MIRO with Aggregation: configurable material

Hi,
We have Created PO for a configurable material where we specified the char. values for variant
at the time of the MIGO we specified the char. values in Batch classification.
Now while doing MIRO we selected the layout Aggregation: configurable material
System is is showing 4 fields char 1 char 2 char 3 char 4 but all values are blank
Why not system is picking the values ???
Thanks in advance

hello anant,
In my opinion for sure standard sap report cannot display the stock for a individual configuration.(Variant)
Reason:characteristics display/hide function is very dynamic dependeding on the dependency and interdependency.
The only option is by a report CL30N plus abap. Since we cannot keep anything in stock for a configurable material. You need to identify all open sales order and stock position OR through material movements and then find the produciton order and then read all char. values.
I assume you are not taking about variant materials.

BAPI/FM in ECC to create a sales order with variant configurable material

Hi all,
I need to create a function module that creates a sales order in ECC with a variant configurable material.
can some one tell me if there is a in built function module or BAPI that i can make use of to create a sales order with variant configurable material in ECC.

Thanks MxG,
I dont know how to use this BAPI. .Can you suggest me a sample code.
My reqmnt is, i have
Sold to party, ship to party, bill to party , VC config material and all char values that should be populated while creating a sales order.

Process order with variant configuration material

Hi,
I create a process order for a material XX.
This material has a BOM with a material that has variant configuration "class type 300" for price configuration.
When I save the process order I get a message saying "There are still characteristics for components to evaluate". I dont want to evaluate this material in my process order.
What can I do to not have this message?
Regards.

Hi all,
Yes, I work with variant configuration. But sales orders are not involved.
What I do is:
1) I create a purchase order for material X (this material belongs to a BOM), this material has variant configuration. I give a value to the characteristics in the PO.
2) I create a process for a material XXX that has a BOM (material X is in the BOM and cannot be removed).
3) When I save the process order the system asks me to evaluate again the characteristics. This is what I dont want it to do.
Any ideas?
Regards.

Production Order BOM with Variant Configurable Material

Hi,
I have a requirement to process the document items in the Production Order BOM for a variant configurable martial. I am not sure which Function Module will do this purpose. I checked the FM: CS_BOM_EXPL_MAT_V2 and does not seem to be working.
Can you please help me with a suitable Function Module or program that will process the Production Order BOM? Appreciate Your Help.
Thanks,
Kanan
Edited by: Kannan SA on Jul 6, 2011 8:59 PM

What are you doing with the characteristics right now ?
If you want operations selected based on characteristic values, you need to have dependencies written just like you do (or in your case, will do) in your BOM components.
I understand the business-push to not do things 100% at the start and just "oh we'll add that part later" but I would really push back to get that part included initially.

Regarding Validation on Charactersticites of given Configurable Material.

Hi All,
I am working on BDC in whcih I am getting the charactersticites of the configurable materials in Flat File. Now the Problem I am facing is that when a particular characterstic is not associated with that configurable material the program is not updating any of the charactersticites associated with that configurable material.
How can we check the validity of the given charactersticites for that configurable material ? Or is there any other logic how I can update the charactersticites for that configurable material.
Points would be rewarded....
Thanks in Advance.

Posting MIRO with reference to MIGO document number

Hi,
Is there any way of posting a vendor invoice in MIRO, taking MIGO document number as the reference instead of PO or Delivery Note reference?
Muru

Hi,
In MIGO you mention the delivery note in the header part.
There is a drop down in MIRO transaction where we enter PO number, please check and you will find the "Delivery Note" option in the drop down list.
you can do the MIRO with reference to this Delivery Note number from this option.
(Just make sure, that you have selected the "GR based IR" indicator in the PO line item.)
Doiong MIRO with reference to material document number of MIGO is not possible in standatd SAP.

