The message usually states that the RFC name for the source system has been deleted or is not available.
  Cause:
  
  Deleted RFC Destination: The RFC destination that was previously configured for the source system has been deleted or is no longer valid.

  If necessary, reconfigure the source system.
  
  
  
  Check Authorizations:
