A material CYCLE is created as a configurable material with Gen.
Item category group as 0004 and Item
category group as ERLA. Also material CYCLE is a BOM material, which has sub items.
Go to Transaction code: MM01. Do the following:
1.Basic Data 2 creen: et !"aterial is #onfigurable$ Indicator
2.%o determine item category %A# in sales order, maintain a suitable item category group such as &&&2
'."() 2 *iew: )rocurement type !+: In house )roduction$
."() ' *iew: trategy Group. $2-: "ae/to/order for configurable$ used for demo
-."()' *iew: A0ailability #hec $&2: Indi0idual (euirement$
.#lassification 0iew: Attach the 0ariant class
Go to tab classification and select the class type *ariants/'&& as shown below.
Assign the class CYCLECLASS in the assignments area.
%he class CYCLECLASS is created with the class type 300 3*ariants4 for the material cycle.
Transaction Code: CL01.
5ow maintain the characteristics as shown below in the screen shot.
14 #6#7+%6(+ 24 6%+"

5ow the characteristic CYCLETYRES was created with character format.
Transaction Code: CT04.
Go to the 0alues tab and maintain the characteristic 0alues and description as per the reuirement.
5ow the characteristic SYSTEM was created with character format.
o! Go to Transaction Code: CT04.
Go to the 0alues tab and maintain the characteristic 0alues and description as per the reuirement.
5ow the characteristic CYCLEMO"EL was created with character format.
Transaction Code: CT04.
Go to the 0alues tab and maintain the characteristic 0alues and description as per the reuirement.
5ow the characteristic CYCLE#R$CE was created with character format. %his characteristic is allowed for
multiple 0alues.
Transaction Code: CT04.
Go to the additional data tab and maintain the table name as S"COM 3which lins ales and Distribution with
*ariant configuration4 and field name as %&O".
5ow we ha0e to maintain the dependencies for the class CYCLECLASS. %he dependency CYCLE#R$CE is
created for the class. Go to dependency editor as shown below.
Transaction Code: C'01.
"aintain the dependency editor for pricing the material CYCLE based on the reuired combination.
Also we need to maintain the configuration profile for the material CYCLE.
A configuration profile CYCLE is created for the material CYCLE and set the status as released.
Go to Transaction Code: C'41.
%he necessary settings need to be maintained for the configurable material #6#7+ to eplore in a sales order.
;e ha0e to create the 0ariant conditions for the characteristics maintained in the class CYCLECLASS. %hen go
to configuration or press <= as shown below.
Transaction code: C'(0.
elect one of the characteristics and go for its 0alue and press the icon assign 0ariant condition. 7ie wise we
can maintain the 0ariants for all the char. *alues of the characteristics.
%his is the 0ariant as specified as medium range which should ha0e the condition records maintained for *A&&
and *A&1.
<inally maintain the condition records for the condition %A00 by using the transaction code: *>11.
%he below specified conditions are acti0e for the material CYCLE.
5ow let us create a sales order. As the material is a B8" material it should eplore with the sub/items and also
should gi0e us the screen to select the reuired material.
)ress enter for the 0arious characteristics of the material.
As the material CYCLE is a configurable material, we can choose 0arious options for the material as shown
below.
%he material #6#7+ is eploded with the sub/items and the net 0alue is directly calculated based on the 0ariants
maintained for condition type *A&&.
%he B8" components for material CYCLE are:
Transaction Code: CS0).
R$M* #E""LE* TYRES are the sub/items for material CYCLE.
This is the complete overview of the variant configuration for a BOM material.
