How to fix this error?

If you want to use this client productively for Human Resources, you
must define a logical system for it.
The logical system is used for the ALE (Application Link Enabling)
component. The logical system is the unique enterprise-wide description
for this client on the database. When maintaining the logical system,
you should note: The logical system must be unique throughout the
enterprise. It must not be used by any other system in the ALE system
group. In the production system, the logical system must not be changed
if a non-initial value has been entered. If a non-initial logical
system is changed afterwards, the production system may not find
certain documents. If the logical system of a document referenceis not
the same as that of the production system, the system assumes that the
document exists in another system.

Procedure for System Administrators
