RFC -> XI -> File

[Former Member]

Hello,

I have a scenario where I must create a flat file from data in the SAP. I created a report that prepares the data and the calls RFC on destination 'XI' with the data.

This works and the file gets created but I am getting errors on the XI log. I guess it's because the RFC is expecting some kind of response.

Is there any way around this WITHOUT BPM? What will happen if I create an ASYNC message inteface for the RFC? will this help?

Thanks,

Yoni

Yoni,

You do not need a BPM. You can use a Sender RFC adapter -- XI -- File.

Just make sure you use a Asynch Interface for the RFC.

Take a look at this blog,

Hi,

By default RFC is Sync and hence expecting a response message and obviously there is no response.

While calling the RFC make it Asyn by calling it in background task.

I tried running the program in background mode by scheduling a job in sm36 and I still get the same error. Is there another way to run RFC in background?

Thanks

OK, it works!

call function '' in background task destination ''
