• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /UI2/CORE_FES013 - SM59 destination does not exist for system alias &1 ?

  The SAP error message /UI2/CORE_FES013 indicates that there is an issue with the configuration of a system alias in the SAP Gateway or Fiori environment. Specifically, it means that the system alias referenced in the error message does not have a corresponding destination defined in the SM59 transaction.
  Cause:
  
  Missing RFC Destination: The system alias specified in the error message does not have a corresponding RFC (Remote Function Call) destination defined in the SAP system.
  Incorrect Configuration: The system alias may be incorrectly configured or may not exist in the system.
  Transport Issues: If the system alias was recently transported from another system, the destination may not have been transported correctly.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the destination.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check System Alias Configuration:
  
  Go to transaction /IWFND/MAINT_SERVICE and check the system alias configuration.
  Ensure that the system alias mentioned in the error message is correctly defined.
  
  
  
  Create or Update RFC Destination:
  
  Go to transaction SM59.
  Check if the destination for the system alias exists. If it does not, create a new RFC destination with the same name as the system alias.
  If it exists, verify that it is correctly configured (e.g., connection type, target host, system number, etc.).
  
  
  
  Test the RFC Connection:
  
  After creating or updating the RFC destination, test the connection by selecting the destination in SM59 and clicking on the "Connection Test" button.
  Ensure that the connection is successful.
  
  
  
  Check Authorizations:
  
  Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the RFC destination. This may involve checking roles and profiles assigned to the user.
  
  
  
  Check Transport Requests:
  
  If the system alias was transported, ensure that the transport request included all necessary objects and that they were imported correctly.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  System Aliases: System aliases are used in SAP Gateway to define connections to backend systems. They are essential for Fiori applications to communicate with the backend.
  RFC Destinations: RFC destinations are used to define how the SAP system connects to other systems, whether they are SAP systems or non-SAP systems.
  Transaction Codes:
  
  /IWFND/MAINT_SERVICE: For managing OData services and system aliases.
  SM59: For managing RFC destinations.
  
  
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address specific issues related to system aliases or RFC destinations.
