The webdynpro/ABAP (WDA) calling RFC enabled FM of other ECC systems

The webdynpro/ABAP (WDA) has problem calling RFC enabled FM of other ECC systems.
WDA expects all the ABAPs, RFC FMs of remote system(DEV, QA..) to reside inside its own instance.
It is hard to transport and maintain these ABAPs FMs into a portal ABAP WDA instance.
Proxy generation at WDA client:
=======================
1. If we can make an XI enable an ABAP or RFC enabled FM of the remote ECC,
I think the XI proxy classes can be generated at the client WDA system.
Other options?
How do I do it? Can you give some tips.
2. How do I manually code the RFC Call to BAPI/FM from Webdynpro controller or other interface?
I am stuck with the above as the webservice option is not available at our ECC server. It does not have a java engine installed for webservice to be available.
Can you help on the above 2 options?

Hi Mike ,
 Answer of 2.
How do I manually code the RFC Call to BAPI/FM from Webdynpro controller or other interface?
I am doing same thing for my current SRM implementation.I am taking data to SRM server from another R/3 server .
This is solution I have used
1) First of all I have made ABAP connection in SM59 .
Go to SM59 .In ABAP Connection creat ABAP connection with system with which u want communicate .
Eg I am connection with Systems PB1.
So i developed Connection call PB1CLNT800.
2) In my requirement I have taken data in my context from another r/3,
I have give called RFC in my supply function of node.
Call to RFC is as usual.
In my case,
CALL FUNCTION 'RFC_MATNR'
DESTINATION 'PB1CLNT800'
TABLES
IT_MATNR = IT_MATNR.
Onwards I have read my itab IT_MATNR and populated data to context.
Hope solution will serve your purpose.
Give point if it works .If any problem i have other ways.
Cheers

Calling RFC function module in other SAP system...

Hi,
I have a report on one SAP system and a function module on other system. The function module is RFC enabled. How can I call this RFC enabled function module from other SAP system in the report which is different SAP ?
system.
Thanks.
Regards,
Rajesh.

call the function module in orginal system in se38 ,copy the function module ,paste the function module in other system,and maintain destination here ,otherwise you will get short dump.
here detination should be SM59 destination,this is case sensitive.

HTML Tags in the Webdynpro ABAP

Hi Experts,
How to create a html page in the webdynpro ABAP, we have existing page in the HTML format. I have tried the Formatted Text View it is not supporting all existing HTML tags like <table>
.Can u suggest me how to integrate the HTML in the Application ...

As you stated, the SAP recommendation is to not use iFrames. That UI element is depricated. The recommended solution is to use the NetWeaver Portal or NetWeaver Business Client. You create two iViews and place them both in the same page if you need to mix Web Dynpro with more free form HTML coding. The one iView can be Web Dynpro and the other can be one of many types of technologies (static HTML, BSP, JSP, JSF, ASP.NET, etc). You can use portal eventing to communicate between these two separete iViews if needed.

How to deploy the webdynpro ABAP application in Portal

Hi,
Can someone provide me, all the steps involved to deploy the webdynpro ABAP application in Portal.
Thanks,
Kundan

Hi Kundan,
First create a WD abap component and then you have to integrate in the portal.
Refer this article [Integrate a Web Dynpro Application into the SAP Enterprise Portal|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/7bfea990-0201-0010-44a7-84a74971b795&overridelayout=true].

Webdynpro ABAP webservice call to external server - Cookie issue

Hi,
We are experiencing cookie issue while calling webservice to Tivoli system hosted on IBM websphere.
Steps we have done as follows:
1. Created a ABAP Proxy class from Tivoli WSDL.
2. Configured T-Code LPCONFIG to point to above proxy class and logical port.
3. Configured SM59 RFC connection to point to Tivoli server using basic authentication mechanism (User ID/Password).
4. Called webservice method from WebDynpro ABAP program.
After above steps, we are able to call the webservice method successfully but second time we are experiencing Cookie being adding to the request and eventually no response back to our program.
When we investigated this cookie issue with IBM Websphere people, they says thay have enabled SSO Config instead of basic authentication and that's why a cookie is being added to the request and fails. when they disabled SSO, we are able to call webservic method sucessfully sevaral times. but now this cannot be no longer disabled as other applications are using SSO enable option. So, we are thinking, is there something that can be done in SAP ECC itself as we see the option of using SSO in SM59 instead of User Id/Password but not sure How?
If anybody has undergone this scenario/SSO config from ECC SM59 successfully, Please reply back.
Thanks in advance
Praveen

Here is the link that explains how SSO can be configured in SAP.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/65/6a563cef658a06e10000000a11405a/frameset.htm
Once done, under Client PSE in Tcode STRUST, you can upload the certificate obtained from the SSO enabled system and use the client PSE (Default) in the SSL Client Certificate area of SM59
I see Thomas has already responded to you and he has written a blog on how to set this up as well.

