This error can prevent the service from being called successfully.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Logical Port: The logical port that is supposed to be used for the OData service is not defined in the system.
  Incorrect Configuration: The logical port may be defined, but it is not configured correctly, leading to the inability to connect to the backend system.
  Service Not Activated: The OData service may not be activated in the SAP Gateway or the backend system.
  Authorization Issues: There may be authorization issues preventing access to the logical port.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Define a Logical Port:
  
  Go to transaction SOAMANAGER.
  Navigate to the "Web Service Configuration" section.
  Create a new logical port or check the existing one for the OData service.
  Ensure that the logical port is correctly configured with the necessary endpoint URL and authentication details.
  
  
  
  Check Service Activation:
  
  Use transaction IWFND/MAINT_SERVICE to check if the OData service is activated.
  If it is not activated, activate it and ensure that the service is properly registered.
  
  
  
  Verify Configuration:
  
  Ensure that the logical port is assigned to the correct service and that all parameters (like URL, authentication, etc.) are set correctly.
  Check the settings in the logical port configuration to ensure they match the backend service requirements.
  
  
  
  Authorization Check:
  
  Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the logical port and the OData service.
  Check the roles and authorizations assigned to the user.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary changes, test the OData service again to see if the error persists.
