Queries in Variant configuration

Dear Experts,

I have following queries in variant configuration.

1. I am aware of the variant configuration process with sale order processing. I would like to know the application of variant configuration with  Engineering configuration ie I want to simulate the configuration profile in t-code CU50 with option in configuration as Engineering and  how its application is used in PLM

2. I have created a customized material type by copying KMAT material type with indicator "Material is configurable" is active. But while creating a material code in MM01, I cannot see the "Material is configurable indicator" in Basic data 2 view and field "Configurable material" in MRP 3 view for child component material master. Please let me know which customization I need to check for this issue

I have checked enough SCN postings before posting this. Please provide your suggestion

Hi

Is CU50 working with engineering option ? What is configuration profile set up as I get error even if configuration profile is maintained.

Hi,

I think Point 1 is already answered in an earlier item. Concerning point 2: I guess that the fields are marked as 'hide' in the field selection group. Maybe you can try this:

  1. Go to the attributes of your new material type and get the value for 'Field reference'
  2. Go to 'Logistic general -> Material Master -> Field Selection -> Assign Fields to Field Selection Groups' and get the selection group for field name MARA-KZKFG
  3. On the same path go to 'Maintain Field Selection for Data Screens' and double click on the field reference from point 1.
  4. Go to the selection group from point 2
  5. The radio button in column 'Hide' should not be activated.
