Bill of material / Configuration



4. Configuration Strategy:
o The value of this field determines the configuration strategy for the line item. That means it can understand if the correct dependencies are selected or not.
o Controls which checks and processing are run automatically or are allowed during configuration.
o The configuration strategy is a group concept which can also be used for item categories.
o You can set various fine-tune controls for each strategy, for instance whether the system is to run a check for required characteristics or for multiple selections of characteristics.


5.Material varient action
o The value of this field determines the system response when the system finds material variant for selected characteristics.
o Controls how the system reacts when it determines that an existing configuration is already used as a stockable type.
o When defining a stockable type, the system may then determine a considerably earlier delivery deadline as no separate make-to-order production is required.

6. ATP material varient
o The value of the field determines whether the system has to carry out ATP check on material variants.

7. Varient matching
o This will activate variant determination.
o This indicator determines variant configuration.

8. Manual alternative
o This indicator allows the user to choose manual alternatives for BOM items during sales order processing.
o If a multiple BOM occurs during bill of material explosion in SD, you can determine, for each item type, whether you want to select the alternative manually. In this case, you reach an alternative selection screen with specifications on the lot size range.

9. Param effectiveness
o This indicator controls that the item can be maintained with parameter effectivity.
o Parameter effectivity determines the conditions under which object changes are effective.
o By integrating with the “Engineering Change Management” cross functionality. The BOM items properties can be changed by passing certain parameters like customer number, serial number, date etc.

Service management tab



10. Repair procedure
· Repairing procedure is the procedure in which we specify stages and actions that are to be carried out for the service item.
· Set of rules according to which sub-items are created in the repair order.
· In the standard system, repair procedures are assigned to each item category which is used in repairs processing.
· The repair procedure consists of the following:
o Stages (for example, repair registration)
o Actions (for example, repair goods, send temporary replacement)
· By assigning actions to stages, you set up the rules by which the system determines what sub-items are required during a particular phase of repairs processing

Control of resource related billing and creation of quotation

Billing form:·

The value of this field specifies how the billing is to be carried out for the resource related items.

· The billing form specifies whether a flat rate or the dynamic items are invoiced individually when performing billing using a resource-related billing document.

· Following are the options:

o Fixed rate

o Costs

DIP profile:

· Name of the dynamic item processor profile (DI processor profile).

· The dynamic item processor is a tool that the system uses to summarize data (for example, line items, and totals records) into dynamic items in sales price calculation, resource-related billing, or data determination.

· Dynamic Item is a service item.

· In IMG we define DIP Profile for dynamic item and assigned it at item category level.

· The DI profile controls how the system summarizes the data into dynamic items. A DI processor profile can have different usages.
