  The SAP error message BOM325, which states "Update KDST," typically relates to issues with the Bill of Materials (BOM) and the corresponding data in the KDST table (which is used for storing BOM data in SAP). This error can occur during various operations, such as creating, changing, or deleting BOMs.
  Causes:
  
  Data Inconsistency: There may be inconsistencies in the BOM data that prevent the system from updating the KDST table.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to perform the update.

  Solutions:
  
  Check Data Consistency: Use transaction codes like CS02 (Change BOM) or CS03 (Display BOM) to check for inconsistencies in the BOM data.
  Review Authorizations: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to update BOMs. This can be checked in transaction SU53 or by consulting with your SAP security team.
