  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SRT_ADMIN013 - Service RFC destination & does not exist (SM59) ?

    The SAP error message SRT_ADMIN013 indicates that a specified RFC (Remote Function Call) destination does not exist in the system. This error typically occurs when trying to configure or use a service that relies on an RFC destination that has not been defined in the SAP system.

    Cause:

    1. Missing RFC Destination: The specified RFC destination is not created in transaction SM59.
    2. Incorrect Configuration: The RFC destination may exist but is incorrectly configured or inactive.
    3. Typographical Error: There may be a typo in the name of the RFC destination being referenced.
    4. Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the RFC destination.

    Solution:

    1. Create the RFC Destination:

      • Go to transaction SM59.
      • Check if the RFC destination exists. If it does not, create a new one:
        • Click on the "Create" button.
        • Enter the name of the RFC destination and configure the necessary parameters (e.g., target host, system number, client, user, password).
        • Save the configuration.
    2. Check Existing RFC Destination:

      • Test the connection using the "Connection Test" button to ensure it is working properly.
    3. Check for Typos:

      • Verify that the name of the RFC destination being referenced in your configuration or code is spelled correctly.
    4. Authorization Check:

      • Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the RFC destination. This may involve checking roles and authorizations in transaction PFCG.
    5. Check for System Issues:

      • If the RFC destination is supposed to exist but is not found, check for any system issues or inconsistencies that may have caused the destination to be deleted or become inactive.
