Variant Configuration - TC: cu50 simulation mode,

Hi Gurus,
In Variant Configuration - TC: cu50 simulation mode, what are the activities we have to carried out in this screen.
Please explain
Regards
Venkat

Hi Venkat,
In the simulation screen , the activities/inputs you have to put are as follows-
1. In the variant configuration menu, choose Environment Configuration Simulation.
2. Enter the configurable material and a plant, and choose Configuration, then Chars.
3. Select your characteristic.
4. Display the possible entries, and select the value to which you want to assign a variant condition.
5. Choose Assign variant condition.
6. You see a dialog box in which you enter the variant key.
7. Save your assignment.
In the configuration simulation, the variant key is shown for the value, not the amount.
You can use the configuration simulation to check your configuration model. In the configuration
simulation, you can test whether you have created the objects correctly and whether your
dependencies work.
The BOM for the configuration result is selected according to the BOM application in the
configuration profile.

Chandra

Need help on variant configuration

Hi Guru,
Here we need to use variant configuration.But i am new in variant configuration.Can somebody tell me the different steps of variant configuration from PP side.I have gone through standard document. But still i need this information. The Industry in which I am going to implement this,is producing Colored, profiled sheet to provide roofing solution.The metal roofing sheet can have different profile, different colour, different thickness, different width and so on.They have nearly three thousand of different combination.
Please respond.

Hi,
Pls. find herewith Variant Configuration Procedure steps as below
VARIANT CONFIGURATION:
1.Create a Material - KMAT type with Item category (002)
2.Create Charateristics in CT04 - Zbike, where in values mention the Color of the bile like Red, Blue etc
Create another characteristics in CT04 - ZPrice, where directly go the additional data tab and maintain the table SDCOM and field VKOND (ABAP Dictionary it will ask for).
3.Assign these two characteristics to a Class in CL01 - ZBikeclass ( Type 300) in characteristics tab page.
4Then go to CU41 Configuration profile select the material and enter the description click on the class assignment ie assign Zbikclass.
5Now go back to CT04 - enter Zbike -go to values- select Red- go to extras - Other Dependencies - Select Procedure enter in front 10 write - $self.ZPrice='Red' and save.
6.Now go back go to extras - Other Dependencies - assignments and assign relationship ( by default it will come just save).
7.Now select Blue- go to extras - Other Dependencies - Editor - Select Procedure enter in front of 10 write - $self.ZPrice='Blue' and save.
8.Now go back go to extras - Other Dependencies - assignments and assign relationship ( by default it will come just save).
9.Now go to VK11 - Enter VA00 (Condition)(For Std RVA001 Pricing Procedure) - enter variant Red and Blue give the rates accordingly and create the sales order.

ATP Check for Components for Variant Configuration

Hi Gurus,
Does it exist a way to perform the ATP Check for components (in variant configuration) like in a test?
I mean, I know that when I create a SO (with the correct settings) the system will perform the ATP Check for components (Missing parts list). But is it possible to do this without trying to create the SO? Maybe a tcode as CU50 or PMEVC where I could enter the variant configuration values, then it explodes the BOM and do the ATP Check (as a simulation).
Thanks in advance.
Best regards.

Hi Christopher,
If you enable the "Component Availability" within your configuration profile (under Confign initial screen, Confign Parameters), then you will see an additional option within CU50 while configuring. By pressing this button, you can see an availability check as of the date specified on the CU50 initial screen. You can also modify the quantity on the CU50 initial screen for a more realistic simulation of a sales order (where a customer may order more than one of a product). See screenshots below:
In CU42:
In Value Assignment of CU50:
Hope this helps!

