Here is a simple how to guide with screen shots on configuring RFC in BI7 for connecting to ECC6 Server.

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

1.T-code SM59

2.Use SAP standard connection for RFC under ABAP:

3.Go to T90CLNT090 which is standard RFC connection and exists both in BI7 as well as in ECC6 IDES.

4.Double click to edit settings for this RFC connection. You need to specify the IP for the ECC6 server and create a password for the default USER u201CConnectoru201D for both ECC6 server and in BI7 server. Usually, in ECC6 server, the user u201CConnectoru201D is already created by default and is locked. You need to unlock it and give it the same password as given in BI7. Enter the description, Target host, System number. Press Enter to confirm your entries and save.

5.Go to Logon and Security Tab and enter a password for user u201CConnectoru201D. Remember to enter the same password in ECC6 server for user u201CConnectoru201D under T-code SU01 (and unlock the user u201CConnectoru201D in ECC6 server also, if locked).

Letu2019s say you have entered u201Csap12345u201D as password in the screen below for user u201CConnectoru201D.

6.Save your settings in this BI7 server, logon to your ECC6 server and enter T-code SU01. First make sure that the user u201CConnectoru201D is unlocked.

7.Enter the same password as selected in previous screen 5 u201Csap12345u201D using the u201Cchange passwordu201D button on the top of screen below.

8.Save and exit from ECC6 server. Return to your BI7 server screen where you left it previously i.e. at the RFC destination screen in step 5. Press button u201CConnection Testu201D to test your connection settings.

9.You will see following screen if your connection settings are successful.

10.Press Back button. Now test if user u201CConnectoru201D can logon to ECC6 server for data extraction. Click on u201CRemote Logonu201D button on top of the RFC connection screen.

11.If your settings are correct, you should be able to logon to your ECC6 server from this screen directly.

12.You have successfully logged on to SAP ECC6 server from SAP BI7 using User u201CConnectoru201D. The two systems are now connected successfully.

To do the same steps with screen shots, Refer the Configuration Document.
