HI, SAPGURUS.
How to eliminate the Some charcteristics using the Another Characteristics of the same material.
My Problem is some what long.
which is described as follows.
I created one material which having CHAR PLANT,A,B,C,D,E,F. with class type 300.
The same material is processed in two diffrent PLANT and same can be sold without any process also.
and both PLANT having different process not match with each other.
Plant 1
having a charactristics A,B,C
Char A,B,C contains some Value According to requirement.
Plant 2
having a charactristics D,E,F.
Char D,E,F contains some Value According to requirement.
In first Charactrestics of that material I want to provide In which PLANT (PLANT 1 OR PLANT 2) material is process OR no process.
If I select PLANT 1 then i am able to see charctrestics A,B,C Only.
If I select PLANT 2 then i am able to see charctrestics D,E,F Only.
If i select No process then i do not have any selection in that material means i am not able to see the Char A B C D E F.
Can any body help me to solve that issue?
Thanks in ADVANCE IF ANY SAP GURU HELP ME.
Hi Parmar Jatin,
As per my understanding, i can propose u 2 different solutions.
Sol 1
Here u can create 3 different characteristics to ur material , which contains the following set of values.
1) Plant1 - values of A,B,C
2) Plant2 - Values of D, E, F
3) No plant - No values
if u enter the configurable material in the sales order, it can ask u to enter the characteristics of either plant1, plant2, no plant.
System will propose the values accordingly u maintained.
Sol 2
Here u can maintain Plant as a single characteristic at CT04 which contains multiple values like Plant 1 and plant 2 and No plant.
For Plant 1, maintain the subsequent values of only A, B, C
For Plant 2, Maintain the subsequent values of only D, E, F
For No plant, dont maintain any values...
Try this also,
Reply and let us see..

Hi,
can u just clear me that u r having char 'PLANT 1' n 'PLANT2' or only 1 char 'PLANT'
then i can go further...

kaleeswaran,
In think A,B,C,D,E,F are characteristics, not characteristic values. It's not very clear from the description but it does say:
" created one material which having CHAR PLANT,A,B,C,D,E,F. with class type 300."
Ipsit,
I am refering to one characteristic, PLANT, that has two values, PLANT1 and PLANT2
Characteristic PLANT appears first in the configuration and it is the only characteristic you can see. If you select value PLANT1, then characteristic A,B and C appear. If you select PLANT2 as a value, then characteristics D,E and F appear.
I think that that is the requirement.
cheers

Go to CT04 - Maintain Characteristics
Follow my instructions. Create an object dependency for characteristic A, B, C, D, E, F and G as I've described in my first post.
Have a look at my step by step guide as well. It includes screenshots. I'm sorry but I can't be any more detailed than that...

Hi,
U'VE 2 CREATE 2 PRE-CONDITIONS, FOLLOW IT
go to tcode CU01, give the dip name, go to basic data, choose pre-condition type, give the description, goto the dep editor, write the code:
PLANT eq PLANT1
check for error, save it.
do the same for PLANT2
i.e. PLANT eq PLANT2
check for error, save it.
now go to the char (in ur case A,B,C) individually and from the menu, extra, object dep, goto assignment--
here u give ur pre-condition dep name which u've made(to all the char A,B,C)
like that assign the 2nd pre-condition to char D,E,F
check for the result...ensure me
You create the precondition and assign it to the characteristics A,B,C,D,E,F and G. If you do that you won't be able to see characteristics A,B,C,D,E,F and G unless you enter a vlaue for PLANT.
If PLANT = PLANT1 then you should see A,B and C.
If PLANT = PLANT2 then you should see D,E and F.
That's what preconditions do. You are doing something wrong.
Are you getting an error message?
Do you see all characteristics? You need to explain what the problem is...
You are absolutley correct. It shows every char. I thought it would only show the ones that have the dependency... Sorry about that
I've done your example and it works now. I needed to change the code in the precondition. This is what it should be:
For char A,B and C
PLANT EQ 'PLANT1' AND SPECIFIED PLANT
For char D,E and F
PLANT EQ 'PLANT2' AND SPECIFIED PLANT
The use of SPECIFIED ensures that only when you select a value for PLANT, will the system display the other chars.
hope it works now.
Correct me if I'm wrong about what you want to do
You have 1 material. You've assigned 1 class. In that class you have a characteristic called PLANT and further characteristics A,B,C,D,E,F.
If you select characteristic value PLANT1 for characteristic PLANT you want to see characteristics A,B,C
If you select characteristic value PLANT2 for characteristic PLANT you want to see characteristics D,E,F
You need to use preconditions
Go to the maintenance of the characteristic A. In the Basic Data tab there is an option for Object Dependencies.
Create a new dependency. Add a description and leave the dependency type as precondition
Go to the dependency editor and enter the following code:
PLANT EQ 'PLANT1'
Save the code and set the precondition to active
Go to characteristic B and C and add the same Object dependency
Then go to characteristic D. create an Object dependency, only this time in the dependency editor the code should read:
PLANT EQ 'PLANT2'
Add the same to E and F.
With these dependencies you'll be able to see Characteristics A,B and C when you select value PLANT1 for characteristic PLANT and D, E and F when you select PLANT2.
I have a step by step guide which many people have found helpful:
