Documentation
Definition
Contains the name of the logical system in which the message was created.
The system names must have been defined.
In SAP terms a client corresponds to a logical system. When you define a client, you can specify which logical system corresponds to the client.
The logical system is important in the following SAP areas:
- ALE generally, where communication takes place between two or more logical systems.
- ALE distribution scenarios (for example, cost center accounting) where a system running a particular application is defined. Only in this system, for example, can master data be changed,
- Workflow objects: The object key always contains the logical system where the object is located.
When you define the logical system keep in mind that:
- The logical system must be unique company-wide. No other system in the ALE system group can be used.
- The logical system must not be changed in the productive system, once a non-initial value has been specified. If a logical system with a non- initial value is changed afterwards, you may not be able to find documents in your own system. If the logical system specified in a document reference is not the same as your own system, the system assumes the document is located in a different system.
