SD Variant Configuration with manual entry cut length variant

Hi Expert,
I have one scenario in variant configuration where client want to put one variant value manually and according to entry price variant for example 4 M cut length should pick up automatically in variant pricing.
Please check below example.
X-Material
I have created variant one Cut length and once Coated colour.
Character Cut length with no value as customer want put manually like 4 M ,4.2 M .......etc as per requirement.
Character Powder coated with different colour value like red,blue,pink etc......
Character Price with SDCOM table
Condition class ZClass with above character....
Dependencies ZPrice with above character combination
CU50 characteristic value assignment.
I have maintain condition record for VA00 with all character value....
Now I m creating sales order with X-Material where I will get option for variant for cut legth enter manual...4 Meter
and powder coated with colour option ,here I m getting price for colour which is coming from condition record...but not getting for cut length which we have enter manually...
One more thing sales qty sales in pieces and pricing should be in meter...so when I will sales X-material in pieces then pricing should be in meter.
Please suggest as this is urgent requirement...
Thanks in advance

I m surprise no one has given any suggestion...
anyway closing this thread..
Thanks

Is it possible to use variant configuration (with a Non-SAP solution) when creating ERP sales orders in SAP CRM WebUI

Hello,
our customer plans to use a Non-SAP solution for variant configuration (Camos) in SAP ERP (ECC 6.0) and in SAP CRM 7.0 EHP1 as well.
ERP sales orders (and ERP quotations) should be created in SAP CRM (CRM WebUI).
Is it possible to use variant configuration (with an external variant configuration tool) when creating ERP sales orders and quotations in the SAP CRM WebUI or do we have to implement SAP IPC for this?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
AEV

Dear AEV,
I think LORD (lean orders) should work with variant configuration as well. In the note 1236015 there is not restriction listed. However you need lord2 activated in ECC, and ECC system should be on EHP4.

Just bought a new Airport Extreme BS. After setup my iphone4 won't find the network (not even with manual entries), but my iMac (2009) does. What is wrong?

Just bought a new Airport Extreme BS. After setup my iphone4 won't find the network (not even with manual entries), but my iMac (2009) does. What is wrong?

Well, after another call with Apple support and the engineers, no success. After spending over 20 hours trying to debug this, I give up. Apple was basically fishing for a solution with trial-and-error settings on the iphone. Then they wanted me to plug in software to log my iphone connections to the router, etc, etc., etc., at which point I decided I no longer wanted to participate in their testing process and will simply return the router.
25 hours of my life I'll never get back.
Big bummer, and frustrating for all the obvious reasons.

Implementing Variant configuration with Non-configurable assembly

Hi Gurus!
I have a scenario but don't know how to implement it.
My header material is configurable and has 3 semi-finished components under it. One of the semi-finished component contains a BOM with 2 raw materials, but this component is not configurable. I mean my model has a multi-level BOM but single a single level configuration. I want to implement an assemble-to-order manufacturing process for the header material. The component with 2 BOM items is manufactured in-house and the other semi-finished components are procured externally.
What kind of planning strategy should I use at the header level and should I maintain any special planning strategy for the non-configurable assembly?
I am new to SAP and also to variant configuration. So please give detailed explanation.
I have read the Planning strategies in the link SAP Library - Demand Management (PP-MP-DEM) but it is too confusing to me.
Best Regards,
Thileepan P

Hi Caetano Almeida
Thank you for the links. I got a few more questions after reading that.
1. In order type settlement profile which order should I check? I am creating a sales order (OR) for a configurable material in MTO strategy 25. In that case should I check "SD1 Sales Order MTO Production"? If so, am I looking at the right screen (refer screenshot below) and are the settings correct in my system?
2. As you have mentioned in the other links. Is it fine to make changes in material valuation in OMS2? Have you come across any situation in which this change has led to other inconsistencies?
Thanks and Regards,
Thileepan

Kaushal Rai
Edited by: Kaushal Rai on Feb 27, 2009 2:06 PM

Dear,
Follow these steps.
1. Create the Characteristics in CT04.
2. Create the Class in CL02. (Class type 300)
3. Assign the characteristics to the above created class.
4. Create the material (Product) in MM01 with material type KMAT.
5. Assign the Class created in Step 2 to Classification view of Material.
6. Create the configuration Profile in CU41. to the necessary setting to in it.
7. Write the dependencies (Precondition, sele, procedure) in CU01.and Create Dependency net in CU21.
8. Assign sele, procedure, Dependency net in Configuration Profile.
9. Assign Preconditons to Chracteristics or Char values in Class.
10. Check the model in CU50. whether your depencies or working file or not.
11. Create the Supr BOM and Super Routing and attach the dependences in the respective and check whether your bom components and required operations are picking or not in CU50.
12. VK11 - Enter VA00 (Condition) For Std RVA001 Pricing Procedure.

