XI and user authentication VS R/3 systems

18 Views

Hi *,

I'm trying to configure this kind of scenario:

1) user xyz sends a request to a web service, which is exposed by XI via its outbound interface

2) XI performs all the necessary mapping stuff and via the routing procedure identifies the right inbound interface to contact.

3) the inbound interface, via an RFC adapter, connects to an R/3 system in order to write a purchase order.

4) RFC response is retrived via XI pipeline to the outbound response interface

Problem: maybe xyz has not enough permission to create the purchase order, moreover the standard BAPI, which is involved in this procedure, performs an authorization check on the logged on user.

how can R/3 system know that xyz is the user that would like to perform the purchase order creation and then correctly check xyz permissions?

I have configured, since is mandatory, into the RFC adapter, a logon user but it shouldn't be the same that performs the web service request, in this case xyz.

Any hints?

Many thanks

Cheers
