Configuring SAP Cloud Integration for an IBP to S/4HANA (on prem / private cloud) integrationConfiguring SAP Cloud Integration for an IBP to S/4HANA (on prem / private cloud) integrationWalks through creating the two BTP destinations an Cloud Integration iflow needs for an IBP-to-S/4HANA integration: one of type RFC with a WebSocket RFC server host and port for the IBP tenant, and one of type RFC with the on-premise proxy type, a Cloud Connector location ID and a virtual host for the S/4HANA system. It then has the reader copy SAP's prebuilt IBP integration packages into the Design workspace and deploy every reusable iflow in them before a business iflow can call the S/4HANA extractor through SAP Connectivity service.SofianePebre, published 2025-08-27

Groovy steps combine the Document AI confidence score and the model's score into one figure that routes low-scoring purchase orders to manual review, with no S/4HANA posting performed.subhojitSaha, published 2026-08-24
Connecting SAP S/4HANA On-Prem Directly to Advanced Event Mesh using Cloud Connector - finally!Connecting SAP S/4HANA On-Prem Directly to Advanced Event Mesh using Cloud Connector - finally!Package Integration 1.4.0 for the Advanced Event Mesh Adapter adds official support for routing through SAP Cloud Connector, so an on-premise SAP S/4HANA system can produce events that SAP Advanced Event Mesh distributes without exposing a public endpoint. The same release changes the adapter's default acknowledgment mode from Automatic Immediate to Automatic On Exchange Complete, altering delivery semantics and error handling. The release notes warn against mixing proxy configurations within one tenant, since that causes unpredictable routing in complex hybrid tenants.sissyhae, published 2026-01-23

Custom Form with Custom Data Source in SAP Public Cloud (Grow with SAP)Custom Form with Custom Data Source in SAP Public Cloud (Grow with SAP)Builds a custom Adobe-based output form for SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition when SAP ships no standard data source: a RAP business object exposes header and item CDS views through a service definition, one view marked as the form's data provider, and the layout is designed offline in Adobe LiveCycle Designer against the exported XML schema before upload and rendering back in the tenant. It draws the line against SAP Forms Service by Adobe on BTP, which the post sets aside in favour of building the form inside the S/4HANA Cloud system itself.Gourab_Dey, published 2026-01-15
Designing Scalable Integration Flows in SAP BTP Using Pallets and AdaptersDesigning Scalable Integration Flows in SAP BTP Using Pallets and AdaptersExplains two building blocks of integration flows in SAP Integration Suite: a pallet, a reusable group of flow steps built as its own integration flow and called from another over the ProcessDirect adapter for loose coupling, with logging, transformation, error-handling, notification and security pallets as examples; and the adapters Cloud Integration ships to reach other systems — REST, SOAP, OData, IDoc, JDBC, ProcessDirect and SFTP — each with the protocols and authentication it supports. Written as a design pattern for reuse across flows rather than a single worked example.Saksham-Mutneja, published 2025-10-16

