Enable/Disable Characteristics value assignment during Configuration in SD

Hi,
I have a sales order which has to be configured using Variant Configuration.
During the configuration process, I want to restrict the value assignment by classes. Meaning I have 2 classes - one for GRP1 and another for GRP2.
During creation of sales order, I give the sales ppl authorization to class for GRP1, which allows them to do characteristics value assignment for all the characteristics in the class called GRP1. The other users are not allowed to change any values assigned in GRP1 but they can view the info in GRP1, these users can only configure whatever characteristics in GRP2.
I tried using authorization object C_TCLS_MNT.
Mentioned in the SU21,
C_TCLS_MNT Authorization for Characteristics of Org. Area object can be used.
Actvt : 23 Maintenance of characteristics for org. area allowed , any other value Display area only characteristics for org.
However, I am unable to assign any other value other than 23. It mentioned that any other value is Display but I am unable to assign the other value.
It seems to be that C_TCLS_MNT is not working. Even when I do not assign C_TCLS_MNT (disable it) but using C_TCLS_BER (with org area), it allows user to do everything (display and change).
Pls help.
Thanks.
Cheers,
Sue

Please assign the value as ' ' (Single space included within single quote) to use "Any other value" option.
The other Objects can be used here are:
C_CLMM          CLAS     Mass Processing of Classifications
C_TCLA_BKA     CLAS     Authorization for Class Types
C_TCLS_BER     CLAS     Authorization for Org. Areas in Classification System
C_TCLS_MNT     CLAS     Authorization for Characteristics of Org. Area
Please check how many of these are present for the TCode you are using in TCode SU24 as Check/Maintain (or Check Indicator = Check & Proposal = Yes : If you are in ECC).
The activity 23 means "maintain"

FM to check Characteristics values assignment

Hi , Experts:
Can tell me which FM should I use to check if a Characteristics value has been assigned to a material?
Thanks for your help
Sanwei

I believe that there is no such FM. You need to build a range for your constant values and then compare your select option with the range build for constants.
Eg.
select-options: s_werks for t001w-werks.
ranges r_werks for t001-werks.
r_werks-sign = 'I'.
r_werks-option = 'EQ'.
r_werks-low = '2101'. "Pass the constant value.
append r_werks. "Range built for one entry 2101. Similarly append further constant values.
*Check if select option contains any of the constant values.
if s_werks in r_werks.
* Select-options contains value as defined in range
else.
* No matching value found.
endif.

Link between characteristics value & Release Strategy

Dear Experts ,
In what tables can I find out the values characteristics value assigned to the release strategies ?

Dear Experts ,
In what tables can I find out the values characteristics value assigned to the release strategies ?
Hi
IN characterstics you have to define the grounds (Documnet type, Currency,AAC..etc) as per table CEBAN/CEEKO. Than you assigned them to Class. You can search the tables if they help you out..

Is there a way to enable/disable a tabular form item based on the value of a second item?

Hi Everyone,
I have a tabular form based on a collection. The column c050(maps to f30) will be either Y/N. If it is Y, then I would like to enable column c024( maps to f24) (which happens to be a radio button based on lov). If the value of c050 = N, then disable c024. There are potentially many rows, and the item c024 would only be enable/disabled for the specific row. So if row 1 has c050=Y and row 2 has C050=N then row 1 c024 is enabled, and row 2 c024 is disabled. Hope that makes sense.
I have created a dynamic action called enable/disable HMS fields.
event=CHANGE
selection type = jquery selector
jquery selector = input[name='f30']
condition EQUAL TO
value Y
true action1 - enable, jquery selector, input[name='f24']
true action 2 - alert, You have added an HMS Species. There may be additional data to enter. thanks
false action1 - disable jquery selector, input[name='f24']
false action2 - alert, no hms worries.
The alerts in both cases show properly...but nothing seems to happen to f24.....what am I doing wrong?
thanks

Agh! This is the first time you mention this is a radio button! That changes things a lot! As you can see, the format is different (f24_0001_0001) than what we have discussed (f24_0001).
Radio buttons have their own quirks. My bad, I should have asked what you had. But since you said your original selectors on input were working I just thought these were text fields or something like that.
How about you change it to a drop down list just so that you can see all work? And fully understand it.
Then you can work out the radio button option.
If that doesn't get you there... I'm going to ask you setup an example in apex.oracle.com and give me credentials to log in and take a look.
I could re-try the js on my side with a radio but it will take some time.
So just to be clear... f30 is a drop down and f24 is a radio?
See, this line:
$x_disableItem("f24_" + row, true);
Is NEVER going to find the radio buttons because it's missing the 3rd 0001 and 0002 (how many options do you have?)
So perhaps you try it like this:
$x_disableItem("f24_" + row + '_0001', true);
$x_disableItem("f24_" + row + '_0002', true);
... keep going for the options...
Do the same for the false of course.
But I think this needs a better approach if you'll have radio buttons. I just need to work it out.
Ok, go try things...
Thanks

Please help regarding the assigning of characteristics value for a batch in transaction code MSC2N or MSC2 in the classification tab.
If Function modules or BAPI is available pls advise the inputs to be provided for the function modules.
Here is one function module which i searched, but if i run this function module, i am not able to commit my characteristics value.
The function module is CIF_BATCHCHAR_MAP.
For the above function module the inputs which i have given are...
Material number
Batch
Plant
Class type
Class Number
Characteristics name
Characteristics value
Expecting your earliest reply.

