Cause: The error arises when you attempt to copy a BOM or routing where the components and operations are not aligned correctly. Specifically, it means that you are trying to copy either the components or the operations independently, which is not allowed.

Use the Correct Transaction: Ensure you are using the appropriate transaction code for copying BOMs or routings. For example: For BOM: Use CS01 (Create BOM) or CS02 (Change BOM). For Routing: Use CA01 (Create Routing) or CA02 (Change Routing). Review the Source BOM/Routing: Check the source