It sets up the mobile destination against SAP Destination service two ways — reusing the BTP destination already created for the CAP service, or an Internet Destination with OAuth2 User Token Exchange and a manually retrieved client secret — and turns on Cross Context SSO so a token issued in the browser carries into the generic SAP Mobile Services Client app on the phone.published 2025-05-22
DIY JDBC Sender Adapter for SAP Integration SuiteDIY JDBC Sender Adapter for SAP Integration SuiteSimulates the JDBC Sender Adapter that SAP Integration Suite dropped from SAP PO by polling a source database with a Request/Reply step, triggered by a configurable scheduler or a manual HTTP call, and writing the result to a DataStore or JMS Queue to decouple polling from mapping and insertion. Retries run against a configured maximum, a failed batch escalates to a Dead Letter Queue once they are exhausted, and a mapping failure skips retries and escalates straight away from its own local subprocess. The author reports migrating several SAP PO scenarios onto this flow design and offers a reusable template on request.lanza, published 2025-10-21
End to End Currency Conversion Integration using SAP Integration Suite (SAP CPI)End to End Currency Conversion Integration using SAP Integration Suite (SAP CPI)A hands-on build of a currency-conversion integration flow in Cloud Integration: an HTTPS sender adapter takes JSON input, a Request-Reply step calls an external exchange-rate API, and a Groovy script converts the amount and formats it as an HTML table before a Mail Adapter delivers the result. Most of the walkthrough is the Exception Subprocess added after hitting HTTP 500 and 429 errors in testing, which captures the error message, response code and message-processing-log ID and turns them into a readable response instead of a raw stack trace.shahabaz, published 2026-04-09
End-to-End Error Handling with General Splitter and Local FlowsEnd-to-End Error Handling with General Splitter and Local FlowsA Cloud Integration iFlow splits an incoming XML payload with the General Splitter, calls an OData service in parallel for each part and gathers the results, then hands a failed call to an Exception Subprocess, where a Process Call reaches a Local Integration Process that calls a separate exception-handling iFlow over ProcessDirect. In that second flow a Content Modifier puts the interface ID and the stack trace into message headers and the tenant, flow and message ID into exchange properties, a Groovy script saves the message as a plain-text log attachment, and the Mail adapter sends the stack trace as an email; the failure itself is provoked by removing the https prefix from the OData URL. Each step is given with its own configuration, from the splitter's XPath and batch size to the ProcessDirect address format and the headers the exception handler sets.NaveenReddy_06, published 2025-07-02

Event Mesh + AMQP: The Retry Trap Nobody Warns You AboutEvent Mesh + AMQP: The Retry Trap Nobody Warns You AboutWorks through two patterns for retrying failed messages from Event Mesh's AMQP sender adapter on Cloud Integration, whose native retry has no configurable delay or backoff: bridging into a JMS queue for full exponential-backoff control, or looping messages through a dedicated retry queue with a TTL and a Dead Message Queue. Compares both against a Groovy sleep() workaround that blocks the adapter's connection and the runtime's worker thread, and shows that Advanced Event Mesh's own adapter ships configurable retry interval, backoff and broker-side redelivery without either workaround.MateuszPiotrowski, published 2026-03-09
Event-driven Extensions for SAP SuccessFactors on SAP BTP – Connecting the DotsEvent-driven Extensions for SAP SuccessFactors on SAP BTP – Connecting the DotsWalks through an event-driven extension for SAP SuccessFactors: Automated Configurations registers the SuccessFactors system against an SAP BTP account with an integration token, and a SuccessFactors custom integration then pushes events, such as an employee joining or leaving, to a topic in Event Mesh that a CAP application subscribes to. The SuccessFactors APIs themselves are downloaded as EDMX files from SAP API Business Hub and imported into the CAP project, the same EDMX-import path behind service integration, so CAP generates the client used to call them. A reference application, RunSmooth, ties Automated Configurations, Event Mesh and CAP together end to end.Former Member, published 2020-08-12

Exploring SAP Salesforce Adapter - retry mechanism with JMS queueExploring SAP Salesforce Adapter - retry mechanism with JMS queueBuilds a retry design for Salesforce update failures in Cloud Integration on SAP Integration Suite: a Parent iFlow triggered by a Salesforce push topic calls a Child iFlow, whose Exception Subprocess routes specific Salesforce errors to a separate JMS Retry PD iFlow over a ProcessDirect target address. The retry iFlow stores the failed payload in a JMS queue (Enterprise Edition), retries up to five times with exponential backoff, moves exhausted messages to the dead-letter queue, and mails the Application Maintenance team; the author notes the queue's 10 GB size limit and that polling may pause under load.Shailaja, published 2025-09-05

