RE:[sap-log-sd] Variant Configuration and Header Info

DIMP is an industry solution that you would see activated when you enter probably the first activity in the IMG. "Activate Business Functions". You would not want to activate DIMP without consulting many people at your organization.

You will need to understand how to use BOM's and set explosion through configuration profile. Then you create procedures using the dependency syntax of $self, $root or $parent to copy values from the top level to characteristics at lower levels.

Subject: Variant Configuration and Header Info

Hello !
I've the following need:

In an SD document, I've a lot of configurable positions and all that positions have the characteristic "Colour" (among the others). I need to change with "one touch" the value of Colour caracteristic of all positions (i.e. if the customer changes idea).

My idea was to associate the colour values to a field of VBAK (i.e. VSNMR_V), to re-create "Colour" as a reference characteristic of VBAK-VSNMR_V, so that when I update the VSNMR_V in VA01/VA02, the value is updated in all positions.

I tried this solution, but I found 2 problems:

1) when I link a material to the values of caracteristic (by CS02), the material is correctly attached to the position only the first time, but when i start to change the VBAK-VSNMR_V value, I find the correct value in cofiguration, but the material is not attached;
This problem doesn't occur when i use normal characteristics (not reference ones).

2) Even if i solve problem 1, I think that I have to enter in each position/configuration to make the attached materials and the price changed and so the problem is present again.

What solution do you suggest ?
Kind regards.
Nello.