What value to put in for a preference in the about:config forlder that would allow me to use the f12 key to enable/disable a firefox add-on.

Im trying to set it up so hitting the F12 key will enable/disable Addblock Plus because their are some web sites I need it disabled completely on.
The preference is already there in the about:config screen but the value is left blank for you to fill in if you want to use the feature.
I just need to know what value would represent pressing the F12 Key

'''F12''' is what you need as the string Value for '''extensions.adblockplus.enable_key'''

Automatic comm channel when assigning Business system during configuration

Hi all,
In scenario file to file during Configuration,
During assigning business system there is a check box:
<b> 'Create communication channels automatically' </b>
I am planning to use File adapter on both receiver and sender side..
The question is Do I check this box or not ? If I do check this box it creates for me HTTP adapter ...Do I need it or not? I am clearly only using file adapter
thanks all !
Jon

U cannot use it in ur scenario. This function is supported for the following adapter types:
- XI Adapter
- HTTP Adapter
- IDoc Adapter
- RFC Adapter

Transfer of characteristics values from material variant to its subordinate

Gurus
Need your Expert opinion on Variant configuration
We are using Multi level Material Variants and our bussiness process demands for configuration of These Material variants in Transaction MD81 and during creation of Sales order .These configuration will not affetc the BOM explosion but will only be passed to the The lower level components (Which are again theMulti level Configuriable Material variants ) as manufacturing instructions .To Enable these Flow of Characterisitcs we have Applied a Note which allows the Multi level Configuration of Material Variants and Pass this Values to lower Level and the characteristics value flow is visible as well for lower level from CU50 ,but when i create the requirement through CIR or sales order and Configure the Material Variants and Generate the Procurement Proposals to fullfill these requirements (MD02) in the form of Planned order we are unable to pass one the Characterisitcs values to planned orders of lower level Components of Material Variants .These characterisitc values are Used as Manufacturing Instructions and should be passed on to the Lower level of Material Variants through the use of dependencies in Configuration profile .but the problem is it works in CU50 and does not flow in planned orders , does any body have a solution for this ?
Thanks In Advance
awaiting reply
Milind

Hi Milind,
I check that you implement a Note which allows the Multi level Configuration of Material Variants? is it sap note? mind to share the number.
I ever faced this problems to before but fortunately the case in simpler so i just create another variant and maintain the component for the variant. For example : characteristic color. I create variant with color red black etc. For variant red, maintain component red. For variant black maintain component black, so on. Is it possible for your case?

Error at sales order: Inconsistent characteristic value assignment

Hi SAPians
There is a problem in variant configuration. I have configurable materials at sales order level with BOMs and super BOMs. When I am executing the scenario, not able to process further after selecting characteristic values for a configurable material. The error saying " Inconsistent characteristic value assignment". I checked all the relevant master data, every thing is okay. But I am not able to proceed further. Can any one provide some valuable inputs for this.
Raksha.

Hi
Did u create variant table (CU61) if not plz and try to make it by tick mark of Decision table..
u can check assignmebt consitance thru CU60 ..if there again blank plz maintain it manually..
basically wt happened during creation of Characteristics and assignment of value in value tab .. there is indicator ..which influence assignment consistance..
hope u may get clue.
correct me if i went wrong..
thanks

Characteristics value assignments screen- the results button is not visible

Dear Gurus,
In variant configuration, while i am assignning characteristics values in the characteristics value assignments
screen, the results button is not visible. Even when I try to go to the results option from the Menu (GOTO > Results),
it is disabled.
Can any one tell me why is it so ?

Hi
I have checked my config profile. it looks ok to me.
Can u suggest anything in particular that I need to check.

Where we maintain the cost of characteristics values in variant conf.

Hello guys,
This thread i have posted many times in sdn , but never got the satisfactory answer.This time again i am trying my luck.
    Actually i am unable to understand how costing takes place in variant configuration.
    Suppose i have created one sales order for configurable material and there we select all the characteristics values which we want.
But we don't maintain the prices of these characteristics values anywhere.So when i create the sales order than how the sales people calculate the cost of that order.
    Take a example of computer.For making computer,i want cabinet, processor, Harddisk, Ram, which are available in many sizes.So What we do that we create one configurable material and inside it we maintain all this characteristics and its values.And then i create one sales order for that configurable material and select the suitable characteristics and its values as reqd my customer.
     Now my question is how they cost that sales order?As we don't maintain the Accounting and costing view in material master of configurable material.
   So where to maintain the prices of these characteristics values?
        Plz guide.

