  The SAP error message /PLMB/BA_RCP155 Recipe is included in synchronization unit for BOM typically occurs in the context of SAP PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) when there is an issue related to the synchronization of recipes and Bills of Materials (BOMs). This error indicates that the recipe you are trying to work with is part of a synchronization unit that is linked to a BOM, and therefore, certain operations cannot be performed until the synchronization issues are resolved.
  Cause:
  
  Recipe and BOM Linkage: The recipe is associated with a BOM that is currently being synchronized or is in a state that does not allow changes.
  Active Synchronization Unit: The synchronization unit that includes the recipe is active, which prevents modifications to the recipe or BOM.
  Data Integrity Constraints: SAP PLM enforces data integrity rules that prevent changes to recipes that are part of a BOM synchronization unit to ensure consistency.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Synchronization Status: Verify the status of the synchronization unit. If it is currently active, you may need to wait until the synchronization process is complete.
  Release or Deactivate Synchronization: If you have the necessary permissions, consider releasing or deactivating the synchronization unit. This will allow you to make changes to the recipe or BOM.
  Review Dependencies: Check for any dependencies or links between the recipe and BOM. Ensure that there are no other processes or transactions that are currently using the recipe.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific instructions on handling synchronization units and recipes.
  Contact SAP Support: If the issue persists, consider reaching out to SAP support for assistance, especially if you suspect a system error or bug.
