BAPI Simulation to get BOM component based on Variant configuration changes

[Former Member]

Dear Experts,

I have been trying to find a FM/BAPI to create a quote in simulation mode for a configurable material.

We are using FIORI as frontend and based on the characteristic value selection we are exploding the BOM and the component is added to the quotation.

The BAPI which we used is 'BAPI_QUOTATION_CREATEFROMDATA2' by fillig the characteristic information via tables parameters:  QUOTATION_CFGS_REF,  QUOTATION_CFGS_INST,  QUOTATION_CFGS_VALUE and QUOTATION_CFGS_REFINST.

Once the quotation is commited, I can see the exploded component in the Quote. But I am trying to get the component and show it in the UI with the respective pricing and item information.

So kindly suggest if there are any simulation BAPI's which can return the component and its pricing based on the characteristic changes performed.

Thanks.

Srini Arvind,

You can use FM VC_I_GET_CONFIGURATION to get characterstic and values for a line item , but what i understand is in your case just one FM or BAPI will not work , as you want to sumulate "Create" & then Change and want it to be visible at external interface.

Try to explore CU50 which we used to simulate in SAP VC and build your custom program to take it for external interface.

Hope it may help you.

Thanks
