Routing for configurable material

Hello PP gurs,
I want to create Routing for Configurable Material in SAP PP-PI or PP industries. How the object dependency is defined applied ?
This requirement is for Make TO Order scenario for Configurable Material.
At present I am working with resources only.
  I want to create in such away So that while creating Production order  system should ask select BOM & routing.
How can I define the Super BOM & Super Routing in Order?
Is it possible to calculate cost for this kind of requirement?
Please Give your Contribution from Whatever  the Questions above....
Thanks & Regards,
Bhavik Dangi.

Dear,
In can explain youn w/ example
Let us say you have to manufactur CAR's(matyerial no in SAP is CAR). The coonfiguration options are - Paint, and tyre
Create a char inn CT04 as piant and tyre with value as below(data type = char)
Paint - white, red, blue and black
Tyre - Redial, Normal
Create materials like White-paint,  Red-paint,  Blue-paint,  black-paint, Tyre-redial, tyre-Normal, Engine
Create a class in CL01 called CAR-CLASS , clas type 300 and assign the above Char to this class
Assign this class to Material CAR.
Create BOm with following items
Engine
White-paint
RED paint
Blue-paint, 
black-paint,
Tyre-redial,
tyre-Normal,
Create a object dependency in CU40 type - selcetion condition to selcet red-paint material when in Sales order select paint red. and like this all others.
Selection condition for red paint is as below
Paint = 'red'
Like this for all others
Paint = 'white'
Paint = 'black'
Paint = 'blue'
Tyre = 'Normal'
Tyre = 'Redial'
Assign this object dependency to BOm items
Engine
White-paint -
>Paint = 'white'
RED paint -
>Paint = 'red'
Blue-paint,  -
>Paint = 'blue'
black-paint, -
>Paint = 'black'
Tyre-redial, -
>Tyre = 'Redial'
tyre-Normal---->Tyre = 'Normal'
Now create a configuration profile
When you create a Sales order, system will pronmpt to enter the vlaues for piant and tyre
if you have selceted piant as red and tyre as normal, then the BOm will look like as below
Engine
RED paint
tyre-Normal
This is the configured BOM...what you have cretaed is supre BOM.
It is available in PP

  • Costing Run for Configurable Material

    Hi,
    When I try to run costing run CK40N for KMAT material, I am geting information "No materials selected" for the 'selection' flow-step.
    Below is the Error description.
    No materials selected
    Message no. CK277
    Diagnosis
    Due to the costing variant used, no materials could be selected for the cost estimate.
    System Response
    No materials were selected.
    Procedure
    1. First, check that the materials you want to cost exist.
    2. Then go into Customizing and check the costing variant, the reference variant, and the transfer control. If the plant changes, a suitable transfer strategy must be entered in the transfer control belonging to the reference variant.
    Thanks in Advance,
    Shiva

    hi Shiva,
      It is not possible to do the cost calculation for configurable materials in CK40N or CK11N.
      To do the product costing it is mainly required the BOM and Routing, but in case of configurable materials the BOM and Routing are not fixed(here Super BOM/Super Routing are used with valid object dependencies which may result in "n" number of material variants)
    To do the costing for configurable material you can use t code - CU50 (configuration simulation)
    Here in CU50 you can select the characteristics values which ultimately selects the valid BOM and Routing required for variant production and do the costing and check.
    Please check

  • 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.
    Regards,
    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

    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 ..

    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

    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:

  • GATP allocation check for configurable material with characteristic

    Hi APO Gurus,
    We are using configurable products and wanted to go for GATP  allocation check based on Characteristics.
    The scenario is goiven below,
    All our products are configurable materials. At the entry of sales order , the characteristic values are updated and then the sales order is checked for GATP.
    When the order come to APO-GATP for allocation check , here I want to check the allocation for configurable material.
    But the allocation quantities are given for a combination of Configurable material and its characteristics.
    How can we map such scenario?
    Do I  to create the CVC at family level that is configurable material level ?
    How the characteristic values are considered in allocation.
    Waiting for your reply.

  • Lock characteristic value for configurable material in Sales Order

    Is there a setting in SAP which can prevent user changing characteristic value for configurable material in Sales Order after production order created for this Sales Order? Currently, it can only works when first delivery create for this Sales Order.
    Thanks a lot.

    Hi,,
    in the characteristic goto additional data tab,
    you have a field called not ready for input.
    you select this when the value in this characteristic come by calculation based on the previous selection.
    that field will be greyed out.
    OR
    u can even select the no display check box,
    by selecting this u cant see the characteristic in the list,, it will give u a popup before leaving the screen.
    for this the char has to be a required field.
    OR
    if any of this is not working then may be u can try out with authorization management.
    thanks

  • Inventory maintenance for Configurable Material and their Variants.

    Hi Gurus,
    Can anybody help me as how to handle the following issues?
    1. inventory maintenance for configurable material
    2. variants stock position maintenance (should it be maintained seperately from configurable material?)
    3. what about single values and multiple values components stock position?
    Regards,
    Sada

    Hi,
    Thanks for your reply.
    my query is say for example there is a material called XXX.
    for this material the stock position is now 1000 units in warehouse. that is ok
    if the above "XXX" is a configurable material, it might be having chars (say as additional components upto 10, which may be required by customers some times and no some times).  If we maintain stock position for material XXX then what about components.  because it is not always fixed and asked by the customers.  customer may ask all components or some components. 
    Ex:  Car is material.
           A/C, Luggage carrier on the top, tool kit these are characteristcs.
    I hope you understand me.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.
