Configure SAP ERP for RFC Communication

If you intend to support SAP RFC integrations, then you must configure an RFC Destination for the Loftware Enterprise™ SP interface in Transaction SM59. For SAP RFC integrations, Loftware Enterprise SP uses an SAP RFC Listener to receive print requests initiated by an SAP Application Server. More than one integration may point to the same SAP Application Server.

Note: These steps are required only if you intend to support SAP RFC integrations.

These procedures should be performed within the SAP Application Server by a system administrator.

Before You Begin: You must perform configuration and installation tasks to prepare for Integration for use with SAP® Applications. For more information, see Preparing for Integration for Use with SAP® Applications.

Configure an RFC Destination

In Transaction SM59 in SAP ERP, you must create an RFC Destination for the Loftware Enterprise SP interface.

1. For RFC destination, enter a name.
2. For Connection Type, select T (TCP/IP connection).
3. For Activation Type click Registration.
4. For Program ID, enter a name.

   Important! When creating an SAP RFC integration in Loftware Enterprise SP, you must enter this name in the RFC Program ID field. More than one integration may point to the same RFC Program ID.

   

   An RFC Destination in SM59

   Note: This RFC is a Destination RFC, so no SAP function is required to be created for the RFC. The RFC functions being called reside in Loftware Enterprise SP. The only SAP coding required is the ABAP call to trigger the print request.

   

   SM59 Unicode Options

   Note: For Unicode SAP Instances, on the Special Options tab, set the Char width Target System to Unicode.

   Tip: For more information about RFC Destinations, see Connection Establishment Using Destination (SM59) on the SAP Help Portal, help.sap.com.