How to Configure Retry Mechanism in SAP BTP CI/IS to Handle Only Connectivity Errors when using AEMHow to Configure Retry Mechanism in SAP BTP CI/IS to Handle Only Connectivity Errors when using AEMShows how to configure a Cloud Integration iFlow with an AEM sender so only connectivity errors trigger a retry: a Groovy script reads the CamelHttpResponseCode header and looks it up in a value map, and a router then sends a transient failure such as a 408 timeout down the retry path, where the retry limit set in AEM applies, and an error needing manual intervention, such as a 401, down a path that ends the flow at once and emails the team. It applies only to receiver adapters that return CamelHttpResponseCode, among them HTTP, SOAP, IDoc and OData.

Intelligent Error Handling in SAP CPI Using AI AdapterIntelligent Error Handling in SAP CPI Using AI AdapterAdds an AI Receiver Adapter to an Exception Subprocess in Cloud Integration, so a failed iFlow sends its captured exception text to an LLM over a chat-completions endpoint and gets back an error summary, cause and resolution for the sender. The walkthrough is concrete about the flow's own mechanics — Security Material for the API key, the adapter's address and request body, a Content Modifier to extract and return the response — which is why it explains Integration flows rather than only the AI feature riding on top of them.Jayesh8909, published 2026-05-21

New CI Pipeline Restart Extension features: supporting new Pipeline package and improved Restart JobNew CI Pipeline Restart Extension features: supporting new Pipeline package and improved Restart JobA restart extension for Cloud Integration pipelines, in version 1.0.1: a Value Mapping or a technical-ID prefix check resolves which pipeline stage a failed message belongs to, so a custom receiver IFlow copy can be linked to the right stage even when its ID does not follow the standard naming, and a Generic Job Profile restarts every scenario resolved through the Alternative Partner approach instead of only the interfaces named in a fixed list. A new RestartJobLog parameter stores each run's log as a Message Processing Log attachment, in the database, or via a custom IFlow, and a companion "Pipeline API – Restart Job Log" Integration Flow retrieves that log or the Restart Job's own MPL details. The walkthrough is concrete about the Integration Flows, Value Mapping and Script Collection that make up the package, which is why it explains Integration flows rather than only the restart feature riding on top of them.slava_kuzyakin, published 2025-10-02
New Pipeline Concept features: integrated runtimes and supporting landscape stagesNew Pipeline Concept features: integrated runtimes and supporting landscape stagesDescribes version 1.0.9 of the Pipeline Concept package for Cloud Integration in SAP Integration Suite, which the post says can be taken from the SAP Business Accelerator Hub: a new integrated messaging runtime step merges inbound conversion with receiver and interface determination, cutting the JMS queues a scenario needs from four to two, or eight to four counting dead-letter queues, and a synchronous variant replaces queues with the ProcessDirect adapter for Content-Based-Router scenarios. It also maps a sender's actual business system name to an alias held in the Partner Directory, so the same XI and IDoc scenario definitions run across DEV, QA and PRD stages without converting names when transporting between them.alex_bundschuh, published 2025-01-29
New Pipeline for Cloud Integration features with version 1.0.11New Pipeline for Cloud Integration features with version 1.0.11Version 1.0.11 of the Process Integration Pipeline package for Cloud Integration changes two defaults the post says require attention. The "tilde option", which built a partner ID by joining the sender system and interface names, is now switched off: a message whose partner ID cannot be resolved through an alternative partner goes into an error that is resolved by fixing the Partner Directory entry and restarting the message, instead of being constructed under an ID that may not exist there and left on the first JMS queue with no way to correct its partner ID header. Keeping the old behaviour means setting the externalised parameter CustomXPid_SwitchOffTilde to false in the five generic flows that call the partner-ID script; the default inbound processing queue also moves from PIPQ01 to PIPX01 in the generic XI and IDoc inbound flows, so those messages go to the integrated messaging runtime rather than the fully decoupled pipeline.alex_bundschuh, published 2025-05-07

Optimized IDoc Routing in SAP CI with Value Mapping and Groovy-Based Receiver DeterminationOptimized IDoc Routing in SAP CI with Value Mapping and Groovy-Based Receiver DeterminationShreyasShenoy07 replaces SAP PI/PO's single shared IDoc destination with a receiver-determination pattern built in Cloud Integration: a generic iFlow reads the IDoc's EDI_DC40 header, looks up the sender identifier and the receiver list in two Value Mapping tables keyed by sender system and IDoc type, and a Groovy script evaluates each receiver's XPath condition before routing the message to a receiver-specific iFlow over the ProcessDirect adapter. Adding or changing a receiver becomes a Value Mapping edit instead of an iFlow redeployment, and the same IDoc can fan out to several receivers when more than one condition matches.ShreyasShenoy07, published 2025-08-08

The BTP Destination service uses OAuth2JWTBearer to exchange the user's Cloud Identity Services JWT for an Integration Suite token, and the iFlow's OData V2 receiver adapter reaches S/4HANA through Cloud Connector with Principal Propagation authentication. The Cloud Connector Subject Pattern builds the outbound certificate's CN from the token's user_name claim, which is populated from the IAS email rather than the sub claim, so identity resolution on S/4HANA hinges on that email matching a resolvable logon name.Joni, published 2026-07-10

Process Integration Pipeline Extension - Restart via Data StoreProcess Integration Pipeline Extension - Restart via Data StoreOn SAP Cloud Integration's Process Integration Pipeline, a message that exhausts its JMS retries lands in a Dead Letter Queue with no API to query or move it, and the JMS broker carries a hard size limit. This package, published on SAP Business Accelerator Hub, replaces that path with Data Store entries written through the pipeline's custom exception-handling exit, a scheduled Restart Job Integration Flow, and two optional HTTP APIs for on-demand restarts and Data Store management. Entry names encode the partner ID, the pipeline stage, the message ID and a retry count, so messages can be filtered and restarted by scenario instead of moved one by one in the queue monitor.mate_moricz, published 2025-07-23

Resend HTTP messages with configured pause and fixed max iteration followed by error handlingResend HTTP messages with configured pause and fixed max iteration followed by error handlingBuilds a retry pattern for a Cloud Integration HTTP Receiver call by splitting the request-reply step into its own local sub-process, which loops on the response code — up to a fixed five iterations, each after a configured pause — and routes to an exception sub-process that attaches the message processing log through Groovy once the count is exceeded or another error occurs. The design is the author's own alternative to the platform's retry pattern and inbuilt HTTP Receiver Adapter retry option, built for cases where neither applies; SAP Event Mesh and SAP Advanced Event Mesh are named only as the queue-based alternative the author considered and set aside.Aman_V, published 2024-01-03

Its central point is that the Kafka offset must be committed only after the pipeline has processed the message successfully, with a worked table of which failure scenarios (missing Confluent magic byte, invalid schema ID, payload over the configured limit) withhold the commit versus let it through, to avoid poison-pill loops and silent message loss.

It compares three candidate architectures — a two-layer router/dispatcher split, the recommended single-layer router, and a rejected global cross-domain router — and covers AVRO payload handling through Base64 and an externalized schema parameter, and consolidating the routing logic into one cached Groovy class to limit JVM class-loading overhead. The piece continues the author's earlier immutable Kafka topic routing post and names SAP Event Mesh as one of several broker-agnostic alternatives to the Kafka adapter used here.rhviana, published 2026-05-25

