Configured material(Material Variants) with VC multi-level configuration

Hi experts,
I have a question about VC, VC can be a multi-level configuration, and it can be configuration level by level in sales order, this configurable material replace by a configured material(Material Variants ) . however I can only config the first level in Material Variants(MM02 MRP3; the configrable material is a multi-level)! how to solve it?
If we can not multi level config the VC materil in the configured material, how can it replace the configurable material in sales order?
Thanks

Hi Lance,
You can do straight away also without user exit .
There is feature called Variant Matching in Variant configuration. If you can go throgh this and do the step by step configuration and in configuration profile setting you have to set Variant matching Indicator , then Make the Exclusion characterstics ,
With all the steps , Once the Configurable material is configured in Sales order if it finds the variant matched with the existing variant in the system , then Config Material will be replaced by Material Variant as a line item in the sales order.
Thanks

How to create a multi-level configuration sales order?

Hi,
    My client use configurable material to sell computers. And the production mode is MTO. One sales order item correspond with a production order
    Now my client also sell array which consist of two computers, two storage, one UPS power etc. That means I must realize multi-level configuration. First, choose the computer type. Second, based on the choosed computer in first step, choose the cpu, disk and so on. And then based on the sales order item, there must be several production order related to the same sales order item.
    Now I have semi-finished product B1,B2--computer. Class type is 300. Many characteristics is allocated to the class. B type material has the BOM which consist of cpu,disk etc.
    Then I created the finished product A--array. Class type is 300. Allocated characteristics is the B1,B2. A has the BOM which consist of B1,B2 etc.
    When I create sales order, I can only config the first level,choose computers for A, can not choose cpu,disk for computers.
    So, how can I find a solution for this scenario?
    Thanks in advance.

Thanks, Waza
1. Does the Sales order BOM explode in the sales order?
No. Just one top item would be ok for my client.
2. Why do thy want this in the sales order? They can explode the BOM in the production order, do they then need pricing at the component level?
They do not need pricing at the component level. Exploding the BOM in the production order is acceptable. But how can I config the configurable material in components of production order?
I tried collective order, but the second level of configurable material can not generate production order. I just make use of special procurement 52 in MRP2 of top finished product. Is there something I missed?
Thanks again.

The disk configuration is not insync with the in-memory configuration. Software RAID 1 reactivation

In trying to reactivate disk 3 of a raid mirror failed redundancy I get the error - The disk configurationis not insyncwith the in-memory configuration. The drive is accessible but I have no idea which of drive 2 and 3 are in use, drive 2 has unspecified
errors but there is the option to reactivate disk 3.
Does anyone have any idea what this means?
I am running on a HP Proliant ML350 G5 with Windows Server 2012
Thanks

Hi,
Since the Disk 2's status is Errors, we could not reactivate disk 3. Please try to reactivate disk 2 to check the results.
If the disk does not return to the Online status and the volume does not return to the Healthy status, there may be something wrong with the disk. You should replace the failed mirror disk region.
For more detailed information, please refer to the article below:

Consuming Material Having Variant Configuration

HI
We are using Variant Configuration for our semi finished product and its
batch managed.There are two plants in one plant say A and B. In A plant
we are using Variant configuration.The same material is stock transferred
to plant B and is further processed.
We are creating CIR in plant B. After taking MRP run we are converting
planned order to purchase requisition and subsequently Stock transfer
purchase order on Plant A. When the material is produced in plant A,it is
transferred to plant B on stock transfer order mentioned above. But the
material is against CIR in plant B. We remove the material from CIR
through 411E movement and system keep it as free stock in unrestricted.
Now when i am consuming this material for further processing in
production order of Material getting manufactured system is asking me for
Variant Characteristics.
System should not ask me variant characteristics once it has been removed
from CIR i.e. special stock.
Any Work around avilable.
Regards,
Anand.

