parameter values of an incomming RFC call made by an external system. Is this possible?
    I have had a look at ST01 and ST05 and ST11...
    (Obviously I have activated the trace with "RFC Trace" checkbox selected and run through a few calls via the external system (which were successful) and then turned off the trace)
    - ST01 and ST05 (same functionality?) do not even list the function calls!?
    - ST11 (error log!) does list the function module but it only says how many bytes were sent and received, and does not appear to have parameter specific details...
    Thanks for any clues!
    N

    Hi N K and others with a similar problem
    I am not aware of the possibiblity to see the parameters. But I had a similar problem as I am calling a function module in SAP through a webservice, but the response was not as expected. To see the input parameter I added a HTTP breakpoint in the function module I was trying to call.
    Remember in the function builder to activate the external debugger for the user making the call ("Utilities" -> "User-specific Settings" -> "ABAP Editor" -> "Debugging")
    When the debugger stopped at my brekpoint i was able to see the parameters.
    Hope this helps anyone out there
    Best regards

  • Diiferent user for RFC call

    Hi All,
    Can we have use different user IDs to make RFC calls to SAP? Do we have option to call RFC using different users like DEV1, DEV2 etc which is specific to the user logging in to MII. This is required to maintain the change history record while posting data back to SAP
    As per the current set up its always  user which is configured in SAP server editor in MII, makes the change in SAP.
    Any input is appreciable
    Thanks in advance
    Namita

    Ajay,
      It is like passing any other parameter to your BLS.
    For example :
    1.In your BLT, create 2 trx params
    UserName,Password.
    In your Jco Action Block assign these params in the Links Tab of the action.
    2. Create a xAcute Query Template wrapping this BLS transaction.Set Param1 as UserName and Param2 as Password.
    3. Now in your frontpage screen, create an iCommand applet wrapping the above xAcute Query Template.
    4. In your screen have 2 input fields to enter username and password.
    In the "OnClick()" event, use the setParam() method to set the values from the Input fields.
    Hope this helps. I do not have the resources to give you the code but i think this should work. Let me know if this helps,
    Thanks,
    Ram

  • Locking objects across RFC calls

    Hi All,
    I am developing a business application using SAP UI5 and the NetWeaver Service Gateway in an embedded scenario. I have RFCs build for the backend interaction. As per my knowledge, each RFC is considered as a separate transaction and the user is logged on and off as the RFC is processed. This removes the lock on the object that I need to be sustained till the next RFC call. Unlocking the object exposes it to possible editing by other users which is not desirable.
    From what I have studied from this community, there are, by and large, two solutions
    1. Custom Lock Table
    2. Checking if the status of the object  is the same during the second RFC call, and going ahead only if it was unchanged.
    However, I am looking for more credible solution to this problem and would like to know how someone who experienced this issue have handled it.
    Thanks in advance,
    Neelesh

    Hi Jacob
    S_RFC and S_SERVICE This two authorization is nedded while calling RFC module from R3.
    first of all test the module in R3. create a role using PFCG assign the tcode. su53 (authorization check) and also assign the S_RFC and S_SERVICE to role.
    now test the RFC function module with this role in R3.
    if u give any warning/error due to authorization. imediate run tcode su53 in same session or new session
    i.e /nsu53 or /osu53.
    look which authorization is missing for a object.
    assign the relevant object and authorization to role.
    any query revert back.

  • Credit Card Encryption through RFC calls to third party software

    Dear All,
       I am working on credit card encryption in CRM. At our firm, we have SAP R/3 which is integrated with third party server for performing credit card encryption using RFC calls. We want to perform similar thing in SAP CRM. I was looking into SAP standard mechanism to perform encryption and it seems they use class CL_PCA_SECURITY -> External Encryption to encrypt credit card. Are there any BADIs available for me to change behaviour of this call and call our listeners (for third party server) instead of what standard SAP is calling. Here is what in the code:
    call C function 'SSFENVELOPE'
      CALL 'SSF_ABAP_SERVICE'                                 "#EC CI_CCALL
           ID 'OPCODE'             FIELD   SSF_OPCODES-ENVELOPE
           ID 'SECTOOLKIT'         FIELD   SSFTOOLKIT
           ID 'STRFORMAT'          FIELD   STR_FORMAT
           ID 'STRFORMATL'         FIELD   STR_FORMAT_L
           ID 'BINENC'             FIELD   B_INENC
           ID 'IOSPEC'             FIELD   IO_SPEC
           ID 'OSTRINPUTDATAL'     FIELD   OSTR_INPUT_DATA_L

           ID 'CRC'                FIELD   CRC
           ID 'OSTRINPUTDATA'      FIELD   OSTR_INPUT_DATA-SYS
           ID 'RECIPIENTLIST'      FIELD   RCPTAB-SYS
           ID 'OSTRENVELOPEDDATA'  FIELD   OSTR_ENVELOPED_DATA-SYS
           ID 'STRSYMENCRALG'      FIELD   STR_SYM_ENCR_ALG
           ID 'STRSYMENCRALGL'     FIELD   STR_SYM_ENCR_ALG_L.