Hi
You can make the price of a variant dependent on the characteristic values assigned (Pricing).You can use
variant conditions to define surcharges and discounts for a variant
Variant u2013Pricing steps
Create condition record
create a procedure where you enter the reference from the characteristic
Assign the procedures to either the characteristic values
configure the material in the sales order
The net price for the material is displayed
If a value that triggers a variant condition is selected when configuring a material in a sales order, the price of the material displayed under Net value is automatically increased or reduced.
In addition, the Conditions pushbutton is displayed.
On pressing this pushbutton,
One can see which conditions have
influenced the price.
I tried to list you as much detail as possible. Hope that you will be able to resolve your issue
Thanks

Copy of Batch characteristics value from material master to Batch

Hi Gurus,
I have maintained some values in the characteristics under batch classification in material master and want to copy the values in batch characteristics during batch creation at process order release.
Can any one help me to achieve this in standard way?
Thanks
Sandip

Hi,
Try to understand the batch classification functionality...In batch classification characteristic values changes from batch to batch...Values should not be maintained in the material master...it does not have any meaning...in the material master we need to assign only the batch class with class type 023 in classification view ...no need to assign the values there....Batch classification means characteristics values differs from batch to batch...
Thanks

How to show the Characteristics Values of Batch appear upon Search?

Dear all
We are implementing SAP for Wood Industry.
Facts:
1. There are 3 batches created for the raw material.
2. Each batch has the characteristics of Thickness, Width, Length with characteristics value 24mm, 140mm, 1530mm
3. 1 Production Order has been create to produce raw material (RM) to semifinised goods (SM).
Quetions:
During GI to Produciton Order using MVT 261, when we try to select batches from the Item Detail level, the pop up search windows only show us the existing 3 Batch Numbers available for the RM, it does not show the characteristics value "thickness, Width, length" that describe each batch.
And this has caused serious problem to use during their selection of batch as batch number will only make more sense to them if it is shown together with the characteristics value.
Apart of opening additional screen to show the batch information of each batch, is there any config I need to do to solve this situation?
Mark will be given handsomely.
Thanks.

Hi,
it is possible to use another search help (Tab Strip: Search for batches via classes, when you press F4 in the batch field).
Here you have to enter the class number first.
Then you get a list of all characteristics in this class, and you can narrow your selection, by setting values for specific characteristics.
After that, press F8 (Find in initial class)
You will get a list of batches, assigned to the selected class, and fullfilling your selection criteria.
Now you can display either the characteristics of a single batch, or you can define a layout for the ALV-Table control, with all characteristics, which you want to see in the overview.
Another possibility is, to open up the 'batch information cockpit' (transaction BMBC) in a separate mode. Here you can see the characteristics ( if you define a selection class on tab strip 'Characteristics' ), e.g. in combination with stock information, which might be relevant as well.
Here you can download some screenshots (link wiil be valid for 80 days)

Shared Variable Engine Buffering Enable/Disable

Hello -
I am running into a problem where I am seeing a read of data that seems to be lagging the writing of the data. The reading and writing functions are utilizing the same shared variable - a control to write to it and an indictor to display it somewhere else. The indicator is lagging by one value, ie. scrolling up the value from 1,2,3,4.. will yeild in a display of 0,1,2,3, lagging by one. I am writing/reading to/from a value in a PLC using an OPC server, binding the variables to the control/indicator.
I am assuming it is the buffering which is causing this, but I can not seem to find where the buffering is enabled/disabled.
Has anyone seen this behaviour before? Also, where do you configure the Shared Variable Engine to disable buffering?
Thank you in advance for your help -
John
PS> One other note, Datasocket binding of the control/indicator does not yield any problems.

John,
Buffering is configured in the main window of the shared variable (double click on the shared variable in the project). Also, you will see this behavior if you have the RT FIFO enabled and you're using the variable on a Real Time target.
I would also recommend taking a look at this white paper which covers the workings of the shared variable:

Same Batch Number with different characteristics value

Dear Gurus,
I have the following scenerio:
The finished goods should be maintain in batch with external number and at the time of confirming the finished goods in co11n the client want to capture the finished goods value like length, width and diameter.
So we propose the batch characteristics with class type of 022 for finished good and we maintain the character as length, width and diameter under the batch class 022 and assign the batch class in finished good classification view.
Now the requirement is we want to capture the batch characteristics value length width and diameter with same batch number for multiple confirmation.
Example:
Confirmation      Batch number               batch Class               Length     width     Diameter
1                        1000                              022                              100        50             20
2                        1000                              022                              120        25             10
3                        1000                              022                              150        70             30
Now at present we are trying to capture the batch characteristics with same batch number but our standard system will not allow to maintain the different batch characteristics value under same batch number. If we overrite the batch characteristics in msc2n transaction the last value maintained be copied to all batch number. but we want same batch number with different batch characteristics value.
Please share your idea and try to solve..
Regards,
Vimal

Dear Vimal,
It is not possible to maintain multiple batch characteristics in one batch.
Work around is to create original batches and assign to your production order. During CO11N, generate one batch per confirmation. There is a report in batch information cockpit to link between original batch and batch per confirmation.
