This error indicates that there is an attempt to create or modify relationships between recipes that belong to different recipe groups, which is not allowed in the system.
  Cause:

  You can do this by navigating to the recipe details in the SAP GUI and checking the group assignment.
  
  
  
  Modify Recipe Group: If necessary, consider changing the recipe group of one of the recipes so that both recipes belong to the same group. This may involve reclassifying the recipe, which should be done with caution and in accordance with your organization's processes.
  
  
  Review Relationships: If you are trying to create a relationship that is not valid, reassess the relationships you are attempting to establish. Ensure that they make sense from a business perspective.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for more detailed information on recipe management and the rules governing relationships between recipes.
