Hi All,

Can we use RFC FM to access the Mainframes systems? If so . Please let me know the what steps need to be configure in SAP and as well as in Mainframes side? Please let me know the if any links are available related to this topic. What parameters do we need to pass to get the data from the mainframes or Cobol system.

Please urgent help needed in this issue.

I don't think that there would be any easy way to do this with RFCs. The mainframe application would have to impliment the server side of the the RFC SDK to act as an RFC server. This would I think require a fair bit of custom development on the mainframe to do it.

If I were you I would investigate the use of various EAI tools (Integration tools) which may have an adapter that does what you require and could act as a bridge between SAP and the mainframe.