BAPI/ FM in CRM to create a sales order with variant configurble material

Hi All,
I need to create a sales order using variant configurable material in CRM not manually through GUI. I need to develop a function module that will create sales order using variant configurable material in CRM .
Can some one tell me if there is an in-built BAPI/Function Module availabe in CRM to create sales order using variant configurable material in CRM .
When i researched i found that there is a BAPI
BAPI_BUSPROCESSND_CREATEMULTI which can create a sales order in CRM.
I dont know if this can create a sales order with varinat configurable material in CRM
can some one guide be how i can build a function module in CRM which generates a sales order with variant configurable material.
Regards,

Configurable Material:KMAT

dar experts,
i hjave cerated a configurable materail with mat.type KAT.
now, i want another FERT material which shall be processed n dispatched to be attached with the configurable material.
so, need i have to define my FERT material also as configurable.
during batch search, only those materils should be picked up with the req. object dependancy.
Rishi

thanks for the mail.
after i create the FERT so in MRP3 view plant specific conifg. has to be mantained there.
also, CU41(create configuration profile) has to be created for the configured material or the FERT.
object dependency is created via. CU01 or CU21 that too for KMAT or FERT.
plz. suggest

Creation of Sale Order for configurable material with availability check.

Hi,
We have a scenario in which the material is configurable. The configurable material (X) has few variants (Ex: X1, X2, X3, X4, X5). While booking the sale order, we use the material number (X).
Further, the material planning is done for the variants X1, X2, X3, X4, X5. The standard variants are planned for production in advance.
1.     While booking the sale order, we want the availability check of the stock (type matching to happen). What needs to be done in configuration?
2.     While booking the sale order, there is a possibility that the configuration selected will not match with any of the standard variants due to some additional requirements of the optional features, in such cases how to link the standard variants to the sale order & create requirement for additional requirements.

Umesh

Hi Umesh,
           1.Create material master for configurable material and variants in mm01.
           2.Maintain BOM for the configurable material in CS01
           3. Configur the variant configuration steps
              a. Create charecteristics T.code CT04
              b. Create values and assign classes
              c. assign the values to charecteristics
              d . Maitain dependence T.code CU01
              e.create configuration profile t.code CU41
              f.stimulate the configuration profile.
4. Do the availability check configuration through this path
IMG --> Sales and distribution > Basic functions ,> Availabilty check and Transfer of requirements.
5. Maintain the Availbility check field and MRP views in the material masters other wise you sit with PP people and do that
I hope it will help you

Create a configurable material with reference to another config material

Hi,
I want to create a configurable material with reference to another configurable material from different system.
Please tell me what data i need to check to see if that material has been created (copied manually) successfully.
Thanks.

Hi,
In case of configurable material most important thing is configuration so please check weather the configuration is copied perfectly with all characteristics or not. Similarly check the valuation class and price control is proper or not.

Configurable material with make to stock

Hi,
My scenario is like final products Distemper red 1kg, distemper red 5kg and 10kg like this.But Sales order will be Distemper red 1000kg.Based upon the availability of stock customer will get 5kg,10kg Depending upon the pack, price also differs depends upon the pack.
In RG1 register they are updating only Distemper red total stock.
If i go for variant configuration i should create distemper as variant and all finished material as normal and variant should be assigned(distemper red) in mrp 3 view.
Moreover planning also done for only distemper red while packing they will go for different quantity.
For Configurable material PIR can't be done.
So how to proceed further, what about RG1 resister it should not update all pack wise only distemper red total quantity.
Regards,
S.Suresh.

