Cross-system method call

[Veit Unger]

Hi Kjetil,

actually it is possible.

Using the macros you would need to do for example a 
"swc_create_remote_object lref_object type key logsys".
After that a normal "swc_call_method..." will do fine.

But there are some prerequisites:
- you need to maintain the logical systems (BD54)
- you need to have a suitable RFC destination (SM59)
- you need to link the logical system to the destination (BD97)

kind regards,
Veit

Cross-system method call






We are on version 4.6C in one of our systems, and version ECC 6.0 (basis 
and cross-app version 7.0) in another system. I have to create a report 
which needs data from both of these systems. The report will be executed 
on the ECC 6.0 system.
 
In the spirit of OO the idea I had was to retrieve a table of (runtime or 
persistent if I have to) object references from the 4.6C and then query 
each object for its details. 
I've looked in The Book (Practical Workflow for SAP) a bit, and it seems 
that this is not possible. I can understand runtime objects not being 
possible since the context is likely to be lost after the first call (so 
the handles wouldn't be available), but from what I understand the other 
option is not possible either, as it seems only RFC calls are possible 
between systems. So why do we have the LOGSYS element in structure 
SWOTOBJID? Is there another possibility I haven't discovered?
