SAP Note 647495 - RFC for Unicode ./. non-Unicode Connections

Component : I18N Unicode - RFC

Solution : https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/647495 (SAP Service marketplace login required)

Summary :
SAP Note describes issues with RFCs between Unicode and non-Unicode systems, resulting in exceptions like SYSTEM_FAILURE and various dumps (e.g., RFC_CONVERSION_TABLE). Trace files (dev_wN, dev_rfcN) include error messages linked to language-code conversion issues. Issues also covered include failures in metadata uploads from non-Unicode to Unicode systems, and problems in RFC Destination Maintenance within Unicode systems on MDMP settings usage. Solutions involve checking language keys and ensuring correct code page configurations, as well as using the Unicode Test in SM59 to confirm system language settings. The note highlights necessary kernel patches and manual entry for older systems to manage code page configurations effectively.
