• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EHPRC_CPM_BOMBOS058 - Generated data not saved; BOM transfer started in simulation mode ?

  The SAP error message EHPRC_CPM_BOMBOS058 indicates that a Bill of Materials (BOM) transfer was initiated in simulation mode, which means that the system did not save any generated data. This typically occurs in the context of the SAP Environment, Health, and Safety (EHS) module or the Product Safety module, where BOMs are used to manage product compositions and safety data.
  Cause:
  
  Simulation Mode: The transfer was started in simulation mode, which is intended for testing purposes. In this mode, the system simulates the transfer process without making any actual changes to the database.
  Configuration Settings: The system may be configured to default to simulation mode for certain users or transactions.
  User Action: The user may have explicitly chosen to run the transfer in simulation mode, either by selecting the option in the user interface or by using a specific transaction code that defaults to simulation.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Run in Actual Mode: To save the generated data, you need to run the BOM transfer in actual mode instead of simulation mode. This can typically be done by:
  
  Navigating to the relevant transaction or program.
  Ensuring that the option for simulation mode is unchecked or not selected.
  Executing the transfer again.
  
  
  
  Check User Settings: If the system defaults to simulation mode, check the user settings or roles assigned to ensure that they allow for actual data processing.
  
  
  Review Configuration: If the issue persists, review the configuration settings in the SAP system to ensure that the BOM transfer process is set up correctly and that there are no restrictions preventing the transfer from being executed in actual mode.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the SAP documentation or help resources for specific instructions on how to perform BOM transfers and the implications of simulation mode.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with the relevant transaction codes for BOM management, such as CS01 (Create BOM), CS02 (Change BOM), and CS03 (Display BOM).
  SAP Notes: Check for any SAP Notes related to BOM transfer issues or simulation mode behavior that may provide additional insights or patches.
  User Training: Ensure that users involved in BOM management are trained on the differences between simulation and actual modes to avoid confusion in future processes.
  
  If the problem continues after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP support team or a technical consultant who can provide further assistance based on your specific system configuration and requirements.
