SAP JCo Interface 
You use this action to create a connection to the SAP Java Connector (JCo) interface from the ERP server and create a Remote Function Call (RFC) request. The SAP JCo Interface action is used to send XML messages to and from the ERP system.
Note
The RFC request is an XML document. You can link data to the XML request document to customize the request.
The SAP JCo Interface action uses the following:
The local implementation's name space, which is displayed on the RFC interface
The ERP system logon credentials so you do not need to use an alias. You can use a common user but individual credentials.
NoteThe SAP JCo Interface action also accepts an SAP SSO2 logon ticket. Therefore, if you logged on to SAP NetWeaver Portal and configured SAP Manufacturing Integration and Intelligence (SAP MII) to accept this ticket for an integrated logon, you can pass the ticket to the action without requesting user credentials.
End of the note.
Integration
You use this action with the ERP system.
