  • Variant Configuration including Bitmap

    Hi there,
    we using often small bitmaps to show the customers a hint to the selected articles. The output of SD Order  are sapscript forms and we solve this  with include of an Bitmap in sapscript article description.
    Now i try to include such a bitmap in a variant configuration.  If the user select a value 1 of a Characteristic ist should print bitmap xx, if the user select value 2 of a Characteristic ist should print bitmap yy and so on.
    Is anyone who had solve such a problem or know how could i realize this in sapscript.
    Is there a possibility to define a variable in the characteristics value or in the maintaining dependencies of  a value?
    While processing the variant configuration table in sapscript (loop at tkomcon    conf_out = tkomcon) this could be done by an if then else statement. But i don't like to process this on all variant articles. So i search for a solution to sove this in the article description/variant characteristics depending on a selected value.
    Thanks for help

    Hi
    1) A configurable material , let us say can have  1000 of variants based on the characteristics combination. Out of these 1000 variants we will be interested to stock only a few variants . This could be  say  10 or 20, and for these only, we need to create material variants. Actually this process  is similar to the creation of 10 or 20 new materials..but here  by selecting the characteristics, we are creating the materials which are known as material variants.
    Hence we will not be creating material variants for all possible combinations
    2) For the material variants that we  created, we plan, produce & stock the required quantities.During SO creation we enter the specification ie characteristics combination given by the customer. In Sale order itself we can make the system to check whether a material/stock exist for the given characteristics combination and assign the promise date suitably.

  • How do I extract the data of Variant configuration into internal tables

    Hi Experts,
    How can I extract the data of variant configuration into an internal tables while preparing the report.
    Thanks,

    Hi i´m not a "Expert.." but may I can help you:
    CUCB_GET_VALUES_FROM_INSTANCE
    Example:
    Instance =  MARA-CUOBF  or
    Instance = lips-cuobj
    Result is the data of the Variant tables.
    I need that for a simple report to evaluate customer & and his Variants......

  • Re: Variant tables usuage for variant configuration.

    Dear All.
                     I have variant configuration and I need variant tables for the dependencies. Can any body guide me how to use the variant tables.

    Hi.
    I have used them mostly as a repository of technical data unknown to sales department (guys who create and configure sales order).
    In a Packaging Industry they used variants for folding cartons and all technical data was maintained by a Techical Area in variant tables. Data was retrieved from configuration using procedures.
    Variant table data is maintained in transaction CU60. This is not a very friendly interface and can't deal with multi-user updation. This is why one year after go-live this company started to use a Z-tables and LINKED them to variant tables (CU62). Using this  you can work with same procedures but with much more easier data maintenance. I recommend to take this in account.

  • Table needed- Variant configuration details of a material in a sales order

    Dear Friends,
    I would like to display all variant configuration details/characteristics and values of a particular item in the sales order in a table. Is there any standard SAP table available to serve this purpose??
    Ex: I would like to give the sales doc no and the item no and material. The system has to display all the variant configuration details (Characteristics and the values) for the particular item
    could you please suggest any other methods to achieve this?
    Regards,
    Kali

    HI Kali
    There is no standard SAP table available for your requirement.
    Instead use FM "VC_I_Get_Configuration", and pass your sales order and item number to fetch Variant char. value for that line item in sales order.
    This is the only solution.

  • Creation of sales order with Variant configuration info

    Hi friends,
       I am creating sales order along with Variant configuration data. We have 3 level BOM structure.
    I am using BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2 and filling in ORDER_CFGS_REF, ORDER_CFGS_INST, ORDER_CFGS_PART_OF ORDER_CFGS_VALUE, ORDER_CFGS_REFINST
    tables exactly the same way BAPISDORDER_GETDETAILEDLIST FM returns.
    Sales order is being created with no variant configuration information.(Not in the header level atleast)
      Can any one help me on this.
    Thanks

    Updating Variant Configuration data for SO item became little tricky for us in an ongoing implementation. After spending some hours investigating the correct combination of data to pass, we were able to post the document correctly. As no detailed documentation is available online for this scenario, I hope this post will help community for similar requirements. J
    For updating Variant configuration (VC) data for Sales order item, we need to populate below tables of standard FM or BAPI (e.g. SD_SALESDOCUMENT_CREATE).
    Normally the standard FM or BAPI does not return any error messages in case configuration data is not updated successfully.
    ·         SALES_SCHEDULES_IN: The required date field should be populated with appropriate value (REQ_DATE).
    ·         SALES_ITEMS_IN: Field PO_ITM_NO should be populated with appropriate value.
    ·         SALES_CFGS_REF Table:
    1.       This table should have 1 record per item.
    2.       Combination of CONFIG_ID and ROOT_ID should be unique across line items.

