Remove incomplete BOM components

What causes this issue?

When creating a material document, the structure of a bill of material
is found to be incomplete. When editing the different components of a
BOM, some, but not all, components are removed from the user with the
help of the functions <LS>Cancel</> or <LS>Back</>.

System Response

How to fix this error?

Clean up incompletely edited BOM components.
Use the <LS>Back</> function to return to the item editing process. You
can remove surplus items manually by resetting the entry quantity to
zero. You can access the maintenance of the entry quantity via the
detailed view, where you can double-click on the particular overview
item. If you are unable to change the <LS>entry quantity</> field in
the detailed view, you can use the function of the previously displayed
query <ZH>editing incomplete BOMs</>, whereby the entry quantities of
the surplus components are automatically reset.
BOMs that are edited in this way, are not transferred into the current
material document and are accessible for processing goods receipts in
the future.
