  SAP Error Message:
  WES_OUTBOUND054 – Enter a logon/server group for parallel processing
  
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when you are trying to execute an outbound process (such as IDoc processing or ALE distribution) in parallel mode, but the system does not have a logon group or server group specified for parallel processing. The system requires a logon group/server group to distribute the workload across multiple application servers for parallel processing.
  In other words, the system expects you to specify a logon group or server group to enable parallel processing, but this information is missing or not maintained.
  
  Explanation:
  
  Parallel processing in SAP allows distributing tasks (like IDoc processing) across multiple application servers to improve performance and throughput.
  To enable this, you must define logon groups or server groups in the system.
  When executing outbound processing in parallel, the system needs to know which group of servers to use.
  If this is not specified, the system throws the WES_OUTBOUND054 error.
  
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Maintain Logon
