SAP VC - Characteristics Planning[MTS] - PIR demand against Material Variant [MTO]

1114 Views Last edit Apr 11, 2020 at 09:01 AM 2 rev

Hi Experts

In my current project there is a header created with material type KMAT based on KMAT I am creating Material variants by mapping the same in MRP3.I have done CS40 for FERT mapping ,CU02 for FERT routing mapping ,CU41 for header KMAT material.I am able to see the BOM explosion at CU50 screen.Sale order is created for material variant master.

In case sale order is placed when system find the same combo is selected similar to Material variant it will propose the Material variant and sale order will be created.

My query how does system will plan for the characteristics ahead of real time sale order if I am creating PIR, also FERT material will not show the characteristics in MD61 screen while only KMAT material will show the configuration support point which will enable me to give the colour wise , model wise forecast orders in PIR level.

Kindly guide me how does Make to Stock scenario can work with above conditions?
