    Variant configuration is a tool that uses a single configurable material to efficiently cover many product variants according to customer needs. It is needed because listing all possible product combinations explicitly would result in thousands of materials. VC offers real-time configuration of materials with associated prices, costs, weights and other attributes. Key elements of VC include classes, characteristics, configuration profiles, object dependencies, and variant tables. The steps in VC are allocating classes, maintaining configuration profiles, building object dependencies, simulating the model, and maintaining bills of material and prices. Changes are transferred between systems using ALE technology.

    Why is VC needed?
    You can use ONE configurable material to cover all variants It helps reacting quickly to customers requirements VC is for manufacturing complex products

    What VC can offer


    Real-time configuration of materials

    As each configuration is a unique one, VC offers the following per configuration


    Prices and costs Delivery times Weight and Volume Count of parts

    It encompasses operations in logistic general, PLM, CRM and integrates them Enables advanced internet pricing and configuration that can take B2B and B2C to an all new platform

    Preparing the Material for VC

    Agenda
    What is Variant Configuration Why is VC needed What VC can offer Preparing the Material for VC Elements of VC Steps in VC ALE

    Elements of VC
    Elements of VC are
    Class Characteristics Configuration Profile Object dependencies Variant tables Variant functions BOM single / multi-level / configurable Interface design

    Agenda
    What is Variant Configuration Why is VC needed What VC can offer Preparing the Material for VC Elements of VC Steps in VC ALE

    Steps in VC
    Allocate class to configurable material Maintain configuration profile for the material Build and allocate object dependencies Simulate and test your configuration model Maintain a BOM if needed Maintain variant prices for the material

    Steps in VC
    Allocate class to configurable material

    Classes allow you to group products together that share similar characteristics due to technical similarities

    Steps in VC
    Maintain configuration profile for the material CU41

    Steps in VC
    Build and allocate object dependencies

    Create Object Dependency CU02

    Create Constraint CU21

    Steps in VC
    Object Dependency

    Object Dependencies are a set of rules you can build to control your value assignments You can write syntax that will allow you to infer, restrict, calculate and determine values of characteristics Object dependencies use mathematical and / or Boolean expressions Types of object dependencies are:
    Preconditions qualify characteristics/values Selection Conditions select items from BOM Procedures Pricing, default/delete values, hide, table and ABAP function calls Constraints Restrict values Actions Infer, determine, calculate values

    Steps in VC
    You can simulate your VC model in CU50

    Agenda
    What is Variant Configuration Why is VC needed What VC can offer Preparing the Material for VC Elements of VC Steps in VC ALE

    ALE
    VC does not follow the SAP transport request process However, it does follow the Development Quality Production approach Changes to the VC objects are transferred using ALE technology