Stock Report for Variant configuration

Hi Experts,
Request your help to get the following information.
We have a material which are packed in to multiple packing modes. Inorder to ease the selection of packing mode in sales order, we are thinking of introducing variant configuration. I.e all the packed materials will be created as variants in SAP and the sales order will be created for the configurable material. When the proper characteristic is selected the material will be automatically replaced by the variant.
But the requirement is to see the stocks of all the varaints along with the configurable materials as the header. For eg. Material A is having variants A1, A2 & A3. The sales quantites are 25, 30 and 35 respectively.
In any of the standard report, can I see the sales of these along with the total sales of config mtl A as 90
Please guide.
Thanks & Regards
Prathib

Hi Prathib,
On my last project, we define material code with the same code at the beginning like you do A1 A2 A3 (for variants) and AC for example for configurable material. Then for stock report you can use MB52, in material field just write A* it will show you stock from material start with code A. But make sure you define material type and material group for selection wisely. It works for me. Now depends on how well you define your structure.

Tolerance Limits for Class Character in Variant Configuration

HI all,
We are Using Variant Configuration, for this we have linked MIC's to Class character, When The Inspection Lot is created the Lower & Upper Limit in the specification comes as the character Value.it does not takes in to consedration the tolerance key assigned to it. For E.g. Charater Dia has value 20, & in the Tolerance key for 20 +/- 0.10 is maintained, when the Inspection lot is created the Upper & lower Limit comes as 20-20 instead 19.9 - 20.1
I have gone through SAP Note 210658, the sample code provided in note is for "Material Specification" I have tried the same with minor code correction the specifications in the lot comes as desired i.e. specifications in the lot consider the tolerance key.
Our Requirment is of task list, in the same not EXIT for task list is also mentioned but no souce code is provided, when we are using the above program (Used for Material Specification) after doing the desired changes, & when we run in de-bugging mode it shows all the calculations are being done, but finally in the lot specification appear as the charater value ( 20-20) & in the inspection lot One first MIC comes it delete's all other MIC's assigned in the Plan.
Has any body worked on this requirment, please let me know how to do the same, & if any body has used EXIT_SAPLQPAP_001 (Enhancement QPAP0001.)Plese provide me with the soution if any one has worked on it.
Thanks & Regards

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,
Muhammad Ali Lozada

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.

The logic debuggeur doesn't work in simulation mode

Hello,
After a migration from OutlookSoft 4.2 to SAP BPC 7.0 SP6, the logic debuggeur in simulation mode had never work on our new environment.
I tried the logic simulation in Appshell, result : when I want see the result the answer is "No records found", when I want see the log i see a blank window and there is no error in server Manager.
I investigate on the Apps Server in the webfolders and I saw the logfile in \Webfolders\ApShell_test\Finance\PrivatePublications\BEAUMONT_F\TempFiles\DebugLogic.Log
Our configuration is :
Multi-Server :
1 - Apps Server (BPC Server) - Windows 2003 32b
1 - DB Server (SQL Server) - Windows 2003 64b
BPC version : BPC 7.0 M SP6
DB : SQL SERVER 2005 SP3 - Ent Ed. Lng : En-Us
client : Windows Xp - Excel 2003
Thanks for your help.

Isabelle,
I guess it might be a bug. please open SAP support ticket.
In the simulation mode, you log should show the records that is generated by your logic.
Thank you.

How to create Variant Configuration Material Master in SAP PP

Dear Friend's,
Pl 's guide me for How to Create Variant Configuration Material Master.
Give me step by step procedure for Creation of Variant Configuration.If some of you having screen shots for the same with one Example, that will be a very helpful to me for creating VC.
Thanks & Regards,
Sandeep N.Theurkar

Hi,
Eg: Ford car.If a sale order is raised for fiesta lxi model the system should choose red colour & for vxi blue colour respectively.
ie you need to define the characteristic and assign the values .
This characteristic need to assigned to class.
class need to be assigned to material master
1. T.code : CT04(characteristic) FORD_MODEL, Choose single value & entry required tab & give the input as 01 - fiesta_lxi & 02 - fiesta_vxi.( characteristic values)
2.Tcode: CT04, FORD_BODY( another characteristic)
Choose single value , don't click entry required.
01 - Red( characteristic values)
02- Blue
3. Create class T.code : CL02
fiesta_class
type : 300
4. OBJECT DEPENDENCY:
T.CODE : CT04
FORD_MODEL
CLICK VALUES TAB,
IN FIESTA_LXI CLICK THE 'O' meant for Obj dependency, action & extra.
Edit the dependecy,
010 $Self.ford_body = '01'. & save
Repeat the same for FIEST_VXI & instead of '01' give '02' for blue colour.
, then create a ROH as ford_body. & a KMAT material for the car. .
Then create a Super BOM with usage 3 & give component as ford_body
Then use T.code cu41 (Create config profile)
enter a profile name & class 300 & choose class assignment, choose fiest_class ,
Use T.code cu50 to check the values.
Then create a sale order.
Pl. reward if helpful.