SAP Cloud Integration (CI/CPI) - Reusable Script Collection Pattern for Sensitive Data MaskingSAP Cloud Integration (CI/CPI) - Reusable Script Collection Pattern for Sensitive Data MaskingOpens with the question compliance teams ask about Cloud Integration, whether an integration team based outside Europe with Message Monitoring access can read the personal data in a logged payload, and answers that in most standard configurations it can. The pattern against it is a reusable Groovy script collection plus one global variable holding the masking rules: a script near the start of an iFlow AES-encrypts the original payload into a header or property and replaces values in the body by value pattern first and field-name keyword second, a second script restores the original just before the sender, so a Log Payload step anywhere in the flow captures the masked body while the target system still receives the real data. The post names its own limits, that pattern-based masking is heuristic and that CPI trace can capture the payload before the scripts run, and grounds the pattern in GDPR Articles 5(1)(f), 25, 32 and 44-49, reading the EDPB's Guidelines 05/2021 to mean that access from a country without an EU adequacy decision, uncovered by Standard Contractual Clauses or another valid transfer mechanism, can itself constitute a cross-border transfer.AdarshRao, published 2026-05-25

SAP Integration Suite: Intelligent Integration with AI AdapterSAP Integration Suite: Intelligent Integration with AI AdapterThe AI Adapter adds generative AI as a receiver step inside a Cloud Integration flow, connecting through either AICore-GenAIHub — a single API onto SAP AI Core's Generative AI Hub and its foundation models — or Custom-OpenAI-Rest, a plain REST call out to a provider such as OpenAI. SAP Integration Suite starts the call from the iFlow and feeds the model's response into the next step, which is the mechanics behind the sentiment-analysis, summarisation and routing use cases the piece lists without walking through any one of them.meena_choudhary, published 2026-01-28
SAP Job Scheduling Service + Cloud Application Programming Model application (CAP) + SAP Authorization and Trust Management Service (XSUAA)SAP Job Scheduling Service + Cloud Application Programming Model application (CAP) + SAP Authorization and Trust Management Service (XSUAA)Calling an unsecured endpoint on a schedule is trivial; this is the same thing once the endpoint is protected. The interesting part is the caller — the Job Scheduling Service is not a person, so CAP's pseudo-roles are where the post spends its time, and $XSSERVICENAME has to match the scheduler's own instance name.former_member412792, published 2022-12-12
SAP Neo Retires – Integration Developers Must Know Before Migrating from Neo to CFSAP Neo Retires – Integration Developers Must Know Before Migrating from Neo to CFWalks through what changes when Cloud Integration moves from the Neo environment to Cloud Foundry under SAP Integration Suite: custom adapters move from an Eclipse-plugin deployment to Integration Adapter artifacts managed in Cloud Integration's Design and Monitor applications, Neo's environment variables (HC_APPLICATION, HC_HOST, HC_REGION and others) map to Cloud Foundry's TENANT_NAME, VCAP_SERVICES and PORT, and OAuth clients for API access move from Neo administration tools to XSUAA under Integration Suite. Covers the same shift for security materials, transport management and monitoring, ahead of Neo's end of maintenance on 31 December 2028.SivaS, published 2025-12-03
SAP PI Migration to BTP Integration Suite Patterns and learning experiencesSAP PI Migration to BTP Integration Suite Patterns and learning experiencesWalks through the integration patterns an SAP PI migration project moved onto SAP Cloud Integration iFlows — API Management proxies fronting calls into on-premise SAP systems over XI/SOAP via Cloud Connector, SFTP transfers, and eventing routes — and the operational lessons from running it: sizing JMS queues, choosing exactly-once JMS queues over Cloud Integration's Data Store for XI receiver adapters and at-least-once JMS for XI sender adapters, and workarounds for gaps in the migration tooling. The API Management proxies handle JWT validation against a non-SAP identity provider, IP filtering and OData-to-OpenAPI conversion in front of the iFlows.saikrishna_kalivarapu2, published 2024-12-04
SAP SOAP Sender & Receiver Adapters: Your Integration Game ChangersSAP SOAP Sender & Receiver Adapters: Your Integration Game ChangersA step-by-step build of two integration flows in Cloud Integration: a SOAP Sender Adapter, bound to an uploaded WSDL, that extracts an order number from an inbound SOAP request via XPath and enriches it with a shipment date fetched from the public Northwind OData service before mapping the result back into the SOAP response. A second flow's SOAP Receiver Adapter takes the reverse path, converting an inbound JSON request to XML and forwarding it to that first flow's SOAP backend, authenticated with Basic auth against a WSDL-derived operation name.Rishikasairi, published 2025-06-24

