Hello All,
We have multilevel VC item PP01 in configurable profile. I am trying to map variant material process. Business want if variant matches then variant should be replace with KMAT material.
I have done following setting and maintain master but didn't get success to replace variant material with KMAT material in sales order.
1) Created X finish material (FERT) as material variant. Assigned Y KMAT material in basic data 2 and MRP view 3 as variant. entered all necessary characteristics.
2) Activate variant matching in item category TAC .
3) Configurable profile setting. Process Plnd/Prod. order ,BOM explosion multilevel, Application PP01 .Setting Type matching on request and partial config as strategy.
I can see variant material in CU50 when I click on variant matching button but I am not able to get in sales order.
Variant material should be replace with VC material and then MTO scenario for variant production.
I am not sure how it will handle in case of multilevel configuration as we have configurable material as sub item when BOM explode.
Please let me know if I am missing something.
Attached screen shot for reference.
