  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message LTR2_KB_GUI172 - RFC settings are incomplete.Please maintain it. ?

    The SAP error message "LTR2_KB_GUI172 RFC settings are incomplete. Please maintain it." typically indicates that there is an issue with the Remote Function Call (RFC) settings in your SAP system. This error can occur in various contexts, often related to the configuration of the SAP Landscape Transformation (SLT) or other data replication scenarios.

    Cause:

    1. Incomplete RFC Configuration: The RFC destination required for the operation is not fully configured. This could mean that the destination is missing, or the necessary parameters (like user credentials, connection type, etc.) are not set up correctly.
    2. Authorization Issues: The user associated with the RFC connection may not have the necessary authorizations to perform the required operations.
    3. Network Issues: There may be network connectivity issues between the systems involved in the RFC call.
    4. System Configuration: The system may not be properly configured to handle the specific data replication or transformation tasks.

    Solution:

    1. Check RFC Destination:

      • Go to transaction code SM59 in the SAP GUI.
      • Look for the relevant RFC destination (e.g., for SLT, it might be something like LTR2_*).
      • Ensure that the destination is correctly configured with the appropriate connection type (e.g., TCP/IP) and that all required parameters are filled in.
    2. Test the RFC Connection:

      • In the SM59 transaction, select the RFC destination and use the "Test Connection" button to verify that the connection is working properly.
      • If the test fails, check the error messages for more details.
    3. Check User Authorizations:

      • Ensure that the user specified in the RFC destination has the necessary authorizations to perform the required operations. This may involve checking roles and profiles assigned to the user.
    4. Review System Configuration:

      • Ensure that the SLT or relevant data replication settings are correctly configured. This may involve checking the configuration in transaction LTRC (for SLT) or other relevant transactions.
    5. Consult SAP Notes:

      • Check the SAP Support Portal for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error message or provide additional troubleshooting steps.
    6. Network Configuration:

      • If there are network issues, ensure that the necessary ports are open and that there are no firewall rules blocking the connection between the systems.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:

      • SM59: RFC Destinations
      • LTRC: SLT Configuration
      • SU01: User Maintenance (to check user authorizations)
