  The SAP error message /SCWM/EEC_CHECK040 indicates that the ERP logical system specified is not defined in the system. This error typically occurs in the context of Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) when there is an attempt to perform an operation that requires a connection to an ERP system, but the logical system is not properly configured.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Logical System Definition: The logical system that is being referenced in the operation is not defined in the SAP system.
  Incorrect Configuration: The logical system may be incorrectly configured or not assigned to the relevant client.
  Transport Issues: If the configuration was recently transported from another system, the logical system may not have been included in the transport request.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Define the Logical System:
  
  Go to transaction code SCC4 to check the logical system settings.
  Ensure that the logical system is defined for the client you are working in.
  If it is not defined, you can create a new logical system by going to transaction SBD1 (for creating a logical system) and entering the appropriate details.
  
  
  
  Assign Logical System to Client:
  
  After defining the logical system, ensure it is assigned to the correct client. This can be done in transaction SCC4 by selecting the client and assigning the logical system.
  
  
  
  Check EWM Configuration:
  
  In the EWM configuration, ensure that the logical system is correctly assigned to the warehouse and that all necessary settings are in place.
  You can check this in the EWM customizing settings under Logistics Execution -> Extended Warehouse Management -> Integration with ERP -> Define Logical Systems.
  
  
  
  Transport Requests:
  
  If the logical system was supposed to be transported from another system, check the transport requests to ensure that the logical system configuration was included and successfully imported.
  
  
  
  Check RFC Connections:
  
  Ensure that the RFC connection between EWM and the ERP system is correctly set up and functioning. You can check this in transaction SM59.