SAP集成套件中的Cloud Integration云集成功能概况介绍SAP集成套件中的Cloud Integration云集成功能概况介绍An overview of Cloud Integration within SAP Integration Suite: it positions Cloud Integration as the execution engine that processes and moves messages between systems, working alongside Integration Advisor, Trading Partner Management and API Management. It walks through building an integration flow in the low-code editor — connecting over HTTP/OData or RFC with built-in connectors and prebuilt content, transforming and mapping messages, then deploying and monitoring the flow — and closes by naming PI/PO Move, SAP's tooling to assess and migrate existing PI/PO integration content into the suite.ArthurYang, published 2025-10-28
Sending Emails from SAP CAP Applications with Any SMTP ProviderSending Emails from SAP CAP Applications with Any SMTP ProviderWalks through sending mail from a CAP application with no dedicated mail service: create an SMTP destination for a Gmail account in the SAP BTP cockpit, bind it to the Cloud Foundry app, and call the sap-cf-mailer npm package from a CAP service handler naming that destination. The SAP Destination service holds the SMTP host, port and app password so the handler code names only the destination, and the same handler sends plain text, an HTML body, or a message with a base64-encoded attachment.MaheshSirsat1708, published 2025-08-19
Service Interfaces and ABAP Proxy generation support in SAP Integration SuiteService Interfaces and ABAP Proxy generation support in SAP Integration SuiteWalks through importing Service Interface artifacts from an on-premise ES Repository into Cloud Integration in SAP Integration Suite: configuring Cloud Connector and the ES Repository connection, then a wizard that lists and imports the repository's interfaces with their dependent resources. It also covers generating ABAP Proxies so an SAP R/3 or S/4HANA system can reach the Integration Suite tenant, pointing to a companion post for the SM59 destination side of that setup.radhika_javvaji, published 2025-09-18

