Communication Error, CPIC return code 020 SAP return code 223 when invoking a Function Module

[jyothiraghav_jinka]

Hi

I am trying to invoke a User Create Function Module in SAP ECC from DS 4.2. This was working a few days back but now the job trace logs shows bad system message. So I tried to check the SM21 log where it throws "Communication Error, CPIC return code 020 SAP return 223" error.

I tried invoking another Function Module for Partner Create which loads and returns out successfully. But the module for User Create still throws the error.

When trying to debug the function module, it was noticed the job fails before entering the module.

Could you please help me on this.

Thanks

Thanks Daya, Arun..

Yes I have referred to these posts but this error is for SAP Return code 223 and invoking the Function Module from Data Services. The Function Module works fine when testing from inside SAP but the same test data when used from Data Services provides this error. The ABAP Team is still puzzled with this behavior.

Hi Arun

Yes this is the way function module was invoked. We were able to resolve the issue today. We tried using the performance trace and looked at the which point the error occured and we found some issue on the return structure where the communication failure occured.
