  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/OM_ERROR2262 indicates that there is an issue with an order in the long-term planning (LTP) matrix. Specifically, it means that the order's Bill of Materials (BOM) has been deleted, which is causing a conflict in the planning process.
  Cause:
  
  Deleted BOM: The primary cause of this error is that the BOM associated with the order has been deleted from the system. This can happen if the BOM was removed or if there was a change in the material master data that affected the BOM.
  Data Inconsistency: There may be inconsistencies in the data between the order and the BOM, especially if changes were made after the order was created.
  Long-Term Planning Settings: The settings or configurations in the long-term planning module may not be aligned with the current state of the BOM.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check BOM Status: Verify if the BOM for the material in question still exists. You can do this by navigating to the BOM transaction (CS03) and checking if the BOM is available for the relevant material and plant.
  Recreate or Restore BOM: If the BOM has been deleted and is required for the order, you may need to recreate it or restore it from a backup if available.
  Adjust Order: If the BOM is no longer needed, you may need to adjust or delete the order that is causing the error. This can be done through the order management transactions.
  Review LTP Settings: Check the long-term planning settings to ensure that they are correctly configured and that there are no discrepancies that could lead to this error.
  Run Consistency Checks: Use SAP tools to run consistency checks on the planning data to identify and resolve any inconsistencies.
