Configuring an SAP system to send and receive IDocs

To send or receive IDoc from SAP ECC, you must set up HCL OneTest™ API or HCL OneTest™ Virtualization as a registered TCP/IP program.

About this task

The following procedure is only an example of how the configuration is typically handled. For complete assistance with the setup, contact your SAP system administrator.

Procedure

  1. Log into the SAP system.
  2. Define a remote function call (RFC) for HCL OneTest™ API.
    1. Set start transaction for SM59.
      1. Right-click on the menu area.
      2. Click Set Start transaction.
      3. Enter the transaction code in the pop-up and click the tick mark.
    2. Enter a name for the RFC destination. For example, RITESTER.
    3. Enter the program ID. For example, RIT. The value is used in the physical configuration of the resource.

    4. Click Connection Test to verify that HCL OneTest™ API or HCL OneTest™ Virtualization is connected. For the connection to work, however, a test with an active Subscribe step or a virtual service must be running.
  3. Define an RFC Port for the IDoc processing.
    1. Set start transaction for WE21.
    2. Enter a name for the RFC port. For example, RITPORT.
    3. Configure RITPORT to point to the RFC Destination created in Step 2 (RITESTER in the example).

  4. Define a logical system for HCL OneTest™ API.
    1. Set start transaction for BD54.
    2. Enter a name for the logical system. For example, RITSYS.
      Defining a logical system

      Ignore any warning message that appears.

  5. Create a logical system partner profile.
    1. Set start transaction for WE20.
    2. Create a partner profile and configure it to use the logical system defined in Step 4; that is, enter RITSYS in the Partner No field.

    3. Configure the inbound and outbound IDoc types as appropriate.
