• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /ISDFPS/SYNC005 - Central system &1 found for logical system &2 ?

  The SAP error message /ISDFPS/SYNC005 Central system &1 found for logical system &2 typically occurs in the context of SAP Data Hub or SAP Landscape Management when there is a mismatch or misconfiguration related to the logical systems in your SAP landscape.
  Cause:
  
  Logical System Configuration: The error indicates that the system is trying to synchronize or connect to a logical system that is already associated with a central system. This can happen if the logical system is incorrectly configured or if there are multiple systems trying to connect to the same logical system.
  System Landscape Issues: There may be inconsistencies in the system landscape configuration, such as duplicate entries or incorrect mappings between the central and satellite systems.
  Transport Layer Issues: If you are using transport layers, there might be issues with the transport routes or configurations that lead to this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Logical System Configuration:
  
  Go to transaction SCC4 in the SAP GUI and verify the configuration of the logical systems. Ensure that the logical system &2 is correctly defined and not associated with multiple central systems.
  If necessary, adjust the configuration to ensure that each logical system is uniquely associated with a single central system.
  
  
  
  Review System Landscape:
  
  Use transaction SMLT to check the landscape configuration and ensure that there are no duplicate entries or incorrect mappings.
  If you find inconsistencies, correct them by removing or reconfiguring the logical systems as needed.
  
  
  
  Check Transport Routes:
  
  Review the transport routes in transaction STMS to ensure that they are correctly set up and that there are no conflicts in the transport layer that could lead to this error.
  
  
  
  Reconfigure Connections:
  
  If the issue persists, consider reconfiguring the connections between the systems. This may involve deleting and recreating the logical system or adjusting the RFC destinations.