Variant configuration- with strategy 40

Hi,
We have gone variant configuration. And our planning strategy is 40 with weekly lot size.
Now the sales orders are created with different characterisitic values for same material
EX - sales order 1 - 10 pcs- size 20.
sales order2- 15 pcs - size 40.
sales order 3 - 20 pcs - size 30.
here size is a characteristic.
The sales orders generated in a week are combined (because of weekly lot size) into one planned order.and into production order.
The production order thus generated is combineinng the total quantities of different sales order.
My question is how the production departtment should how much quantity is of what size.(characteristic).
Thanks in advance
Kalyan

Hello
As a Best Practice . for VCs you should activate ND in MRP1 - material masteri.e. No Planning , and there is config in SD ( requirement class for Availability Check and Transfer of Requirements ) thru which the Production Order will be created automatically as soon as Sales Order for VC materials in created..

Hope it makes sense.
pl come back in case of further questions..

Variiant configuration with material varaint

Hi
I had creted material with material type FERT, i want to use this as configurable , i made "Material is Configurable and Material variant" in Basic data 2 view.I am using strategy 10 (MTS)
I made all the settings class, characters,configuration profile etc. Its working fine in Cu50 screen.
when i am creating Production order using co01.the cdonfiguration is not poping when i tried from header screen its just in display mode.
MY requirement is depend upon configuration characterstics BOM components/qty has to come in Production order.
How to configure this.where i have missed the settings?
Regards,
srihari.M

Dear Srihari,
If you want to create configurable material with material type FERT, you must maintain :
1. Basic data 1 : General item category 0002 configuration
2. Basic data 2 : Tick material is configurable
3. Maintain classification with class 300
4. confuration profile in cu41
5. MRP 3 : Strategy 25, not 10 (it is make to stock strategy not configurable)
6. Maintain super bom and super routing, you can use object dependency in item bom and operation to characteristic in class.
also consult with your SD team, you need to maintain delivering plant and item category group in sales distribution view, also variant pricing in class 300 that you create for configurable material.
Important note : You can not configure using variant configuration with CO01 create pro manually because in variant configuration concept the all characteristic chosen in sales order step, try run MRP, check planned order with configuration then you can create PRO by converting this planned order.
If you use material variant :
1. maintain material like other finished good, do not check configurable tick.
2. In MRP 3, link this material variant to its material configurable and define the fix characteristic with for variant.
3. You can create link for bom with CS40.
then you can create manually with CO01 for this material variant
Hopefully it clears you

Manual entry of excise duty a purchase order

Hi ,
Excise duty is calculated based on percentages which are maintained in the J1ID t code in SAP.
I want to have a condition types defined in a particular type of PO which allows for manual entry of the Excise duty .( As you all know that some times excise duty needs to be calculated based up on per Kg i.e.. quantity rather than as a fixed percentage of value.i want these conditions to capture these types of transactions)
How can i achieve this funcationality.??

Hi ,
Excise duty is calculated based on percentages which are maintained in the J1ID t code in SAP.
How can i achieve this funcationality.
You have to Define Condition type
SPRO -MM-Purchasing-Conditions-Defien Price Determine Process---Define Condition Types
In condition type you have seelct change which can be made option and choose Manual entries 'C' option for Condition Type Manual entry has priority.
This condition type you can use at the time of PO creation as a Condition type with Manual entry has priority.
The same condition type you have to define in pricing procedure also.
For this condition type you can abale to maintain manually.

$ROOT is the highest-level configurable material in a configuration.
$PARENT refers to the object immediately above $SELF in a multi-level configuration.
The variable $PARENT has no meaning for the header material, because the header material has no superior materials.
In dependencies that are allocated to BOM items, $PARENT refers to the configurable material for which the BOM was created, whereas $SELF refers to the material of the BOM item.
$SELF is the material to which the dependency is allocated.

SD Variant Configuration - characteristic value computation

Hi Everyone
Greetings from Vinod
i am creating a variant material which has 3 characteristics. out of the 3 characteristics, 2 are inputed by the user and the third characteristic needs to be populated with the difference of the 2 chatacteristic values that we have entered before. is there a standard setting that we have to maintain, or should we do a custom development on the same. the third characteristic value which is computed based on the difference of the precious two characteristic will then derive pricing of the variant material. please throw some suggestions and inputs in this discussion.

Hi,
calculating values of characteristics is done with so-called dependencies.
In a dependency you can define the rule how a value should be calculated.
You have to create a class of class type 300 and assign your characteristics to this class.
Assign the class to a material of material type "Configurable Materials".
Open the material with transaction PMEVC (Modeling Environment for Variant Configuration).
There you maintain a dependency of type procedure.
The source code may look like this for your example:
$SELF.CHARACTERISTIC_3 = CHARACTERISTICS_1 - CHARACTERISTIC_2
