The most common cause of headaches with things that vary over time
(BOMs, pricing, build options) is the effective date(s).
To start with, unless you need it, turn off Force history of BOMs in
Admin -> Manufacturing -> Site config. That option creates a new BOM
every time you make a change, and could be the source of your problem.

Check the BOM list for conflicting dates.
