    FREE ,, Token owned by local system
    MOVD ,, Token owned by partner system
    REFD ,, Waiting for confirmation from partner system

    system and display the status there. You can also display the status in
    the partner system by entering the logical system of the partner system
    in the "remote token manager system" in the initial screen.
    There is an inconsistency, for example, if the status of the token is
    the same in both systems.
    Inform SAP support in order to determine the cause of the inconsistency
