Make to Order for Configurable Material & Error in Confirmation

Hello, PP Gurus,
I am doing one MTO for Fabric business but during the confirmation I am getting error that
SALES order Stock does not Exist as well Please inform me Costing procedure in this scenario.
*is it necessary to run MRP in this scenario?*
Please see the all Details of Business so that U can give answer properly.
One is raw fabric (Raw material) which has to passed different process to convert Colored fabric as my Finish product as well I can sale Raw fabric also.
is it possible to maintain raw fabric and Colored fabric with same mat.code?
I have configured the material as well all pricing BOM, Recipe its working properly.
How can I assign the material to Operation? I am getting GRAY field in New Assignment in change recipe mode ..
Is it possible to use Material type other than KMAT? I want to use Finish material type. If yes How?
Right now I can create Process order from the Sales order but I am facing error in confirmation that Sales Order stock does not exist than I have to transfered stock to Sales order and error get solved temporarily but I want to avoid this manual transaction to remove this error. Any configuration is required please inform.
My configuration is given below.
MRP Type : PD
BOM item Category: L Stock Item.
In dependency & Profile I have set radio Button as Single level Bom explosion.
Order Bom selection in profile.
Strategy : 25 make to order for configure material.
How can I do ? please suggest any changes
I have only 9 months of SAP experience within short time I have gain lot knowledge from this site and other reading material as well my learning Learning thirst.
thanks to all SAP gurus..
THANKS IN ADVANCE .... Definitely I will reward points even if my some questions get solved...

Bhavik dangi.

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 - Error converting plan order to production order CO6

While I am coverting planned order to production order with configurable material, I am getting the follwoing error:
You cannot make an assignment to make-to-order stock
Message no. CO684
As read in previous forum messages I am check settlement profile assigned for new order type (ZSD01) with standard sett profile (SD1) at OKO7 and set "Valid receivers" with value "1" in Order, Material, Profit.segment, Sales order and Order item.
Configurable material have item category group "0002", MRP type "PD", Lot size "EX", Strategy group "25" and "Individual requirements".
Sales order with configurable materiale have item category "TAC".
Where is the problem?
Thank you in advance

Hi,
There are some OSS Notes to address this problem..(OSS Note: 311651, 432109 etc..)
But all ae for older versions of SAP.

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

Configurable Material Problem

Hi to All,
I've the following problem:
during the material creation (via /SAPMP/BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA) I cannot ale to add Configurable Material (MRP3 view in MM02 Transaction).
I Use the FM BAPI_OBJCL_CREATE to create new classifications.
How can I create a configurable material during the material creation proocess?
Note: the fields that should be updated are MARC-STDPD (equal to configurable material) and MARA-KZKFG (equal to X).

How to Unassign a Configurable Material to Material in MRP3 View

Hello All,
Is there any way to Unassign a Configurable Material to Material in MRP3 View, the fieldl are greyed out.
We accidentally assigned a Configurable Material to Material in MRP-3 View.
Any Inputs would be of Great help.
regards,
BRN.

Guys,
Want to share what we have done further to resolve the issue,
Though SAP says this cannot be undone and recommends to archive the material and proceed completely new.....sometimes this maynot be realistically practical.....
here is what we did,
If we remove just the CUOBJ and STDPD values in MARC table, there can be inconsistencies existing in the tables and when for any reason if we want to assign the configurable material again in MRP3 view, SAP throws out a dump........
there is FM provided by SAP " CUCB_CHECK_AND_DELETE_CONF " which can used to remove all the corresponding entries in the remaining tables....following data is necessary...
ROOT_INSTANCE = CUOBJ value in MARC table.
OWNER = LeadingZeroesMaterialPlant Ex. 000000000001234560001
Note: The FM doesnot remove entries in MARC tables, hence removing CUOBJ and STDPD values in MARC still has to be done manually...

BRN

Planning with configurable material

Hello All,
We are using a Configurable material and i have a question about the configurable material. The Configurable FERT material should be a MTO and all the configured components should be MTS. I want to enter the forecast for the components in Md61 and put them in stock and the requirement from the Configurable finished good should consume the PIRs. can anyone tell me what strategies i should use at each level. Thanks in Advance.

Hello
I have tried above suggestion, but they did not work. The sub assemblies (variant components) are not being consumed by the Fert level requirement. It is creating Another new requirement, it is not consuming the PIRS for the sub assemblies. Can someone suggest me what to do here.

Supress VC in sales order for configurable material

Hi,
this might sound like a weird request but I am looking for a way to prevent variant configuration for a configurable material in a sales order.
For internal process purposes we would like to create an intermediate sales order with a custom document type and custom item categories.
When we create the document we reference 'real' sales orders which contain configurable materials.
When copying those items over to the new custom sales order type, I'd like to prevent the VC for this item in the new order.
The custom item category I set up is not marked as configurable (no configuration strategy/structure scope/etc...)
I tried to do this with custom code in copy control but it still is bringing up the VC screen which I want to prevent.
Appreciate any ideas which could help.
Thanks,
Markus

Hi Markus,
I believe whether the configuration screen should appear or not depends on whether the material is marked configurable or not in the master data. Therefore, it may not be possible to realize your requirement via the item category settings. You probably need to do some debugging to figure out where the configuration screen is called and then add some item category based check there.

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.

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,

Murali.
