  The SAP error message PPEENG159 indicates that there is an issue with the original document or object being referenced in a logical system. This error typically arises in the context of Production Planning and Execution (PP/PE) when the system is trying to access or process a document that is not available in the current logical system.
  Cause:
  The error message "Original of &1 &2 is in logical system &3" suggests that the original document (identified by &1 and &2) is located in a different logical system (identified by &3). This can happen due to several reasons:
  
  Cross-Client or Cross-System Issues: The document may have been created in a different SAP system or client, and the current system does not have access to it.
  Data Transfer Issues: If data was supposed to be transferred between systems (e.g., through ALE/IDoc), there may have been a failure in the transfer process.