  • Variant configuration-- syntax error in creation of object dependencies

    In variant configuration when i try to create object dependency (tcode=cu01), after entering the dependency and also description when i enter the syntax in the source code it is giving error: error in syntax check for simple condition
    I have entered syntax as  : engine_cap in ('1000','1400','2000'), pls guide me with the solution to create object dependency

    Dear, Shakeer
    Please follow along with my very own config guide of variant config.
    1)     Create a configurable Material Using KMAT u2013Material Type. Item Category 0002 and Item Category Group 0002. Go to classification tab-here you maintain the class type 300 and assign the class, we will create this shortly. (So after creating class come back into MM02 and input the class that you create in step 2.)
    2)     Create a class in T-Code CL01. Use class type 300 for Variants. In this we assign the characteristics we will create shortly.
    3)     Create characteristics in T-Code CT04. Create your characteristic like for example, Z_Type, Z_Model, and Z_Color.
    4)     We must create a characteristic for the pricing. Example, Z_CarPrice inside this characteristic we must maintain. Table Name SDCOM, Field Name VKOND in the additional data tab. Also, go to restrictions tab and enter the class type 300 Variants. Now in order to make this pricing work for you, you must maintain (enter) all the values from the characteristics. For example, Red, Blue, Black, Honda, Toyota, GLI, XLI, and 2.0D.
    5)     Now going back to the characteristics in CT04 change mode. Make sure Basic Data has *Multiple Selections circled. * Character Format has 26 and a check in case sensitive. Make sure in restrictions tab class type 300 Variants is present. Go back to Values and highlight the first one. Example, Red then go to Extras->Object Dependencies->Assignments You must maintain this code $self.Z_CarPrice=u2019Redu2019 in basic data make sure itu2019s released & procedure is filled in. Go back to dependency editor and paste the same code there after 000010 $self.Z_CarPrice=u2019Redu2019 and do this for each and every value. Very Important * Maintain configuration profile in T-Code CU41 for the material -> Priority 01, Variant Configuration, Class 300, status, Released 1, then click save. Note: If 2 conditions are inactive use class group A instead of B in SPRO for Condition type VA00.
    6)     Go to T-Code VK11 and enter VA00 condition type. Enter all the values maintained in the characteristics for example, Red, Blue, Black, Toyota, Etc and enter the price then click on save. Now it should work fine in VA01. Make sure you have assigned the VA00 condition type in the pricing procedure.
    Good Luck,

  • Sales Order text for Variant Configuration

    Hello
    I have researched my issue and also have asked other peers for guidance.  I feel that I am really close to getting my issue to work but I am not sure what I am missing, so I am hoping that someone can give me some advice as to what to check please.  See below for the description. 
    My issue is in reference to SD Variant Configuration and is outlined below.
    Overview
    Main Unit is a radio test set
    Test set can have an upgraded software
    Example
    Model 6015 u2013 standard test set
    Model 6015T u2013 Upgraded software test set
    Model 6015V u2013 Upgraded Software + test Set
    Requirement
    Use same Material Number using Variant Configuration for the upgrades
    Price is to default to the Upgraded price
    NOTE:
    Our materials are already established and are set up as material type Finished Goods; ERLA item category; sales order item category is a copy of TAC.   I am using a Configurable Material type KMAT, item category 0002 and linking to the FG material item category ERLA in the material master.
    I have created the Material Variant (KMAT) in MM01
    Created the characteristic in CT04
    Created Classification in MM02 for material FG
    Created Super BOM for Configurable Material in CS01 and added the upgrades as Alt Bom 2 for upgrade  and 3 for Upgrade+.  Also added the Alt BOM text
    Created Profile of configurable material in CU41
    For the Material I added the configurable material to MRP 3 screen in MM02
    Created the BOM link in CS40
    I simulate the material in CU50.  I enter my material; select the icon for configuration, I can see the characteristic Value Assignment nad see my characteristics Description.  I go to the value and use the drop down I then see the pop up of all the different values. 
    I have created Characteristic Reference VCSD_UPDATE_ARKTX with table VCSD_UPDATE and field ARKTX - no values
    I have created a characteristic Test_Choice with the 2 values one is Test Upgrade 1 and the other is Test Upgrade 2.  Both of these have the description as well.
    For Material Text:
    I have set up a reference characteristic using 30 character format (named VCSD_UPDATE_ARKTX),
    with table name VCSD_UPDATE and field name ARKTX.
    Then in the Configuration Profile(CU42) for configurable material,  added a procedure(named PR_PRODUCT_DESCRIPTION) to the dependencies which contains code that sets the description
    $self.VCSD_UPDATE_ARKTX = ''Test Upgrade 1u201D
      If $self.TEST_CHOICE = Test_Upgrade_1,
    $self.VCSD_UPDATE_ARKTX = ''Test Upgrade 2u201D
      If $self.TEST_CHOICE = Test_Upgrade_2,
    When Entering the sales order for Material Number XXXXXX, I receive a pop up that I can select which Alternate BOM (from CS02) I would like.  I select my line item and then select the configuration icon at the bottom of the sales order.  I see again my characterestics values (the same as CU50) but am unable to select the radio button.  Not sure if this part is standard.  Still no change in the sales order line item.  I have validated that I am using a copy of the standard TAC item category.  How does the text change to the correct value?  Am I missing a seeting somewhere.  Please provide any guidance with this as I have been trying to get this to work for over a month.
    Thank you for your time.  It is greatly appreciated.

    I have figured out that this will work if I go to the standard material (it is not KMAT but it is a FERT material type) and set the flag in the Material Master Basic Data 2 tab that this is a configurable material and not use KMAT material type for a super BOM.   The text changes for this scenario so it give me hope.
    This is not ideal, as I want to use the Super BOM because there are different variations (non stock items) that I need to pull through on the picking list in order to tell the end user which option needs to be loaded in the standard material.  At least I know the text can change on the sales order; but I am still struggling with the use of the super BOM and changing the sales text when there is use of a super bom as you tie that to the MRP 3 screen of the FERT material type.  I can set everything up, but the text will not change if I set up the material master this way.  Guidance is appreciated.
    Example
    Material 72433 (FERT)
    on sales order I enter 72433, my alternate BOM comes up with different Options.  Alternate BOM 1 is standard configuration;  My Alternate BOM 2 has Option 3 and 4 while alternate BOM 3 has option 5 and 6.  Alternate BOM 2 is a 6015T and Alternate BOM 3 is a 6015V.
    I want my sales order to pull through the text of 6015T or 6015V, whichever is chosen.  I want my picklist to print out the option that was selected.

  • Save variant configuration data with BAPI or FM

  • 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

  • Material Variant configuration in sales order line item from Ztable

    Hello Experts,
    we have configurable material and and creating sales order. from sales order line item if we goto configuration we can maintain variant configurations. My requirement is that when i click on configuration after selecting a line item i need to check ztable where i have material no and and relable text. if an entry exists i have to populate this relable text in one of the configuration filed. Can any one help how can i read and update configuration in sales order level and where to do this coding so that when i click on configuration the value from ztable populated in a field.
    Many thanks in advance.

    Hi Senthil,
    It is simple.
    When you create a characteristic which should have the value maintained in the Z table, go to the tab values. Here you have a push button called "Other Value check". Here you click this button and select the function module option. Now, in the window, you will have a place where you can mention the name of teh function module.
    You create a function module with the help of your developer to find out the text maintained in the Z table using teh rules you have in your mind and update that logic in the characteristic. In the earlier screen, you just have to mention the name of the function module, thats all, your work is done.
    Now when you configure, for this characteristic, the value will be automatically determined using teh function module. You have to create such characteristics as "Not ready for input" ones in additional data for which you cannot enter values manually.
    Hope this helps.

  • Custom ATP Check using Variant Configuration Data in sales order

    I have a requirement to modify the standard SAP ATP check by including the variant configuration data entered on a item.  Standard SAP does not use/include the characteristics data when doing the ATP. None of the available user exits would allow me to do this.
    The scenario is the client has a configurable product that exist in inventory as one item, base unit as IN2.  The batches that exist in inventory have the characteristics of width and length.  The order data specifies a width and a length, they need the ATP to identify the availability based on the characteristics of the batch.
    The solution was to present the user with a list of batches based on the characteristics that meet the criteria.  The user would then have the option of choosing one of the batches which would mean that the line item would include the batch #.  If the user does not want any of the batches, they could choose to select a Make to Order option, which would change the item category of the item, so that it creates a production order upon saving the order.
    The problem I am having implementing this solution is I have not been able to identify the internal table(s) that contains the characteristics data in SAPMV45A after the configuration screen is called.  If anyone knows where that information is during the sales order processing, it would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello Jean,