Problem with String parameters while Calling RFC enabled Function Module

Hi all,
I execute BAPI(RFC enabled Function Module) from my WebDynpro Application and retrieve data from R/3.
To fetch the data I pass few String parameters to BAPI from my Dynpro Application.
Now the problem is that while making this call, the parameters are automatically converted to UpperCase. And I want those parameters in the original case at R/3.
I am not able to find out whether this conversion occurs at Dynpro side or R/3 Side.
Should i configure my BAPI(RFC enabled Function Module) or is there some option on the Dynpro Side to preserve the Case of the String?
Please help me.
Thanks,
Darshil

Hi Darshil,
I'm not sure whether you have experience with ABAP or you are a Java Programmer, but we cannot set that flag permanently.
Now, if you are saying that the domains are marked with the Lowercase attribute, then it means that the final table field will be capable of holding Case Sensitive data.
I have a hunch that the case-conversion is happenning at the Web-Dynpro side. Or, the application logic converts the string to UPPERCASE explicitly.
By the way, which BAPI are you talking about ?

Anand Mandalika.

Call RFC enabled function from within VBA in BI 7.0

Hello Experts,
the problem that we have should be general, i have found some postings on this forum concerning it, but unfortunately no proper solutiont.
I just want to have the possibility to call the rfc enabled function module from within the callback function in VBA after executing of some query.
I have seen the suggestion to build a new RFC connection in VBA, but therefore you should hard-code all connection parameters (including user + password)
in the VBA code, this solution is for us not acceptable due to the security reasons.
Is there some way to use the existing connection of BEx Analyser in order to execute the function calls?
This functionality was possible in 3.5 but not in 7.0 since many functions that were available in 3.5 are not supported now.
Do you have experience/suggestions for this problem?
Any help would be great.
Thanks a lot,
Kirill

I've got the same problem. Did you find the solution?
Thank you,

Calling RFC enabled FM IN BACKGROUND TASK

Hi Frnds,
I have a requirement where in I need to call a FM which executes 'VA02' BDC in some user exit.
Since this has to be executed after the commit work is executed in the calling program i am using the background mode.
something like below,
CALL FUNCTION 'Z_SD_AVAILABILITY_CHECK_BDC'
    IN BACKGROUND TASK
    DESTINATION 'NONE'
    TABLES
      t_vbap = xvbap.
This above FM is RFC enabled.
And this FM is also called successfully and VA02 is executed without any error. But the FM's session does not get killed after its executed completly. Instead it creates another session of the same FM and executes the BDC again. This is goion on and on and multiple sessions are created at the end.
Am I missing something here? Do I have to include the Performing RETURN_INFO ON END OF TASK also?
Please give ur suggestions.
regards,
Karthick C

Hi,
Check the SM58 to see how many calls are there. It might be that the function is called multiple times every time the user exit is triggered. So put a break point in the user exit and check that the function is actually only called once per transaction.
As the SAP help says that the calls are stored in the tables ARFCSSTATE and ARFCSDATA, it might be worth checking the entries of this table for the function calls before the transaction commit work is executed. See [here|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/8e/d05f3ce4dd3370e10000000a114084/frameset.htm]

