How to call external programs stored on the Server using RFC

Posted on Oct 06, 2005 at 06:09 AM 11 Views

Hi All,

Can anyone point me to the link defining the exact process for setting up and placing calls to external programs not on Local machine using RFC?

I have looked briefly at the ERFC Function Group but still am not sure where to start from.

Regards,

Madhur

    use SM59 to create one link with that remote system,

    under logon/security give required detail.

    give connection type = 3 if R/3 server.

    give desc.

    i am not sure if target host is required or not.

    regards

    then you have to create one 'remote enabled' FM

    Hi Chopra,

    Try this function module. It enables You to call an

    external server.

    A connection must exist as posted!

    (TA: SM59)

    CALL FUNCTION 'SXPG_CALL_SYSTEM'

    EXPORTING

    commandname = 'blabla.exe'

    additional_parameters = 'blabla'

    IMPORTING

    • status =

    exitcode = ls_exit

    TABLES

    exec_protocol = lt_proto

    EXCEPTIONS

    BR
