Mapping lookups - RFC API

[former_member181967]

Hi,

When configuring the communication channel, the parameter RFC Server Type could be used for another type than the SAP System, like an external database. Please, can anyone provide me some help ????

Thanks,

You have to create an communication channel to the System with which the lookup is being performed. For example, if the lookup is to be performed with a Database System, then a communication channel for the DB should be created. The Advanced function (in Message Mapping) will use this channel to perform the lookup’s. Go through the below url and threads which may help you with different scenarios and problems:
