• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /PF1/MSG_EH_CUST082 - Reaction Type can not be equal to End Reaction ?

  The SAP error message /PF1/MSG_EH_CUST082 indicates that there is a configuration issue related to the reaction types in the SAP system, specifically in the context of the Event Handling (EH) module. The error states that the "Reaction Type cannot be equal to End Reaction," which typically means that the system is trying to assign a reaction type that is not valid in the current context.
  Cause:
  
  Incorrect Configuration: The reaction type being assigned is set to "End Reaction," which is not allowed in the current scenario. This could be due to a misconfiguration in the event handling settings.
  Business Logic Violation: The business process may dictate that certain reaction types cannot be used in conjunction with others, particularly if they are meant to signify the end of a process.

  Consult Documentation: Refer to the SAP documentation or configuration guides related to Event Handling to understand the valid reaction types and their appropriate contexts.
