  SAP Error Message:
  WS_INTRASTAT044 No RFC assigned for GTS application; assign in Customizing
  
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs because the system is trying to communicate with the SAP Global Trade Services (GTS) system via Remote Function Call (RFC), but no RFC destination has been assigned or maintained in the customizing settings for the GTS application. Essentially, the integration between the SAP ERP system and the GTS system is not properly configured.
  
  Explanation:
  
  SAP ERP and SAP GTS systems communicate using RFC connections.

  If this RFC destination is missing or not assigned, the system throws the error WS_INTRASTAT044.
