  The SAP error message /IWFND/CM_MGW370 System Alias specification not supported in Multi-destination context typically occurs in the context of SAP Gateway services when there is an issue with the configuration of system aliases in a multi-destination scenario. This error indicates that the system alias specified in the request is not supported when multiple destinations are involved.
  Cause:
  
  Multi-Destination Configuration: The error usually arises when a service is configured to use multiple destinations, but the system alias specified in the request does not align with the expected configuration.
  Incorrect System Alias: The system alias being used may not be defined correctly in the SAP Gateway or may not be available for the requested service.
  Service Configuration: The OData service might be configured to use a specific system alias that is not compatible with the multi-destination setup.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check System Alias Configuration:
  
  Go to the SAP Gateway system and check the configuration of the system aliases. Ensure that the system alias you are trying to use is correctly defined and available for the service.

  Adjust Request:
  
  If you are making a request that specifies a system alias, consider removing it or adjusting it to match the expected configuration for multi-destination scenarios.
