  It is recommended that users familiarize themselves with SAP's documentation on alternative BOM determination before using this transaction code, as it can be complex to use and understand at first. Additionally, users should ensure that they have sufficient authorization before attempting to set up new BOMs or change existing ones, as this requires special permissions in SAP.
