• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VMP_MSG175 - Planned panel already has MBOM and will be reused ?

  The SAP error message VMP_MSG175 indicates that a planned panel (which is typically a part of a manufacturing process) already has a Manufacturing Bill of Materials (MBOM) associated with it, and therefore, it will be reused instead of creating a new one. This message is part of the SAP Variant Configuration (VC) and is related to the management of product structures in manufacturing.
  
  Cause:
  The error occurs when you attempt to create or modify a planned panel in the system, but the system detects that there is already an existing MBOM linked to that panel. This is a safeguard to prevent duplication of data and ensure that the correct manufacturing processes are followed.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Existing MBOM: Verify if the planned panel already has an MBOM assigned. You can do this by navigating to the relevant transaction in SAP (e.g., CS03 for displaying BOMs) and
