need help to work out on Variant Configuration.

[Former Member]

HI Friends

I am working out to learn Variant configuration; but dont know reason some where i am unable to move

Reasons: -

1) If we fill some data then dont know that we can move forward or not.

2) If we fill data it is not appropriate.

3) Dont know prerequisites Like MRP settings with MM module ( some how managed MM configurations; but now cant move forward at defining configurable material)

4) dont know do's and don't-s

So I request one and all If possible can any one give detail material to learn Variant configuration. Not like below; which is in brackets.

I maintained one Enterprise structure and using that looking to move forward. and like ES what else we need to maintain.

(• Create a Material - KMAT type with Item category (002)

• 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)

• Assign these two characteristics to a Class in CL01 - ZBikeclass ( Type 300) in characteristics tab page.

• Then go to CU41 Configuration profile select the material and enter the description click on the class assignment ie assign Zbikclass.

• Now 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

• Now go back go to extras - Other Dependencies - assignments and assign relationship ( by default it will come just save)

• Now select Blue- go to extras - Other Dependencies - Editor - Select Procedure enter in front of 10 write - $self.ZPrice='Blue' and save

• Now go back go to extras - Other Dependencies - assignments and assign relationship ( by default it will come just save)

• 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. )

Thank you.