When i run a sequence with ivi step types in simulation mode i get the error code number BFFA0015 - Types do not match.

When i run the sequence with ivi step types in simulation mode i get the error Types do not mathc. The step that generates this error is an IviScope step type and is configured as a measurement. Th weird thing is that in real mode is working perfectly. I have three measure steps and i get the error in all of them. The exact error message is:
UUT Result: Error, Error executing substep 'Post'. An exception occurred calling 'RunStep' in 'ISubstep' of 'TestStand Ivi Step Types 1.0 Type Library' An error occurred while executing the step. Component Works IVI Control Error: The IVI Read operation failed on channel '1' for logical name 'SampleScope'. Details: (1
) Types do not match. [IVI Error Code: BFFA0015] Source: TSIviStepTypes [Error Code: -30721, User-defined error code.]
Can someone tell me how to fix this problem?. It seems to me that the simulation generates a diferent type of measurement of that generated in real mode.

Update:
The simulation driver appears to be raising the error. By switching to specific driver simulation the error does not occur. This may be a problem in either the class simulation driver or the specific driver.

Monitoring 5.1 in Simulation mode

Anyone out there monitoring 5.1 surround out of a powerbook in Simulation mode? We are running DVD SP 4.0.3, and using an M-Audio usb to optical adapter to send audio to a 5.1 setup. This configuration works with playing a dvd out of the computer--we get true Dolby 5.1. But in Simulation Mode the AC3 file is PCM or stereo (although the file is 5.1). Does anyone know how to get 5.1 to play out of Simulation Mode? Thank you for your help, Jason

Thanks Mikey, when I do that, the audio sounds like a mixture between low frequency timecode and the 5.1. Sounds like underwater goop. Definitely not correct. The other option in the preferences "M-audio" outputs stereo. We have the M-audio adapter, so I would think this is the correct choice, but it is not outputting 5.1 through this. The S/PDIF option is sending 5.1 but, like I said earlier, it is unacceptable. Jason

Copy control settings for Multilevel variant configuration

Dear All,
I have the following scenario for variant configuration A quotation is created for configurable material with multilevel configurable material
with reference to this quoatation a sales order is created.
My requirement is that the quoatation must get copied to sales order as it is along with the values for subitems also.
In copy control settings there is a field at item level called
configuration :
In this if I maintain value
A: The variant is getting copied but the values for subitems is not getting copied the values for main material is in changable mode.
B: The variant is getting copied but the values for subitems is not getting copied the values for main material are not in changable mode.
C:The variant is getting copied   the values for subitems is getting copied the values for main material are in changable mode but the values for subitems are not in changable mode.
My requiremnt is that
The variant must get copied
the values for subitems must get copied
the main material vlaues must be in changable mode
the subitems vlaues must be in changable mode
How can I fullfill this requiremnt, has any one of you come across this scenario, Pleae provide with solution it is urgent
Informative answers will be provided maximum points.

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......

Variant configuration rules verification

Hello All,
We are using variant configuration in our company and have loaded BOMs with rules. So next step is to verify if the rules are correct or not. Now one option is to use CU50 to simulate the config but that can be done one by one material and if you have several charachtericts to assign value to then it becomes very painful to get teh list of components and compare them with the correct list.
So I would like to know if this can be automated using LSMW , BAPI etc. Thanks

Hi,
You cannot use LSMW or CATT for this purpose. You only have to test each of the dependencies and know the results.
You can use CATT may be to create test cases automatically. Or you can use some other testing tools to test the rules correctly.
