Hello,

How can I turn on the "Constraints" section on my CT04 screen?

Can you help me please.

Thanks

I want to do the following sample work.

Hello Nazif KARA,

Variant configuration doesn't work with 017 class type. Try to classify your document using 201 class type.

Don't forget to mark your "Project" characteristic as Restrictable.

An easy way to do it, it is creating three Preconditions and assing the preconditions directly to the values of Project characteristic:
a) Precondition Z_SECTOR_A
$self.sector = 'A'

b) Precondition Z_SECTOR_B

$self.sector = 'B'

c) Precondition Z_SECTOR_B

$self.sector = 'C'

I have checked it in my system, and it's working.

Hello Diego,

The method worked.

Thank you for your support.

Hello nkara

Constraints are not assigned to characteristics like the other dependencies you are showing. You must first have a kmat material with a configuration profile (use T-code PMEVC or CU41) then you create and assign a constraint net to the profile and create your constraints (use T-code PMEVC or CU21). If you are following the blog link you will also need to create a variant table but that is not a requirement of the constraint.

Hello Andrew,

Thanks for your reply,

I have created the variable table, but as far as I understand this method is not applicable for the 017 Document management system.

The customer selects two characteristics when uploading documents to the ECTR system.

For example;

1. Characteristic (Sector) - A, B, C

2. Characteristic (Project) - A1,A2,B1,B2,C1,C2

If I have selected "A" as the first characteristic,

I want only projects for "A" to be filtered for the second characteristic.

But it shows all projects and it's very complex.

Hello,

This process worked in SAP, but neither did ECTR.

What could be the reason for this?

Can you help me.

Thanks

Hello Nazif KARA,

I try the same example with 017 class type and it's aslo working. So, you don't need to use 201 class type if you don't want it.
