How To Register A Program In Sap Gateway

Hello,

My proper name is Arthur from the SAP Product Support team.

As an expert of Gateway and RFC areas, I have observed that many times these teams are wrongly contacted to instruct or clarify how to register external programs to Gateway, specially when result "Program <Plan ID> not registered" appears.

This Web log was created to analyze what needs to be checked and how find out registration steps of an external program.

Later reading this Blog, the post-obit skills volition be acquired:

• Definition of a Registered Program.
• Place Program ID and Gateway from of a destination.
• Find the appropriate squad to provide programs registration steps.
• Understand Gateway security rules.
• Exam and validate if a program is able to be registered.

Registered Programs Definition

RFC server programs can exist registered with theGateway and wait for incoming RFC telephone call requests.

The programs are created and registered by applications (SAP standard/ third party/ custom) to process their business requests between external systems and SAP system.

Destinations of Connectedness type T are created on SM59 with program ID and the target Gateway.

Getting Plan and Gateway details on SM59

1. Open transaction SM59
2. Expand "Connection Type T"
3. Double click the destination name.

Registering a plan on Gateway

Every bit per SAP note "353597 – Registration of RFC server programs",  to register a programme on Gateway you lot need to follow the relevant program documentation.

There are thousands of programs (SAP standard/third-party/custom) compatible with SAP systems and RFC mechanisms, each program has particular ways to get registered on the Gateway.

The steps to perform this registration must exist provided by the application squad responsible for the specific programme.

• SAP Standard programs: Find for relevant documentation in our Channels (Launchpad search / Wikis / SAP Help). If further help is required, a new incident tin can exist created to get assistance from the responsible team.
• Tertiary-Party programs: Find for relevant documentation on third-party channels. If this 3rd-party is a SAP partner, further aid tin can exist provided via incident.
• Custom programs: Contact the development team responsible for this custom plan for details.

One time the steps are provided, remember to use the right <Program ID> and the right Gateway to annals this program.

To verify if the external program is already registered:

• ABAP Gateway: Run the transactionSMGW(Goto – Logged on clients) and verify if  the "TP Name" column.
• Standalone Gateway: Use thegwmonprogram to list this data.

Gateway authority checks

Does Gateway let plan registration? Sometimes is possible that the Gateway Security Features of this Gateway are non allowing this program or this server to be registered.

Understanding Gateway security features:

• Read Wiki article Gateway Admission Command Lists to understand how the security rules and behaviors tin can be adjusted for these scenarios.
• The KBA 1850230 has example of how to solve "Not allowed" issues.
• If fifty-fifty after reading this documentation an data is not articulate, either annotate in this Blog or get full specialized back up with (BC-CST-GW) squad.

Testing if Gateway will allow the registration:

• SAP accept an auxiliary test program called "rfcexec" to examination if programs could be registered on Gateway.

Example:

rfcexec -a<Programme ID> -yard<Gateway Host> -ten<Gateway Service>

If the registration exam runs successfully, the program will be visible on Gateway, the "Connection Test" should work.

This data guarantees that Gateway security features are allowing this program to be registered from this server.

ATTENTION : Later the test, united nations-annals this program (Ctrl +C) on rfcexec side, as this registration is only used for testing purpose, it will not work from business concern perspective.

Conclusion

In summary, even the layer of this registration is provided by RFC and Gateway mechanisms, the application team of the plan used is responsible to provide the plan Registration steps.

The Gateway (BC-CST-GW) and RFC (BC-MID-RFC) squad can nonetheless helping if the registration of the program is declining.

For example:

• Checking the Gateway traces to see if the security are assuasive this registration.
• Checking if the program is registered in the correct Gateway.

If further aid is required, check the limitations of each layer and find the proper squad to clarify the doubts.
