  The SAP error message /IBX/PE_PROC_SRV017 Class &1 for processing group &2 is not a single record subprocess typically indicates an issue related to the configuration of a process or subprocess in the SAP system, particularly in the context of the SAP Business Process Management (BPM) or SAP Integration processes.
  Cause:
  
  Configuration Issue: The error usually arises when the specified class for the processing group is not set up correctly to handle single record subprocesses. This could be due to incorrect settings in the process configuration or the class definition.
  Multiple Records: The processing group may be configured to handle multiple records, but the system is expecting a single record subprocess.
  Data Integrity: There may be issues with the data being processed, such as unexpected formats or missing fields that prevent the subprocess from being recognized as a single record.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Configuration: Review the configuration of the processing group and the associated class. Ensure that the class is defined to handle single record subprocesses.
  
  Navigate to the relevant configuration settings in the SAP system (e.g., transaction codes like SPRO for configuration).
  Verify that the processing group and class are correctly linked and configured.
