Tab page MDMP_Unicode in transaction SM59 contains various code page handling settings.

Procedure

You can make the following settings for code pages:

Communication type with the target system.

Here, you specify whether the RFC Destination is a Unicode system or a non-Unicode (MDMP) system. Using the Unicode Test button you can call this information from the target system.

For non-Unicode destinations you can choose different options:

·         Code page of logon language at client side

If you select this option then the codepage is used that is assigned to the logon language at the client side.

·         Explicit codepage

Using this option you can define a fixed codepage for this destination.

·         MDMP active

If you select this option you can maintain the related assignment list of codepages using the Details button.

Character Conversion

Here, you define how conversion errors are handled:

·         RFC continues despite conversion errors, with non-convertible characters being replaced by the replacement character #' (default).

·         RFC terminates with conversion errors (short dump).

·         RFC ignores conversion errors where non-convertable characters are replaced by a freely-selected replacement character.