SFTP File Level Checks in SAP BTP Cloud IntegrationSFTP File Level Checks in SAP BTP Cloud IntegrationFor an SFTP flow in Cloud Integration that an external party triggers, the post recommends polling with SFTP Poll-Enrich rather than relying on the Sender SFTP adapter and its built-in scheduler, and because Poll-Enrich polls one file per trigger, the design is a Main flow whose Looping Process Call repeatedly invokes a Local Integration Process that holds the Poll-Enrich step. On top of that design, it adds four router conditions, each checked against SAP_PollEnrichMessageFound, CamelLoopIndex, CamelFileName or CamelFileLength: no file found on the first poll, no more files left mid-loop, more than one file present when exactly one should be processed, and an empty file, each letting the flow terminate or raise an exception instead of failing on an unhandled read.Srishti_Gupta, published 2024-09-16
Step-By-Step Guide: Google Sheets API Integration in SAP CPI via Open ConnectorsStep-By-Step Guide: Google Sheets API Integration in SAP CPI via Open ConnectorsWalks through connecting Google Sheets to Cloud Integration using Open Connectors rather than the Google Sheets API directly: enabling it under SAP Integration Suite's Extend Non-SAP Connectivity, creating a Google Sheets V4 instance with OAuth sign-in, retrieving the sheet ID and base URL, and wiring the instance credentials into an iFlow's Request-Reply step. A Groovy script in the iFlow converts the connector's JSON response into XML, and the piece closes by pointing to Open Connectors' Activity log for tracking API calls made through the instance.Daggolu_PremSai, published 2025-02-24
Stop Building From Scratch: Unlocking SAP Cloud Integration’s Standard ContentStop Building From Scratch: Unlocking SAP Cloud Integration’s Standard ContentArgues against building integrations from scratch by pointing to the Discover space of Cloud Integration: over 700 prebuilt integration packages and nearly 4000 iFlows, covering common scenarios such as S/4HANA-to-Salesforce business-partner and order sync, included at no extra cost under an SAP Integration Suite licence. Walks through where to find and copy a package, and the support trade-off it creates: SAP keeps supporting the standard baseline, but once a flow is directly modified the customer owns the lifecycle of that change, which the author sets against patterns like overlay mappings and wrapper orchestrators that preserve support.Punith_Oswal, published 2025-12-19
Surviving and Thriving with the SAP Cloud Application Programming Model: Local development hurdlesSurviving and Thriving with the SAP Cloud Application Programming Model: Local development hurdlesThree hurdles in running a CAP application locally: services mocked with cds run --with-mocks return no data across OData associations until the ON clause is hand-written into the imported CDS, an on-premise API reached through the SAP Cloud Connector times out because its proxy is part of destinations and connectivity and reachable only from inside SAP BTP, and a Fiori frontend served from the HTML5 Application Repository needs the HTML5 Repo Mock to reach a local backend at all. It closes with the launch configurations the author uses for debugging cds watch locally and attaching to a running Cloud Foundry instance.maxstreifeneder, published 2023-02-02
Triggering Background Jobs from RAP Actions – A Practical GuideTriggering Background Jobs from RAP Actions – A Practical GuideWalks through a RAP business object whose Saver Class calls a function module IN BACKGROUND TASK from the save phase, and that function module in turn uses JOB_OPEN, SUBMIT ...

Use Datastore to avoid too many duplicate MPL attachments in exception retriesUse Datastore to avoid too many duplicate MPL attachments in exception retriesWalks through an Integration flows design on Cloud Integration: an exception subprocess that writes the source and in-flight payloads to a DataStore entry, keyed by the message's correlation header and overwritten on each retry, instead of a Groovy script attaching both payloads to the message processing log on every run. With unrestricted retries left in place, one interface the author retried 14 times produced two DataStore entries instead of up to 28 message processing log attachments; the post also notes that deleting the DataStore entry for a retrying message marks it Cancelled in monitoring without stopping the retries.pdimri, published 2025-11-26

Using Communication Targets for Outbound RFC Communication in ABAPUsing Communication Targets for Outbound RFC Communication in ABAPWalks through calling a remote-enabled ABAP function module through a communication target instead of a direct RFC destination: on-premise, the APPLDEST transaction creates an application destination (client, CPIC type, host from SM51, authentication); in the cloud, saving a communication arrangement for an outbound-RFC communication scenario creates one automatically. ABAP code reaches the function with CALL FUNCTION (...) IN REMOTE SESSION, naming the application_destination parameter when a communication target has more than one assigned destination, and the piece walks a worked call to RFC_SYSTEM_INFO.Nikolina_MH, published 2025-11-10

Using SAP managed iFlows for Time series data Integration in SAP IBP – Part 1 - Reading dataUsing SAP managed iFlows for Time series data Integration in SAP IBP – Part 1 - Reading dataWalks through a custom iFlow that reads time-series and master data out of SAP IBP by calling the RFC function modules IBP exposes under communication scenario SAP_COM_0931, reusing SAP's own "SAP IBP – Reusable Integration Flows" package discovered inside SAP Integration Suite and run from SAP Cloud Integration. The call itself goes through an SAP Destination service destination of type RFC — Proxy Type Internet, a communication-user's credentials and jco.client.* properties for host, port and serialization — rather than a connection wired by hand, which is the destination handling RFC connectivity asks for. It also covers the asynchronous read: a UUID transaction id and an offset-driven paging loop for pulling large result sets in packages.Domnic, published 2025-07-18
