What causes this issue?

You are assigning a BOM from one plant to another plant. The
segmentation strategies for these plants are different or the
segmentation is not fixed for one of the plants.
Example:
You have created a BOM for PLANT_001. For PLANT_001, the segmentation is
fixed or segmentation strategy is already defined. As the segmentation
is not fixed for PLANT_002 or the segmentation strategy of PLANT_002 is
different from that of PLANT_001<(>,<)> you cannot assign the BOM to
PLANT_002.
