Remote function module (RFC)

manubhutani — Fri, 27 Feb 2009 12:15:07 GMT

In one of the issue, remote enabled FM 'RFC_CALCULATE_TAXES_DOC' is called from SAP

CALL FM 'RFC_CALCULATE_TAXES_DOC' DESTINATION 'ABCD' (ABCD is other system - sabrix)

Can anybody tell me the logic (there is no code in FM) , whether FM with this name is there in other system which is called from SAP, (How processing occurs in case of remote FM).

And how to see what processsing is being done in other system. ?

And why there is no code in this FM in sap?

Thanks and Regards

Manu

It will connect to the system specified and perform the logic written in RFC. You have to use exceptions to catch if there is any link failure or system down otherwise your program keeps run.

Thanks for the reply.

But in this case, there is no code in the Function modules.

Please help.
