We are working with a customer who is in Merchandising Distribution (they do not manufacture, they only distribute) and the requirement is to assign product characteristics during the SO and PO Creation in SAP. We tried the following options:
1. Created material (type FERT) with material class 001 and assigned characteristics - but during PO Creation -we are getting a message: Check whether the configurable product has at least one configuration profile assigned and that this configuration profile has processing mode 'Advanced Configuration'.
To this, we activated the "Configurable" check box in the Product master data.
Option 2:
2. We created material with product type KMAT and created a class with 300 - variants. Assigned the same characteristics but during the PO Creation we are getting the message: "Classic Variant Configuration is not available in S/4 HANA Cloud Edition"
Two questions:
1. Is it possible in S/4 Hana Public Cloud?
2. If yes, how can we achieve this scenario?
