Component requirements are missing if there is no network activity with

BOM transfer (transaction <AB>CN33_N</>) creates a component requirement
(reservation) if it finds a network activity with the same reference
point or if the component requirement was manually assigned to a network
activity.

How to fix this error?

Create a network activity if needed (with the BOM item?s reference
point) and perform BOM transfer (transaction <AB>CN33_N)</>. If the BOM
item and/or network activity do not have reference points, assign a
