Summary :
When modifying the material of a purchase order item via Transaction ME21N or ME22N, an existing bug prevents the re-triggering of a Bill of Materials (BOM) explosion for items tied to subcontract orders. This results in components remaining as initially determined, either manually or through previous actions. To correct this error, proactively apply the recommended program corrections. Additionally, facilitate a warning mechanism through Transaction SE91, enabling the message ME638 with the description 'Bill of Material was re-exploded,' ensuring this operational change is clearly communicated when changes to the material number initiate a new BOM explosion.
