  The SAP error message RMXTAPI082 indicates that there is an issue with a recipe in the SAP system, specifically that the recipe does not contain a primary output or that the primary output is not defined as a material. This error typically occurs in the context of production planning and recipe management within SAP, particularly in the SAP Production Planning (PP) and SAP Recipe Management (RM) modules.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Primary Output: The recipe you are trying to use does not have a primary output defined. In SAP, a primary output is a key product that is produced by the recipe.
  Incorrect Configuration: The primary output may be defined, but it is not set up correctly as a material in the system. This could mean that the material is not created or activated in the system.
  Recipe Configuration Issues: There may be issues with how the recipe is configured, such as missing links to the material master or incorrect settings in the recipe itself.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Recipe Configuration:
  
  Go to the recipe in question and verify that a primary output is defined. You can do this by navigating to the recipe management transaction (e.g., C201 or C202).
  Ensure that the primary output is correctly linked to a material that exists in the material master.
  
  
  
  Define Primary Output:
  
  If the primary output is missing, you need to define it. In the recipe, specify the primary output material that should be produced.
  
  
  
  Verify Material Master:
  
  Check the material master for the primary output. Ensure that the material is created and activated in the system. You can do this using transaction code MM03 to view the material details.
  Ensure that the material type is appropriate for the output you are trying to produce.
  
  
  
  Check for Errors in Recipe:
  
  Review the recipe for any other errors or inconsistencies that might be causing the issue. This includes checking for missing components or incorrect settings.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for more detailed guidance on recipe management and troubleshooting.
