  The SAP error message EAM_WF154, which states "Clear Deletion flag of BOM &1 &2 &3 in background," typically occurs in the context of Bill of Materials (BOM) processing within the SAP system. This error indicates that there is a BOM that has been flagged for deletion, and the system is unable to process it in the background due to this flag.
  Cause:
  
  Deletion Flag Set: The BOM in question has been marked for deletion, which prevents certain operations from being performed on it.
  Background Processing: The operation you are trying to perform (like a workflow or a batch job) requires the BOM to be active and not flagged for deletion.
  Data Integrity: The system enforces data integrity rules, which means that it will not allow operations on BOMs that are marked for deletion.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Clear the Deletion Flag:
  
  You need to manually clear the deletion flag for the BOM. This can typically be done using transaction codes such as CS02 (Change BOM) or CS03 (Display BOM).
  Navigate to the BOM in question and look for the deletion flag option. Uncheck or clear the flag and save your changes.
  
  
  
  Check BOM Status:
  
  Ensure that the BOM is in a valid status for processing. If it is not needed anymore, consider whether it should be permanently deleted instead of just clearing the deletion flag.
  
  
  
  Run the Process Again:
  
  After clearing the deletion flag, re-run the background process that triggered the error.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
