- Multiple BOM / variant BOMs already exist ?The SAP error message 29682, which states "Multiple BOM / variant BOMs already exist," typically occurs when you are trying to create or modify a Bill of Materials (BOM) in SAP, and the system detects that there are already multiple BOMs or variant BOMs defined for the same material and plant combination. This can lead to confusion in production planning and inventory management, as the system cannot determine which BOM to use. Causes: Duplicate BOM Entries: There are multiple BOMs defined for the same material and plant, which can happen due to data entry errors or incorrect configuration. Variant BOMs: If you are working with variant BOMs, there may be multiple variants defined for the same base material. Incorrect Configuration: The configuration settings in the BOM management may not be set up correctly, leading to conflicts. Solutions: Check Existing BOMs: Use transaction codes like CS03 (Display BOM) or CS02 (Change BOM) to check for existing BOMs
