R/2 AND R/3

By which technology R/2 can be linked with R/3 system and share data

Sorry can you please explain what exactly are you looking out for...

U cannot link both of them as one is mainframe based other a client-server. Yes, I do agree with the below comments that you can do the linkup via ALE etc.

Hi,

R/2 is SAP AG mainframe solution and was the first compact software package for the whole spectrum of business applications.

SAP R/2 runs on mainframes, such as IBM, Siemens, Amdahl. The current version of R/2 is 6.1.

This mainframe solution is not open, although with the help of <b>ALE (Application Link Enabled) technology</b>, R/2 can be linked to R/3 systems and share online data.

Hope this will help.

Hi,

you need to maintain RFC destinations using SM59.

and you can connect or check the connections from SM59 itself.

Hi Anupama,

SAP has two main products in the business software market, Mainframe system R/2 and Client-server R/3. Both are targeted to business application solutions. Here R indicates REAL TIME.

R/2 is SAP AG mainframe software that runs on IBM, Siemens and other compatible equipment. <b>This type of solution cannot be open, but with ALE technology, R/2 can be linked with R/3 system and share data.</b> This system is mainly targeted at enterprises with data-intensive and centralized industries.

Thanks,

Hi !

We hat that ... long time ago ...

You can do RFC from R2 to R3 and from R3 to R3.

In R3 you'll need a RFC-Destination of the connection-type "2". And there hat to be a "gwhost" calld module that can communicate via LU6.2 with the R2.

In R2 you'll need the RFC-Module wich has the be installed separately.

Then there are some tables to set up the destinations (similar to the SM59 im R3). Sorry ... I've forgotten the name of that T... tables in R2.

That's what I remeber of that...

Some points would be nice if that helped a bit.
