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

Issue in consumption of forecast for configurable material

Hi,
we have a issue in consumption of forecast by sales order for a configurable material.
Please find the below details for the settings maintained and the steps followed.
Please let me know how we can overcome this issue.
settings in R/3
1. Class and characterisitcs are created in R/3
2. standard material was created and class assigned
3. planning strategy used is 56
4. material, class, characteristics,ATP check, ATP customizing , sales order were integrated to APO
Settings in APO
1. CBF table, CBF profile, Consumption group were created in APO
2. Consumption group is attached to the product master
following steps were followed.
1. Forecast was created in DP for a certain characterstics ansd relaesed to SNP/PPDS
2. forcast is visible in product view
3. sales order was created in R/3
4. slaes order is visible in APO but it is not consuming the foreacast for the same set of characteristics.
Please let me know how we can overcome this..are we missing any customization ...?
Thanks
Ram

Hi Srinivas,
thanks for your response.
The forecast consumption problem was solved after correcting the entries in requirement strategy.
have one more query.
when the sales order for a configurable material is transferred from R/3 to APO, we should be able to see the values under "descriptive characteristics tab" in APO product view.(when we click on the green triangle representing the configuration).
However, we could see the values under "descriptive characteristics tab" for some of the characterisitcs and not for other characteristics.
we tried comparing the characteristics but could not figure out the reason.
any pointers / clues to come over this issue would be helpful.
thanks
Ram

Error message while creating configurable material for variant configuration.

Dear All,
I want to create configurable material for the purpose of variant configuration. When trying to create configurable material using mm 01 or mm k1, it is displaying an error message that internal number assignment is not possible for the material type configurable materials as well in using external number also. Can anyone specify the steps to be done in creating the configurable material. Thank you all.
Regards
Akula Sivaji Kumar Madhu Kiran

If you want to set these material type to another group (Which has a internal number and external number range), then you can do it.
In MMNR, Click on the Edit Group.
Then select the material type and click select element.
Then mark a tick option in another group and then press Element/Group.
Then you can see the material type will come under this group.
Now save your entry, and create a material with this material type.

Hi,
You can use variant configuration for selling the colored fabric. Use the basic fabric as raw. and maintain variant configuarations to have many variants.
Please use strategy 25. When you run MRP the planned orders will be generated and will be assigned to the sales orders. You can see it on the account assignment tab.
In material master pleasse maintain Individual collective requirement indicator to 1-individual in the MRP-4 view.
Then the stocks will be reserved to the specific sales orders.
Thanks and regards

Configurable material in scheduling agreement

When I use DS scheduling agreement with LPN as item category with configurable material, I cannot input value for configuration. But if I use normal TAN instead of LPN, I can input value for configuration.
Why?
Does SAP do not allow configurable material in scheduling agreement or quantity contract?
Thanks in advance for any suggestion.

Deat Amy,
Please check the item category settings related to configuration through VOV7 transaction.
Go to VOV7 transaction then select item category LPN then go in to the detain here you check the configuration related settings under Bill Of Material /Configuration tab.
If want you refer the standard Config.at Mat.Levl itemcategory TAC settings, same way you can do settings for your item category then try.
Note:- Not advaisable to change the standard one, so you copy the standard itemcategories do the changes,
I hope this will help you,
Regards,
Murali.

Material variant replacement in sales order for Configurable Material

HI
I am using variant configuration. In this i have created material A as configurable material and have Preconfigured Material B as its variant by assigning configurable material in MRP 3 view.
Now when i am creating Order for material A i.e. Configurable material and the characteristics values are same as that of Preconfigured material system is not replacing Configurable material with Preconfigured material.
Please help me out.
Regards,
Anand.

Even after maintaining the item category MTAC(Mills Make to order config at mat level), the configurable material is not getting replaced in the sales order (va02). It is just showing material variant exists for the configurable material.
The setting in item category for configuration is.
Config. Strategy 01(Sales Order Strategy (TAC, TAM))
Mat. Variant Action 4 (Replace configurable material (Append and change))
ATP material variant 2 (Do not substitute if not completely available)
Structure scope D (Configuration, poss. with BOM explosion)
I have maintained the stock for material variant as well to take care of ATP material varinat setting shown above.
Please suggest if missing something.

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.

How to do the Partial delivery for configurable material ?

Hi All,
I am creating a sales order for a configurable material and is trying to do the partial delivery for the same. But, after the outbound delivery the status of the sales order is shown as completed although I have done the partial delivery.
Here are the steps I followed.
1. material I used here is a configurable material.
Main settings.
a. In Basic Data tab, marked as configurable
b. Procurement type='E' in MRP 2 tab
c. Strategy group as 82 in MRP 3 view.
2. I created a sales order for quantity 10
3. Created a production order followed by goods Movement thereby increasing the stock.
4. Did the outbound delivery for quantity 5.
Now if I checked for the status of the sales order using VA02, the status for the line item as well as for the sales order was "Completed" although I had done partial delivery.
I have checked for setting in Customer master record, item category in VOV7. Everything seems to be fine.
I checked for all the information in the FORUM without any help.
Can you please help me?
Kind Regards,
Anupama

Hi,
For Info, I am creating a sales order for Item category TAC.
1. In my case, after completing the partial delivery, in the document flow for Order, the status is shown as completed.
2. In status overview for this item, delivery status indicator is set as 'Fully delivered'.
I did check in the customer master record and the field
Partial delivery per item is set to Blank( Partial delivery allowed)
3. I did run the report RIBELF20 and I am getting this error for all the sales order I created for partial delivery for configurable material.
For Normal item, the status is showing properly.
Is there any other settings I have to check?
I needed this to be working. Please help

Incompletion Log for Configurable Material

Hi,
The client wants to restrict the creation of sales order whenever a configurable material does not result in a material variant.
Is it posible to meet this requirement by standard SAP config in Incopletion Procedure or Status Profile?
Please advice.
Thanks
Sinduja

Make the item category that you are using for the Configurable Material as 'Not relevant for Pricing'
Then in your Sales order Header Incompletion procedure, add VBAK-NETWR field.
Now the order has to have a net value which is possible only if you have a material variant that would be relevant for pricing.

STO for Configurable material

Dear All,
We require to configure the STO process for a configurable material, but as per the present system configurable material production in supplying plant triggers by sales order. this resulting in non availability of material to dispatch against the STO purchase order.
Please help me to resolve this issue.
your inputs are awaited!!!
thanks & regards,
Anup

Maintain the correct MRP parameter for the material, i.e., special procurement type for stock transfer in MRP2.
So, you have set this up and it generates the stock transfer requests.
Note that the STO will have the account assignment for sales order stock.
Check following links for hints:
Re: Material xxxxx in plant xxxx is configurable and will not be costed
CK11N:Costing done for Configurable material is throwing error
Hope this can assist you.
Thanks & Regards
