Creating an RFC Destination to the BC

Data is exchanged between the SAP system and the Business Connector (BC) using an RFC connection (connection type T, TCP/IP). You can create this connection using transaction SM59 (Display and Maintain RFC Destinations):

Enter the RFC destination HR_DE_ZFA (or the value you maintained in the constant RFCMQ). The RFC destination is used to call the function modules.

Select the connection type T (Start external program using TCP/IP).

Choose the activation type Registered Server Program. If you use XI, enter the program ID ZFA_BC_<System name>_<Client>, or if you use the Business Connector, enter the program ID ZFA_BC_<System name>_<Client>. The program ID is used again later on the XI or BC side. XI requires the program ID for registration of the RFC adapter. On the Business Connector, the program ID is used for the definition of the "listeners" (program ID).

Example program IDs:

XI:    ZFA_XI_<System name>_<Client> => ZFA_XI_PRO_010

BC:     ZFA_BC_<System name>_<Client> => ZFA_BC_PRO_010

You cannot test the connection until the RFC adapter in XI or the listener on the BC is set up and activated.

Note for the Business Connector:

Unicode:

Business Connector: In a Unicode system, select the Unicode indicator under "Special Options". On the BC, the listener must also be identified as a Unicode listener.

If you use multiple servers for your system, you can define one of these servers as a gateway, and you then only need to maintain this one connection in the BC. As the Gateway Host enter the server, and under Gateway Service, enter a system number in the format "sapgw<System number>".

Example:

Gateway Host: LS0096

Gateway Service: sapgw05
