COM_PRODUCT_BOM015 - Details

• The SAP error message COM_PRODUCT_BOM015 indicates that there is an issue with the Bill of Materials (BOM) in the context of product data management. Specifically, this error occurs when you attempt to upload a BOM for a product that has not yet been uploaded to the OLTP (Online Transaction Processing) system. In other words, the system requires that the product header information must be present before you can create or upload a BOM for that product.
  
  Cause:
  The primary cause of this error is that the product header (which contains essential information about the product) has not been created or uploaded to the OLTP system. The BOM cannot be processed without the corresponding product header.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Product Header Status: Verify if the product header exists in the OLTP system. You can do this by checking the relevant product master data transaction (e.g., MM01 for material master).
