• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message OL860 - No destination could be determined for logical system &1 ?

  The SAP error message OL860 ("No destination could be determined for logical system &1") typically occurs when the system is unable to find a suitable communication destination for the specified logical system. This can happen in various scenarios, such as when trying to send IDocs, RFC calls, or other types of communication between systems.
  Causes:
  
  Missing Logical System Configuration: The logical system specified in the error message is not defined in the SAP system.
  Incorrect Configuration: The logical system may be defined, but the configuration for the communication destination (RFC destination) is incorrect or incomplete.
  Transport Layer Issues: If the logical system is part of a transport layer, there may be issues with the transport configuration.
  Network Issues: There may be network connectivity issues preventing the system from reaching the destination.
  Authorization Issues: The user or process attempting to access the logical system may not have the necessary authorizations.
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Logical System Configuration:
  
  Go to transaction SALE (or SPRO for configuration) and navigate to the relevant section to check if the logical system is defined correctly.
  Ensure that the logical system name matches the one used in the error message.
  
  
  
  Define RFC Destination:
  
  Use transaction SM59 to check if the RFC destination for the logical system is defined.
  If it is missing, create a new RFC destination with the appropriate settings (e.g., connection type, target host, system number).
  
  
  
  Check Transport Configuration:
  
  If the logical system is part of a transport layer, ensure that the transport routes are correctly configured.
  Use transaction STMS to check transport routes and ensure that the logical system is included.
  
  
  
  Network Connectivity:
  
  Verify that there are no network issues preventing communication between the systems.
  Check firewall settings, network routes, and ensure that the target system is reachable.
  
  
  
  Authorization Check:
  
  Ensure that the user or process has the necessary authorizations to access the logical system.
  Check user roles and profiles to confirm that they include the required permissions.