Hi Anand,
Finally, I could understand your issue from your CSS message.
In your description, AA is configurable material in both plant A and plant B, BB is not a configurable material in plant B, AA is a component of material BB, so when you produce BB, there will be dependent requirement generated for AA from BB, now you want to use the stock of AA to fullfill the dependent requirement, however, the system will require you to enter the characteristic at that time.
Then where is the stock of AA comes from? I have mentioned this in my previous reply. But as I have mentioned it is not correct to have unristricted stock for the configurable material, therefore, your process to have free stock of AA is not correct.
Another point is that, your process to have configurable material as a component of a non-configurable material is also not proper.
For example, material BB is a Car, material AA is the Door of the Car, your Car is not configurable, but the Door is configurable, you may have green door and red door according to the configuration, but as your car is a firmed material then what's the meaning to have different door, if you want to have different door, then that means you also need to have different color of the car, like green door for green car, red door for red car, then that means your car should be also a configurable material to make you can select the color of the car too.
Or if your Car is a firmed material as green car, then do you think there is any meaning to configure the door of the car? Unless you do want a red door for a green car, but this can also be realized with a configurable car.
So normally, like your situation, you should use multi-level configuration structure to do the production in make to order scenario.
Therefore, still the problem has been described in my previous reply, no matter how you get the stock of AA, the AA is produced with the configured configuration module, so the stock of AA is also with the configuration data, then no matter how you want to consume the stock of AA, system will always ask for the characteristic of the requirement to compare it with the stock configuration to see if they are same.
For example, you are producing your Car, but as far as I can see you should have no place to configure the door in production order, therefore when you try to consume the door, the system will of course need to know which color you want, because if you want red door but there is only stock of green door, then how the system should do in your opinion?
Then finially, the best way of solving your issue is to have material variant for the configurable material, like the door, you may have material variant as green door and red door, if your firmed Car is green car, then you can use green door as the firmed component, if your firmed Car is red car, then you can use red door as the firmed component, also when you do the production, you could simply produce the green door directly without configure the door, because the material variant is a stockable item but the configurable material is not, then your scenario would be very simple and there will no such problem any more.
If you do still want to keep your scenario, but don't want the system requires you enter the charateristics, then you may have to do the modification of the goods movement transaction to disable that, but it may lead to the inconsistency situation, like actually you want red door, but what you have in stock is green door, without that, you may consume the green door stock for the red door requirement, then it will mess up all the following process.
Also as you are doing the goods movement in MM transaction, so if there is user-exit could be used to change this behavior is decided by MM function, however, base on my checking there will be no such user-exit to control this behavior at MM side, because the consequnce is really dangerous for the system operation.
Therefore, I think the best way for you is still adjust your production scenario to make your production standard, then SAP system will accept that standard production scenario under your requirement.
Thanks and regards,
Rachel

Can I configure a 79xx Phone with two busy trigger using UCCE 8.5?

Hi, my name is Eric and I've some doubts to configure my Phones. First of all, I will explain my environment below:
- UCCE 8.5
- CM 8.5
- CVP 8.0
I would like to know if it's supported if I configure a 79xx Phone with 2 busy triggers configuration, because the customer would like to the agent's phone receive two calls per line.
Thank you very much.

Eric,
No, this is not supported and stated as such in cisco docs.
Customer will need to designate separate DN for ACD calls and separate DN for DID/personal calls.
HTH,
Chris

Configuring Airport Extreme by replacing and old router configuration?

I have seen now a You Tube video explaining the possibility to install Airport Extreme and configuring it by replacing with an old router configuration. This will be my case because I have now a 3Com wireless router but Im waiting for a new Airport Extreme. What I would like to know is how to do that and what connections needed. If I understand well the explanations from YouTube, Airport Extreme must be connected to the internet through the ADSL modem but at the same time the old router must be turned on. It this correct?

