# Create, Test & List RFC Destinations

## Verify SAP Time Zone Configuration

Make sure the SAP system and the operating system use the same time zone. If they don't match, the Agent won't be able to collect accurate time data.

### Recommended Practice

In SAPGUI, use transaction SE16 to display table TTZCU and confirm that field TZONESYS contains the same time zone as the OS time zone. If not, then use transaction STZAC to correct the system time zone.

{% hint style="warning" %}
The time zone must also match for the specific SAP user used to establish the RFC connection. Even if the system time zone is correct, a mismatch in the user's individual time zone setting will cause time data collection errors. To verify or update the user's time zone, use transaction **SU01** and check the **Logon Data** tab.
{% endhint %}

## Create RFC Destinations

The next step is to create RFC Destinations for your QAS and Production systems.

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Prerequisite:** Run `slabapcli sealights set` before running `rfc set`. The automatic verification step requires a valid SeaLights token.
{% endhint %}

Creates or updates an RFC Destination for an SAP system. The username and password are entered interactively and stored encrypted.

```batch
slabapcli.exe rfc set --name <rfc> --hostname <hostname> --sysnr <sysnr> --client <client> --lang <language>
```

| Parameter    | Required | Description                          |
| ------------ | -------- | ------------------------------------ |
| `--name`     | Yes      | RFC Destination name (e.g. `S21`).   |
| `--hostname` | Yes      | SAP system hostname.                 |

{% code title="Command" overflow="wrap" %}

```batch
slabapcli.exe rfc set --name "S21" --hostname "vwsvtstsap13.tricentis.com" --sysnr "00" --client "100" --lang "EN"
