  Logical systems are used to logically separate different systems from each other. This allows for easier management of the system landscape and helps ensure that changes made in one system do not affect other systems. Logical systems can also be used to separate different clients within the same system, allowing for more efficient management of the system landscape.

  When creating a logical system, it is important to ensure that the name of the logical system is unique and does not conflict with any existing logical systems.
