Hi there, you can derive a characteristic value based on other characteristics using procedures of SAP Variant Configuration.

Refer to SAP Help for details:

• Procedures
• Inferring a Characteristic Value with Procedures (Example)

Variant Tables are useful to store input characteristics values and resulting value. This way you can avoid maintaining the procedure itself if you need to add another set of input values or change resulting values.

If your determination procedure is complex you can program it with your own function module using User-Defined Functions

This functionality is very powerful and you can define value determination schema any way you need.
