SAP Note 613389 - ALE SAP system group with Unicode systems

Component : Integration Technology ALE -

Solution : https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/613389 (SAP Service marketplace login required)

Summary :
This SAP Note addresses the integration of SAP systems with diverse code pages, particularly Unicode and non-Unicode systems, via ALE using tRFC ports. It details processes for code page conversions during data exchanges. For conversions between non-Unicode systems, recipients execute conversion, retaining binary codes for non-convertible characters. Conversely, in Unicode to non-Unicode transfers, conversions happen within the Unicode system, possibly yielding errors or replacing unconvertible characters with special characters. Configuration recommendations for "R/3 connections" in transaction SM59 include specifying code pages based on the logon language and handling conversion errors with specific settings.

Key words :
