In this presentation ( https://www.sdn.sap.com/content_documents/.../SAP%20XI%202.0%20-%20Features.pdf page 20), the following limitations are listed for the RFC Adapter for XI 2.0:

Functionality

Synchronous RFC

No support forRFMsthat use update task without COMMIT WORK

No SAP GUI

No callbacks

No session handling

No RFCs to non-SAP systems (using RFC client or server libraries)

tRFC: Support for exactly-once delivery for one message/call

Not all tRFC functionality

No „bundling“ of multiple calls

With version 3.0, what are the current limitations??

SAP Documentation states the following:

Constraints

Note the following restrictions:

· Assignment is only guaranteed for transactional RFCs (tRFCs), that is, for messages with quality of service Exactly Once (EO).

· There is no transactional context for more than one RFC call for each LUW (Logical Unit of Work).

· Not provided: SAPGUI, callbacks, and qRFC (quality of service Exactly Once In Order (EOIO)).

· RFC library clients (RFC SDK) are not supported.

· The context in the called system is not kept open over multiple calls (calls are stateless; there is no session).

· Only the payload of a received message is evaluated. Additional attachments are ignored and not forwarded.

· The receiver adapter can only process valid RFC XML documents, for example, those generated by the sender adapter or by the SAP JCo.