What manual is that? Is it one that is available on Apple's website? I'm going to do a search for it.
You won't believe what happened. I just came up to check my email, and the Airport Utility just opened by itself and said it had found my AXn (which it had before also when I tried to configure it like you said to do). I went through the screens again and clicked Update yet again (like I had before) and instead of blinking yellow, the **** thing is solid green. I think I have a ghost in my house!!!
Well, thank you for all of your help! Do you have any insight into my other question about the AEBSn giving out a solid signal to my MBP, but when I click on Safari, it says that I'm not connected to the internet? I'm wondering if when I was setting up the AEBSn, the internet connection went to my computer instead of the AEBSn. I know I'm not describing this right, but it's like when I got my new iMac and tried to plug in the ethernet from the cable modem, it wouldn't recognize my iMac, but if I plugged it into my MBP it would. I had to reset the cable modem and then plug it in. The signal must have bypassed the AEBSn at some point and gone straight to my iMac (it's hardwired via ethernet cord from back of the AEBSn). It was broadcasting the internet signal at one point after my wife got it set up the first time because I was able to surf wirelessly on my MBP in the basement.

Variant configuration for material in sap B1

Hi,
Please explain how item variants can be configured in SAP B1 against materials like SAP R3.
Noramlly all the attributes of amaterial cannot be incorporated in material code which are to be filled at the time of transaction in sale order. Every material is associated with a class which constitutes some characteristics . Those characteristics contain some pre defined value in variant.
Please explain if there is any scope of it in SAP B1.
Regards
Indranil

Hi
There is huge gap is there between R3 and SBO. u cant expect same thing in SBO which in R3.
Basic things SBO is gud for lite manfg company, traders. if u r looking for heavy manfg company then u have to look for addons r SDk with SBO.
Basically in SBo u can segrregrate the items by one item group only, & using some properties & udfs u can make subgroups.
Pls check this thread Slightly same kind of req.:

Variant Configuration training material

Dear All,
If any body is having step by step training material of Variant Configuration in SAP with screen shots starting from material creation to sales order creation then plz share to me.
<< Moderator message - Please do not offer points And do not ask for links. You can find these yourself. >>
Plz share any kind of material of Variant Configuration.
Thanks in advance
Edited by: Rob Burbank on Dec 1, 2010 4:13 PM

Hi,
General Steps:
1: Creat configurable material with Material is configurable indicator active (or use KMAT mat.type)
2: Maintain all related fields in MRP and Sales views for configurable material.
3: Creat Super BOM/ Super Routing.
4: Creat charecteristics, values as required and assign charecterisitcs in a class of class type 300 created. (class type 200
    can also be used with some changes)
5: Assign class created in the classification view of the configurable material in material master. You can define mulitiple
    classes.
6: Maintain object dependencies in super BOM and super Routing, if required in charecteristics also you can maintaine ODs.
    (use of different ODs such as pre conditions, selection conditions, procedures and contraints depending on scenario)
7: Maintain Configuration profile for configurable material with all necessary fields.
8: Now VC is ready for use. Create Sales order system will popup a window to select different options.
9: Save sale order, convert sales order to production order and proceed with normal production execution steps.

Multi level follow up material in BOM

Dear All,
Our client have a requirement for multi lvel follow up material in BOM.
for example
BOM for Finish Good made of A.
if material A is depleted then used material B
if material B is depleted then used material C
if A and B have stock used A(higher priority)
I tried to used follow up material in MRP4 and BOM but it can not be used for multi level like this case.
Is there any solution for this?
Best regards,
Fred

Hi anyway I tested the BOM master data like this
F/G 1 Master Box
|--- A 10 PCS Alt Group Z1 Priority 1 Usage 100% Strategy 2 (100% Check)
|--- B 10 PCS Alt Group Z1 Priority 2 Usage 100% Strategy 2 (100% Check)
|--- C 10 PCS Alt Group Z1 Priority 3 Usage 100% Strategy 2 (100% Check)
Stock A is depleted
Stock B enough
stock C enough
Expected result F/G only used B 10 PCS
Actual result is
F/G 1 Master Box
|-- A 10 PCS
|-- B 10 PCS
|-- C 10 PCS
Do ou have ides how should the percentage in BOm is maintain?
Best regards,
Fred

