  The SAP error message /ACCGO/MCK_MAINT086 related to the "Start of BOM determination" typically occurs in the context of the SAP S/4HANA system, particularly when dealing with the Material Costing (MCK) functionality. This error can arise during the process of determining the Bill of Materials (BOM) for a material, which is essential for cost calculations and production planning.
  Cause:
  The error can be caused by several factors, including:
  
  Missing BOM: The system cannot find a valid BOM for the material in the specified plant or for the specified usage.
  Incorrect Configuration: There may be issues with the configuration of the BOM determination process, such as missing settings in the configuration tables.
  Material Master Data Issues: The material master data may not be set up correctly, leading to issues in BOM determination.
  Plant-Specific Settings: The BOM may not be assigned to the correct plant or may not be valid for the specific plant.
  Versioning Issues: The BOM version may not be active or may not match the requirements for the costing run.
  
  Solution:
