  The SAP error message SRT_WSP2365 indicates that there is an issue with the assignment of an IBC (Integration Broker Configuration) reference to a provider system. Specifically, it means that the IBC reference you are trying to assign is already linked to another provider system.
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate Assignment: The IBC reference you are trying to use is already assigned to a different provider system. Each IBC reference can only be associated with one provider system at a time.
  Configuration Error: There may be a misconfiguration in the system where the same IBC reference is being attempted to be assigned to multiple provider systems.
  Data Consistency Issues: There could be inconsistencies in the configuration data, possibly due to manual changes or errors during system updates.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Existing Assignments: 
  
  Go to the relevant configuration area in SAP where IBC references are managed (usually in the SOA Manager or similar transaction).
  Look for the provider system with the key &2 and check its current IBC reference assignments.
  
  
  
  Reassign or Remove Existing Reference:
  
  If the IBC reference &1 is indeed assigned to another provider system and you need to use it for the current provider system, you will need to either:
  
  Remove the assignment from the existing provider system.
  Choose a different IBC reference that is not currently in use.
  
  
  
  
  
  Review Configuration:
  
  Ensure that your configuration is set up correctly and that there are no unintended duplications.
  If necessary, consult with your SAP Basis or middleware team to ensure that the configuration aligns with your integration requirements.
  
  
  
  Check for System Updates: 
  
  If this issue arose after a system update or migration, verify that all configurations were migrated correctly and that there are no residual issues from the previous setup.
