RMSRCP250 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: RMSRCP - RMS-RCP: Messages for IPPE Object RCP

• Message number: 250

• Message text: Recipe &1 already exists in the target system

What causes this issue?

When recipes are distributed, the recipe is to be created in the target
system. This is controlled by the update indicator (I = insert) in the
transfer structure. The recipe already exists in the target system. For
this reason, the data is not transferred from the transfer structure.

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

Since the recipe already exists in the target system, you can only
perform the distribution in update mode.
To do so, you only need to change the value of the update indicator in
the structure of the general recipe to "U" (= update). You do not need
to set the update indicator in the lower-level structures.
