What causes this issue?

In
<DS:GLOS.3526B726AFAB52B9E10000009B38F974>costing variant</> &V1&, it
was defined that the lot size of the highest material should be
<DS:DE.CK_LOSDR>passed on</>. However, the system found a recursive
structure when exploding the BOM. One of the materials belonging to
this recursion is material &V2& or material &V3& in plant &V4&.

System Response

The system can no longer determine the costing lot sizes dynamically,
and takes them from the costing view in the material master instead.

CK825 - Details

• The SAP error message CK825, "Recursion recognized: Lot size cannot be passed on," typically occurs in the context of product costing and material management. This error indicates that there is a recursive situation in the costing process, where the system is unable to determine the lot size for a material due to circular references or incorrect configuration.
  Causes:
  
  
  Circular References: The error often arises when there are circular dependencies in the material master data or in the costing variant settings. For example, if a material's lot size is dependent on another material's lot size, which in turn depends back on the first material, it creates a loop.
  
  
  Incorrect Lot Size Configuration: If the lot size settings in the material master or in the costing variant are not configured correctly, it can lead to this error. This includes settings in the material type, valuation class, or other related configurations.
