Variant material cannot be configured

[Former Member]

Hi Gurus,

I basically setup 2 types of items i.e. material type HAWA and DIEN. Material type HAWA I tied Material is configured in Basic Data 2 attached a variant config characters. During sales order, the characteristics pop-up and I can enter the addtional data.

However for DIEN material, the screen cannot pop-up and when i click on the configuration button, error display Item 000020 cannot be configured Message no. V1469. Any clue what is the cause of the error?

Regards

Hello Bern

Did you set up a config profile for the Problem material and link it to a variant class ( type 300? The variant class should have the characteristics in it.

Hi Chandrasekhar,

The steps for HAWA and DIEN material types is the same i.e. already tied to class 300. Still the characteristics screen did not pop up.

Hello Bernard

What is the item category for the DIEN item in the sales order? Check that. May be it is coming up with TAN ( or equivalent) which is not configurable. Check the Item cat group in the material master, then the item cat assignment in config and change them as needed. In the standard system item cats TAC, TAM are set up for configuration. So try to lead the item cat to be determined as TAC for example. Hope this helps,
