• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message BOM332 - Error during delete: of &1 records, &2 records were updated ?

  The SAP error message BOM332 typically occurs when there is an issue while trying to delete a Bill of Materials (BOM) record. The message indicates that while attempting to delete a certain number of records (&1), some records (&2) were updated instead of being deleted. This can happen due to various reasons, including dependencies, authorizations, or data integrity issues.
  Causes:
  
  
  Dependencies: The BOM you are trying to delete may be linked to other objects (like production orders, purchase orders, etc.). If there are dependent objects that reference the BOM, the system may prevent deletion to maintain data integrity.
  
  
  Authorizations: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to delete certain BOM records, leading to an update instead of a deletion.
  
  
  Data Integrity Issues: There may be inconsistencies or issues in the data that prevent the deletion of the BOM records.
  
  
  Status of BOM: The BOM might be in a status that does not allow deletion
