  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/EEC_CHECK036 - Different releases for RFC destination &3 ?

    The SAP error message /SCWM/EEC_CHECK036 indicates that there is a mismatch in the release versions between the RFC (Remote Function Call) destination and the system you are trying to connect to. This error typically occurs in the context of Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) when there is an attempt to communicate with another SAP system or service, and the versions are incompatible.

    Cause:

    1. Version Mismatch: The RFC destination is pointing to a system that is running a different version of SAP than the one expected by the current system.
    2. Configuration Issues: The RFC destination may not be configured correctly, leading to a connection to an unintended system.
    3. Transport Issues: If there have been recent transports or upgrades, the systems may not be aligned in terms of their software versions.

    Solution:

    1. Check RFC Destination:

      • Go to transaction SM59 in the SAP GUI.
      • Locate the RFC destination mentioned in the error message (denoted as &3).
      • Verify the configuration and ensure that it points to the correct system.
    2. Verify System Versions:

      • Check the SAP version of both the source and target systems. You can do this by using transaction SLICENSE or SPAM to view the installed components and their versions.
      • Ensure that both systems are compatible and ideally running the same version or at least compatible versions.
    3. Update RFC Destination:

      • If the target system has been upgraded or changed, update the RFC destination to point to the correct system or adjust the settings accordingly.
    4. Test Connection:

      • After making any changes, use the "Connection Test" feature in SM59 to ensure that the RFC destination is working correctly.
    5. Consult Documentation:

      • Review SAP Notes related to the specific versions of the systems involved. There may be specific compatibility notes or patches that need to be applied.
    6. Contact SAP Support:

      • If the issue persists after checking the above points, consider reaching out to SAP support for further assistance, especially if this is a production environment.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:
