Summary :
This SAP Note addresses issues in creating, displaying, or deleting a Bill of Materials (BOM) due to existing data entries that have only been logically deleted, not physically. Users facing errors like 'Variant BOM already exists' or 'BOM not valid' when manipulating BOMs with/without change numbers should refer to this document. The note outlines the use of two reports designed to clear these logically deleted BOM entries. Report 1 is suited for deleting whole BOMs, variants, or alternatives, whereas Report 2 is recommended for removing individual alternatives or variants from multi-alternative/variant BOMs. Permissions and exact parameters for running these reports, considering the BOM category and relevant SAP tables (like MAST, DOST), are detailed to ensure proper execution.
