  • Show details Hide details
  • Changing the RFC Destination
    You are attemping to change the RFC destination to the execution system.
    Changing this RFC destination is very critical and needs to be done very
    carefully.
    Change of Target Is Not Supported
    Changing the target system or the target client of the RFC destination
    after loading a package is not supported. Changing the target may lead
    to INCONSISTENCIES in the target system and invalidates the current
    package.
    If the package was loaded in the wrong target system / client, the
    correct process would be to deactivate the package and load a new
    package in the correct execution system.
    Change of Technical Settings / Login Information
    You can change
    The technical settings, for example usage of the database server instead
    of an application server. Make sure that the target system and client
    are still the same after the change to the settings.
    The login information, for example change of the login language.
    Changing the login user is only possible if the new user has still the
    neccessary authorizations to execute the package steps
