    remote component system &V1& using RFC destination &V2&, and whether the
    associated communications user &V3& can log on there. However, this user
    does not have authorization for function group SYST, meaning that it was
    not possible to perform a logon check.

    System Response

    How to fix this error?

    Check in the component system whether the user has been assigned the
    role SAP_BC_LAW_COMMUNICATION or the profile S_LAW_COMM. Assign this
    role or profile to the user, or add the function group SYST to the role.

    Procedure for System Administrators
