• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/MD073 - Logical system does not exist or it does not have RFC Destination ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/MD073 Logical system does not exist or it does not have RFC Destination typically occurs in the context of SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) when the system is trying to access a logical system that is either not defined in the system or does not have a proper Remote Function Call (RFC) destination configured.
  Cause:
  
  Logical System Not Defined: The logical system you are trying to use may not be defined in the SAP system.
  Missing RFC Destination: The logical system exists, but there is no RFC destination configured for it, or the existing RFC destination is not functioning correctly.
  Incorrect Configuration: There may be a misconfiguration in the settings related to the logical system or the RFC destination.
  Transport Issues: If the logical system was recently transported, it may not have been set up correctly in the target system.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Logical System Configuration:
  
  Go to transaction BD54 to check if the logical system is defined.

  Check System Settings:
  
  Ensure that the logical system is assigned to the correct client and that the necessary authorizations are in place.
