• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /PLMI/GSS_R2B062 - BOM has not been changed since it was last saved ?

  The SAP error message /PLMI/GSS_R2B062 BOM has not been changed since it was last saved typically occurs in the context of working with Bill of Materials (BOM) in the SAP system. This message indicates that the system has detected that the BOM you are trying to save has not been modified since the last time it was saved. Here’s a breakdown of the cause, potential solutions, and related information:
  Cause:
  
  No Changes Made: The most common reason for this error is that you are attempting to save a BOM without making any changes to it. The system recognizes that the current state of the BOM is identical to the last saved version.
  User Action: Sometimes, users may inadvertently try to save a BOM after viewing or navigating through it without making any modifications.
  System Behavior: The system is designed to prevent unnecessary writes to the database, which is why it raises this message.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check for Changes: Before attempting to save the BOM, ensure that you have made actual changes to the BOM. This could include adding, deleting, or modifying components.
  Review the BOM: If you believe you have made changes, double-check the BOM to confirm that the changes are reflected in the system.
  Save Only When Necessary: Only attempt to save the BOM when you have made modifications. If no changes are needed, simply exit the transaction without saving.
  Use the Correct Transaction: Ensure you are using the correct transaction code for the operation you intend to perform (e.g., CS02 for changing BOM).
  Refresh the Screen: If you are working in a session where the BOM was previously loaded, try refreshing the screen or reloading the BOM to ensure you are working with the latest data.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes for BOM management, such as:
  
  CS01: Create BOM
  CS02: Change BOM
  CS03: Display BOM
  
  
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any updates or patches related to BOM processing that might address specific issues or enhancements.
  Documentation: Review SAP documentation or help files related to BOM management for best practices and troubleshooting tips.
  User Training: Ensure that users are trained on how to properly modify and save BOMs to avoid confusion and errors.
