Variant Configuration

[former_member1066216]

How do I make the display of possible values of a particular characteristic contingent on the value of another characteristic? I see how to make the characteristic contingent on another, but I need to subset values. I know how to limit what I can select as a valid combination, but I want to limit what is displayed on the drop down of the second characteristic.

Example: Characteristic 1 (Model) has possible values Basic, and Premium. Characteristic 2 (Color) has value Red, White, Black, Green, and Blue. Basic Model can only be red or white. Intermediate model can only be black or green, and the premium can be black or blue. So when someone selects basic, I only want to show red or white as possible values of color.

I just want to add some more idea.

No doubt we can achieve through the Pre-Condition but Constrain will be better option by making result features restrictable.

No need to create multiple Precondition to achieve the same.

Example:

OBJECTS:

X IS_A (300) CLASSNAME

CONDITION:

*Optional

RESTRICTION:

X.Characteristic 1 IN ('RED','WHITE')

IF X.Characteristic 2 = 'BASIC'

INFERENCES:

X.Characteristic 1

Hi Harry,

A possible solution is to use a Precondition, see the following SAP Help link:

Preconditions

Here, an example using Precondition, again from SAP Help:

Example: Precondition for a characteristic value

Hope this could help.

With best regards,

Flavio
