  SAP Error Message:
  WRF_APC153: Select a material group. Class &1 is typed as &2
  
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when you are trying to assign or use a class in a context where a material group is expected, but the class type does not correspond to a material group. In SAP, classes are categorized by types (e.g., material class, document class, equipment class, etc.). The system expects a class of a specific type (usually material class, type 001), but the class you have entered is of a different type.
  
  &1 = Class name you entered  
  &2 = Class type of the entered class (e.g., 002 for document class, 003 for equipment class, etc.)
  
  For example, if you are in a transaction or process that requires a material class (type 001), but you enter a class of type 002 (document class), the system throws this error.