    Vivek,
    While it may be technically possible to accomplish what you are suggesting (leveraging the encryption functionality provided by your third-party server) I would recommend strongly that you consider a token-based solution instead.  You can learn more about tokenization on this [blog|/people/eric.bushman4/blog/2009/01/02/tokenization-as-a-means-of-securing-credit-card-numbers ].
    There are many reasons why a token-based solution is superior to using application specific encryption (as outlined in the blog), but specifically in the case you describe where an SAP CRM and SAP R/3 are involved there is one specific reason to consider:
    When order data is replicated between SAP CRM and SAP R/3 the systems will attempt to decrypt the credit card numbers prior to passing the data and therefore the RAW card number will be stored in the middleware logs.  This is especially true when using SAP's native credit card encryption logic in the CRM and R/3-ECC applications. 
    For example, let's say a user enters a credit card as the form of payment during Order Creation in CRM.  At Order Save the system will send the credit card information to your third-party server for an authorization attempt and the results will be returned to CRM.  As the Order is saved and committed to the CRM database the standard SAP encryption functionality can be leveraged to encrypt the card data.  Based on your middleware configuration, eventually the Order data (including the credit card details) will be sent to the R/3 or ECC system.  In order to do so the CRM system will first decrypt the card number meaning that the CRM middleware logs will contain RAW card numbers.  When the Order is created in R/3 or ECC the native credit card encryption functionality in R/3 or ECC could be used to encrypt the card number prior to the Order being stored in the database.
    Should you choose to use a third-party server you may find, depending on how the third-party vendor's logic works in SAP, that you must utilize a BADI to decrypt the card number in CRM so that the CRM middleware has a RAW card and so that when the Orders is saved in the R/3 or ECC system it can be encrypted again with the third-party vendor solution.  In either case the RAW card number is present in all systems for some period of time and potentially stored in logs thus exposing your systems to risk and greater PCI audit scrutiny.

  • Complete information only for activated RFC calls ( settings) error SM66

    Hi,
       I have a BW, CRM 5.0 & ECC 6.0 instances.. And I have created new users in all the systems with SAP_ALL permissions. After successfull password change, I entered the SM66 T-Code  to view the WP list but I am getting error "Complete information only for activated RFC calls (> settings)" like this. I couln't find any log in SM21for this error. But I  am able to view all the work process in SM50 and I am able to view all the Application Servers list in  SM51 T-Codes.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    This is not an error but an information message :
    Diagnosis
    Complete information on report, transaction, memory usage amongst other things, is only available when the option 'Only display short information, avoid RFC' under 'Settings' is deactivated.

  • SAP BW User getting locked by BO RFC calls

    Hi,
    we are encountering a problem with BO RFC calls locking SAP BW users that recently changed their password in BW.
    Description of the problem in the ticket we raised at the SAP support:
    SAP BO 4.1 SP2 Patch 4, linux installation
    Backend: SAP BW 7.01 EHP8
    BICS interface with SAP authentication
    One of our users gets locked again and again in SAP BW (P19). The cause is a RFC connection that the BusinessObjects server (P59) tries to establish. The user used SAP BO last Friday for the last time and had to change his password in P19 this Tuesday. We think that there is some
    process within SAP BO still trying to connect to SAP BW from time to time, using the old password. There is no open session visible for that user in the CMC. User is even getting locked when not in the office and during night time. RFC calls are established almost regualary every hour.
    We already had this behaviour in our test-system. Restarting the BO-Server solved it. However, this is not the solution we want to use
    in the productive environment. There has to be some way to kill the process that uses the old password on the BO server without restarting
    the whole server. We do not understand why BO would still try to connect to BW with the old password - this has to be some kind of a bug.
    Meanwhile the error disappeared for the first user (some days after it started, maybe the BO process ran into a timeout). However, other users started having the same behaviour after changing their password.
    Our basis team tried to check the log files for advanced information on the conversations between BO and BW, but did not find any hints on which BO process might try to establish the connections.
    The SAP support seems to be a little helpless at the moment...
    Has anyone had similar problems?
    Regards,
    Robert

    Hi again,
    additional information: after approximately one week after the error appeared for the first time BO stops trying to establish the rfc connection for this specific user. Almost as if the "old-password-BO-process" ran into a 1 week timeout or something like that.
    The problem is really strange. The SAP support is still not able to tell us how the gather the information they require.
    Regards,
    Robert

  • Update from RFC call cor8

    One of the RFC calls has not updated vbk table.  This came up as an issue, which is found in sm13.
    what exactly needed to be checked and what correctivie action required to solve the issue.
    Transaction from where RFC was made:  COR8
    Needed advise please.

    You meant that user use COR8 inside SAP but somehow there is an error during save? It can be the purely technical problem (database problem). What is the error message in SM13? Can you perform repeat update successfully?
    I think you are asking about further simulation of the particular RF call using an simulation icon to see whether the further call works well or not?  Is this your question.
    It is quite difficult to analyze the problem. Maybe if you can post the screen shot (SM13 error log) somewhere and let us see. It may help.
    I can send you the screen of tthe issue but for this i would request you to provide your email id., if possible.  So that i will be able to send the details screen.

Maybe you are looking for
