Use

In this IMG activity, you enter the RFC destination of the HR system from which you want to transfer data to Provisions for Awards in the Accounting system. The Remote Function Call (RFC) is controlled via the parameters of the RFC destination.

During data transfer, you dial the Accounting system into the HR system via this RFC destination. You do this using the RFC user that is defined in the RFC destination.

For the purpose of defining the RFC destination, the following data has to be entered:

  • The application server of the HR system
  • The ERP system number of the HR system

Data for dialing into the HR system (client, RFC user and password)

Note

The HR system itself transfers the data for the base price of the awards from the Treasury application component This data transfer is also controlled via an RFC destination. The following RFC calls are therefore made when HR data is transferred:

  1. The Accounting system makes an RFC call to the HR system.
  2. The HR system makes an RFC call to the system in which the Treasury data is defined.

If you receive an error message when transferring data from the HR system to the Accounting system, this error might be related to the transfer of data from Treasury to the HR system.

You can check the settings for data transfer from Treasury to the HR system in Customizing. To do so, call up Customizing and choose Cross-Application Components -> Predefined ALE Business Processes -> Personnel -> HR <-> AC -> Read Market Value of Awards from Treasury.

Requirements

To dial into the HR system, the RFC user in the HR system must be authorized to select the required data: An authorization is required for authorization object P_ORGIN (HR: Master Data).

If this authorization is missing, contact your system administrator

Standard settings

No RFC destinations are defined in the standard system.

Activities

To define an RFC destination, proceed as follows:

  1. Click on ERP Connections and choose Create.
  2. Enter the general data for the RFC destination:
    • In the RFC Destination field, enter the name of the HR system, for example C11.
    • For connection type, enter 3.
    • Enter a descriptive text for the RFC destination:
    • On the Technical Settings tab, enter the Gateway host and the Gateway service of the HR system.

      Note
      If you are using a message server in your ERP setup, this is normally also the Gateway host. Use the name of the Gateway host instead of the IP address (for example gateway.mydomain.com instead of 123.123.123.123).
      The Gateway service is normally made up of the fixed sequence sapgw plus the two-digit system number of the ERP system.

  3. In the Log-on/Security tab, enter the log-on language, the client, the user and the password.
  4. You now have the option of testing the RFC destination. To do so, choose Test Connection.
  5. Save the RFC destination.
