What is Recipe in sap pp?

Description of the requirements that must be met in a specific manufacturing process (compare Recipe according to ISA, standard S88).

A recipe comprises the material, substance, process, and resource data of a manufacturing process. Depending on the application area, the type of data ranges from a general description of the requirements to concrete procedural instructions for a specific production plant. However, recipes are always independent of the dates of an order and contain no equipment control functions.
