  Check Client Settings:
  
  Verify that you are working in the correct client and that the bgRFC destination is available in that client.
  Check if there are any client-specific settings that might be affecting the bgRFC configuration.
  
  
  
  Authorization Check:

  Check the roles and profiles assigned to the user to ensure they include the necessary permissions.
