I want to handle recipes on the HMI, but I want to load a recipe from the PLC. The customer sends a recipe number to the PLC and based on this number I want to load a recipe entered om the HMI
How can I load a recipe from an event in the PLC?

Well, logically you always have to map your PLC id somehow to the WebIQ recipe id. There's no easier way as WebIQ recipe management has not been designed to trigger a local recipe in the HMI from the PLC (which in essence can't really know the recipe because it's stored in a remote system).
Let me ask differently: why are you trying to apply a specific recipe in WebIQ from the PLC when you don't have any way to check from the PLC whether such a recipe exists in the HMI?
