Guided Configuration - Test RFC Destinations

An RFC Destination in the Guided Configuration - RFC Destinations screen may be tested to determine whether it will work as expected when used in LiveCompare apps and workflows. The tests check whether:

  • The RFC Destination’s SAP system can be accessed.

  • The SAP system includes the correct LiveCompare core transports.

  • The SAP user account associated with the RFC Destination has the correct authorizations.

  • The SAP system is Unicode or non-Unicode. The internal definition of the RFC Destination is adjusted if required.

  • The ABAP Unit Tests transport has been installed (if it is required for this SAP kernel release).

To test an RFC Destination, click its Test icon. icon in the last column of the RFC Destinations table. The Test Connection screen is displayed.

Test Connection screen (RFC Destination).

This screen has the following tabs.

Components

If LiveCompare is able to connect to the SAP system, the Components tab lists the LiveCompare components that are expected to be found, and their status, modification details and description.

LiveCompare checks for the following components.

Component Description
Core LiveCompare’s core components.
AUT The ABAP Unit Tests transport (if required for this SAP kernel release).
BW LiveCompare’s BW transports.
HR LiveCompare’s HR transports.

The STATUS column is set to:

  • Found if the correct version of the component was found.

  • Incompatible if the component was found, but it has an incompatible version.

  • Missing if the component could not be found.

  • Uninstalled if a BW or HR component has been uninstalled.

Required authorizations

If LiveCompare is able to connect to the SAP system, the Required Authorizations tab lists the authorizations that the SAP user account associated with the RFC Destination is expected to have. The STATUS column is set to:

  • Found if the authorization could be found.

  • Missing if the authorization could not be found.

Note that not all the listed authorizations may be required. For example, BW authorizations are not required on non-BW systems.

User’s authorizations

If LiveCompare is able to connect to the SAP system, the User’s Authorizations tab lists the authorizations assigned to the SAP user account associated with the RFC Destination being tested.