Remote Function Call (RFC) within a BAdI in ECC to CRM

I've a remote enabled FM in a CRM system which I want to call within a BAdI implementation of a ECC system. As a result, the CRM system is the RFC server and the ECC system is the RFC client.
The FM in CRM simply gets the relevant rows of a Z table which, of course, only exists in CRM and passes these rows to the calling program as per parameter supplied by the calling program.
Now the BAdI in ECC is for changing 'Contracts' data in SAP (transactional data) before posting the contracts in the ECC database. The business uses a transaction where a large number of contracts are processed and documents posted in the system - and when this happens the system runs through (calls) the BAdI one contract at a time.
If I call the RFC enabled FM anywhere within this BAdI, it gets the data for one contract only so it reduces a great deal of performance in regards to memory consumption, network load etc. So I want to avoid this and call the RFC FM once instead, if possible.
Is it possible to call this RFC FM once only (to load the CRM Z table data for all contracts) and store it in a global table/area within the instantiated BAdI class (visibility public) so that when the BAdI is called the second time onwards it can read the global table/area by READ TABLE WITH KEY statement and avoid the RFC call for each BAdI call?
I was also thinking about may be using ABAP Shared Memory if this is a possibility in order to avoid the repeated RFC call? But this table on the RFC server changes frequently....so it might not be a good idea? or....??
I would greatly appreciate your inputs and thoughts regarding this; it would be great to hear if someone had had a similar experience.
Cheers,
Sougata.

As the Z table is only updated via a particular program in CRM - we developed and called a RFC enabled FM in that report when its updating the Z table to update the Z table in ECC to keep it in sync.
Short term benefit but might be long term pain if the Z table in CRM is updated by another program/process/application in the future! Not to mention any table field changes in CRM has to be also made in ECC everytime which is again a pain.
This is a workaround and definitely not a full-proof solution - but I guess these days one has to shut up and deliver whatever the customer wants!

Call rfc sender adapter from non-sap systems

Hi,
is ist possible to connect to an rfc sender adapter from non-sap systems? I want to use the the RFC-Connector from http://rfcconnector.com, but in the client connect options there is no way to specify the program id.
Best regards,
Daniel

hi,
you don't need to use RFC type T (with program ID) - you can use whole connection string - just like in the example:
http://www.rfcconnector.com/documentation/examples/client/#functioncall
so just specify: host system number etc.
it should work like that - but let me know as I don't know this RFC connector

How BAPI/RFC canbe seen in other SAP systems

Hi
Howcan BAPI/RFC of R/3 system be seen in different SAP systems such as BW/CRM .
regards
Supern

Hi,
You can use them from other systems if they are set to be REMOTE-ENALED. This can be done from the tab Attributes in the function module maintenance. You will create the function module exactly the same as if it would be used in one system. If you want to use it from another system like BW, you need to add DESTINATION parameter when calling the function module. DESTINATION defines the RFC of the source system, this tells BW where the fm you are calling is setting.
Ex, if you have defined fm Z_BW_READ_R3_TABLE in R/3 system, you can call from BW using below code:
CALL FUNCTION 'Z_BW_READ_R3_TABLE'
 DESTINATION r3_rfc_dest
* EXPORTING
 TABLES
 INT_ITAB = INT_ITAB1.

Debugging the webdynpro abap application from portal.

I developed a WebDynpro application and integrated in portal. I have to catch some portal events.For that i have written some code in my application. I tried to debug the application from portal by using all the available break-point types.but we could not .
Anybody have an idea how to debug a WebDynpro application from portal.
Thanks,
Kumar.

Hi
Few links to check:
External debugging is not working
Re: Debugging Abap webdynpro appln
Re: Unable to Debug WD ABAP application
Dedug is not working in Production Server.
a) Check on number of R/3 sessions opened at a time.
b) Check that user ID configured in portal using System Mapping Under 'Delegate User Administration' is the same user for which you are setting external breakpoint in backend system.

Calling RFC-enabled function as web service using XI 3.0

Hi,
I have a problem when trying to use web services (sending a soap-req. to XI 3.0 based on the generated WSDL from Integration Directory).
According to the message monitoring, all steps in the central pipeline executes just fine until the last step - CALL ADAPTER.
I don't think this is an authorization issue since I have tested the XIISUSER/pwd against the URL for adapter engine.
Seems to me that the problem is related to the msg sent to AE:
"HTTP response contains status code 401 with the description Unauthorized XML tag Envelope missing in SOAP message header (SAP XI Extension)"
How to proceed from here?

Hi Torstein,
Seems to me that the problem is related to the msg sent to AE:
"HTTP response contains status code 401 with the description Unauthorized XML tag Envelope missing in SOAP message header (SAP XI Extension)"

According to you, the problem occurs within the SOAP envelope. Does your incoming SOAP message looks like the one below here?
If that's not the case, then make sure your SOAP/Web Service client is sending a valid SOAP envelope/request (like the sample below) to XI.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>

<SOAP:Envelope xmlns:SOAP='http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/'>
<SOAP:Header/>