How to create configuration of a variant material based on funciton module

Hello, ABAP experts,
I want to create configuration of a variant material based on FM ( MRP3 view, set configurable material and configure the variant ).
I use fuction modules:
CUXM_SET_CONFIGURATION
CUCB_CONFIGURATION_TO_DB
and subsequently commit work.
But the data table was not updated, that is, MRP3 view is still empty.
Can you give me a sample, tell me how to used these FMs.
Thanks and BR.

When I call FM , CUXM_GET_CONFIGURATION, the SUBRC = 0, but ET_RETURN get two messages: CUXM1-001 , Overwriting existing configuration, and CUXM1-007, Configuration in target system is consistent and complete.
Can you give me a sample ?

Material cost estimate with Quantiy structure

Hello All,
Can anyone please help in the following problem. When we do material cost estimate with quantiy structure, system is throwing message as "source of supply cannot be determined".
Maximum points will be assigned to the suitable answer.
Thanks in advance.
Srinivas

Hi, Srini,
Please check in material master data whether this material is in-house produced or externally procured, which can be found in MRP view.
Please also check your costing variant and valuation variant for material cost estination, I think possibly you chose stratey L FROM Purchasing Info Record. If not, ignor it.
If it's externally procured, SAP logic is that firstly it will check the source list, then determine the quota arrangement and find proper vendor for the selected material. The error message is possibly caused by missing vendor or wrong quota reason. So please follow the SAP logic to check data one by one.
Please check the following link on vendor determination in online help document.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005vp/helpdata/en/7e/cb938143a311d189ee0000e81ddfac/frameset.htm
Please specify if you also used mixed costing for material.
Good luck!

Material Ledger Functionality with Non Valuated Sales Order Stock

We are in the process of setting up Make To Order (MTO) with Non Valuated Sales Order Stock. We currently use the Material Ledger in our other businesses that use Process Orders.
Does the Material Ledger functionality support MTO with Non Valuated Sales Order Stock? I have been testing this and have not yet figured out how to get ML postings. We are using production orders that settle to sales orders. We do not bring this into inventory, the costs reside on the sales order.
If this functionality does exist, I would assume I need to configure the Material Update Structure but I cannot find any documentation on this.
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards,
Greg

Hi Greg,
no, material ledger will not be able to calculate and allocate actual costs for the sales order in the scenario you describe. It would of course, if you used the valuated sales order stock.
Generally SAP sees in the valuated sales order stocks (avaliable since 3,1 or something) a great improvement and no real reason to use still the non-valuated scenario.
best regards,
Udo

App Model with Multi-Level Subdomains

Hello,
I understand that subdomains should not be used when setting up the App model to prevent unauthorized access of cookies, etc. Does this also apply to multi-level subdomains?
Our SharePoint looks like the following:
WebApp1.SharePoint.MyCompany.com
MySites.SharePoint.MyCompany.com
So, in essence our root domain is "SharePoint.MyCompany.com". Everything we build is a subdomain to that.
Would it be safe and in accordance with best practice, then, to do:
Apps.SharePointApps.MyCompany.com
That is a URL that is separate from the SharePoint subdomains, even though it is itself a subdomain of MyCompany.com. The TechNet guidance states: "For example, if the SharePoint sites are at Contoso.com, do not use Apps.Contoso.com. Instead use a unique
name such as Contoso-Apps.com."
Our SharePoint sites are at xxxxx.SharePoint.MyCompany.com, so is xxxxx.SharePointApps.MyCompany.com sufficient; or, do we still need to do the equivalent of xxxxx.MyCompanyApps.com?
Thank you,
Joseph Irvine

Hi,
I suggest you create a new top level domain name to end up with app URLs like [app].company-apps.com.