Hi,
As BNR said you need to work with Material Variants for having Variant Configuration with Make to Stock.
Pls. find the helpful details for maintaining Material Variants :
Maintaining Material Master Records for Variants
Prerequisites
A configurable material exists, for which you create a material variant. The configurable material
has all the necessary settings in the configuration profile, class assignment, dependencies, and
so on.
Procedure
1. From the material master menu, choose Material   Create general   Immediately.
Enter a material number, an industry sector, and a material type for materials kept in
stock.
You must process the following views:
Basic Data*
Sales Data*
MRP Data*
For material variants, you maintain the usual material master data, such as
availability check, strategy groups, and so on. This documentation describes the data
that you need to maintain specifically for material variants.
2. Maintain the required basic data.
Do not select Material is configurable for a material variant.
In the basic data, you can link the material variant to a configurable material. This
configuration applies to all plants. To manufacture the material variant in-house, you
must maintain the variant at plant level, so that BOMs, routings, and so on can be
determined. Cross-plant variants can be used in Purchasing, but are not supported in
Sales.
3. Maintain the sales data.
You can only use the variant in sales orders if you maintain sales data for the variant.
4. In the MRP data, enter a configurable material for configuring the variant at plant level.
5. Choose Configure variant.
You see the value assignment screen with the characteristics of the configurable
material.
Configure the variant.
6. Once you have maintained all the data, save your material variant.
Bill of Material (BOM)
To do a requirements explosion for a configured material, you must maintain the data in the
material master record and link a BOM to the configured material.
If the material of the material variant is the same as the configurable material, the link
is already there.
You can either create a BOM especially for the configured material (perhaps using the copy from
function) or allocate the configured material to the BOM for the configurable product. The second
option is the more common solution.
If you allocate the configured material to the BOM for the configurable product, the BOM for the
configurable product is interpreted and exploded according to the characteristic values assigned.
The interpretation includes the processing of selection conditions and the setting of field values in
BOM items according to the relevant actions.
Allocating a Configured Material to a BOM
To allocate the configured material to the BOM of the configurable product, proceed as follows:
1. From the bills of material menu, choose Bills of material   Material BOM   Alloc. config.
mat.   Create.
2. Enter the name of your configured material in the Material field.
You see a screen on which your configured material is shown as the first allocation.
Select the allocation and choose the All allocs for BOM function to see all the materials
allocated to this BOM.
3. Save your allocation.
Task List
To produce a configured material, you need to allocate a task list to the configurable material
once you have created the material master.
If the material of the material variant is the same as the configurable material, the link
is already there.
You can either create a task list especially for the configured material (perhaps using the copy
from function) or allocate the configured material to the task list for the configurable product in the
task list maintenance function. The second option is the more common solution. If you allocate
the configured material to the task list for the configurable product, the task list for the
configurable product is interpreted and exploded in the production order according to the
characteristic values assigned. The interpretation includes the processing of selection conditions
in the operations or activities, sub-operations, sequences of operations, and production
resources/tools (PRTs).
Allocating a Task List to a Configured Material
To allocate the configured material to the task list of the configurable material, proceed as
follows:
1. From the routings menu, choose Routings   Routing   Change.
2. Enter the number of the configurable material.
3. Choose Goto   Overview.
4. Choose Routing   Material allocation   New entries and enter the number of the
configured material you want to allocate to the task list.
5. Save your allocation.
Creating Cross-Plant Material Variants
Use
For material variants that are procured externally, you can define the assignment to a
configurable material in the basic data of the material master, because no plant-specific data
needs to be determined for these variants.
Procedure
1. In the material master menu, choose Material   Create (General)   Immediately.
Enter a material number, an industry sector, and a material type for materials kept in
stock.
Select the views that you want to process.
2. Maintain the required basic data.
Do not select Material is configurable for a material variant.
3. Under Client-specific configuration, enter the configurable material of which you are
creating a variant.
4. Choose Configure variant.
You see the value assignment screen with the characteristics of the configurable
material.
Configure the variant.
5. Once you have maintained all the data, save your material variant.
Result
The variant can be entered in a purchase order. The configuration of the variant is copied from
the material master.
Cross-plant material variants can be used in Purchasing. However, they are not
supported in Sales.
Strategies for Variants
Definition
Low Variance
This section describes how to plan products that have a practical limited number of possible
combinations of characteristics and characteristic values. Technically speaking this section
describes the use of variants to sell configurable materials.
Variants can be used to facilitate the work with configurable materials. Variants of a configurable
material are, for example, defined to prefabricate frequently required configurations and place
them in stock, which is why variants were formerly called stockable types.
For some configurable materials, it may be difficult to determine the variants of a configurable
material. To use the strategies for variants effectively you must have an estimate of future
consumption for each variant.
If the configuration is not changed during the Sales Order stage, production can occur at the
Production Before Sales Order stage. Then the customers must purchase the variants as they
are or as they were planned. The benefit is that the products can be shipped immediately to the
customers, if they are in stock.
Make to Stock Production for Variants
Variants can be planned on the finished product level using any make-to-stock strategy, such as
Planning with Final Assembly (40) or Net Requirements Planning (10)
The planning of variants with make-to-stock strategies combines the advantages of make-tostock
production (very short delivery time) with the advantages of variant configuration (one BOM
and one routing for a whole product family).
Make to Order Production for Variants
Variants can be planned on the finished product level using any make-to-order strategy, such as
Planning w/o Final Assembly (50) or Planning with a Planning Material (60)
The planning of variants with make-to-order strategies combines the advantages of make-toorder
production (planning without final assembly or cost tracking on the sales order level) with
the advantages of variant configuration (one BOM and one routing for a whole product family).
Integration
Hope this helps.

Tejas
