03 QRFC & Logical Systems - in EWM
Note
In case EWM is installed as addon to SAP ERP, you have already configured the logical systems in Configuring
Logical Systems in ERP. No action is necessary in here.
Note
This procedure is an optional step in the ERPEWM integration.
As an alternative you can use the implementation tool for system integration to carry out the steps. In this case you
need authorization for crossclient activities to use the implementation tool. For more information, see Configuring
System Connection and Client Settings in EWM.
Additionally this procedure gives you an overview of the entities used in EWM to configure the system connections. Some
deployment examples illustrate the relationship between these system connection entities.
Overview of Entities Used in EWM to Configure the System Connections
While the queued remote function call (qRFC) communication in ERP involves only RFC destinations and logical systems,
EWM uses additional entities for the system connections:

5/14/2015 Configuring Logical Systems in EWM SAP Documentation
In Customizing for Extended Warehouse Management you find the settings regarding the logical systems and business
system groups under Interfaces ERP Integration General Settings .
In Customizing for SCM Basis you find the settings regarding the business systems under Integration Basic Settings
for Creating the System Landscape .
Note
Although no customizing transport is possible for the business system groups and business systems, you create them in
the EWM customizing client using the Implementation Tool for System Connection in EWM and transport the data set
created by the tool to the other EWM systems and clients. For more information, see Configuring System Connection
and Client Settings in EWM.
The following deployment examples illustrate the relationship between the system connection entities and explain the
steps required to set up the system connection:
Example Relationship
Example 1 One unique EWM system installed on an own server linked to one unique ERP
Example 2 One unique EWM system installed as an addon to ERP
Example 3 One EWM system (installed on an own server) linked to one ERP system
(System landscape separated in customizing, test, and production system)
Example 4 One EWM installed as an addon to ERP
(System landscape separated in customizing, test, and production system)
Example 5 One EWM test system (installed on an own server) linked to two ERP test systems
Procedure
Carry out the first step of the procedure in your EWM customizing client allowing crossclient settings and transport if
necessary the settings to other EWM systems. Carry out the subsequent step in all EWM systems (in a client allowing
crossclient settings) you want to connect to ERP.
1. Define a logical system for each ERP client (for example, ERPCLNT001) and a logical system for each EWM client
(for example, EWMCLNT001) in Customizing for SCM Basis under Integration Basic Settings for Creating the
System Landscape Name Logical Systems .
In a typical system landscape, you define three logical systems for ERP (ERP customizing, ERP test, and ERP
production system) and two logical systems for EWM (EWM test and EWM production system). Transport if
necessary these settings to other EWM systems.
Recommendation
Use the same naming conventions for the logical systems as for the RFC destinations.
2. Assign the EWM logical system defined in the first step to the EWM client (for example, in system EWM, assign
EWMCLNT001 to client 001) in Customizing for SCM Basis under Integration Basic Settings for Creating the
System Landscape Assign Logical Systems to a Client .
