Great news for all AVC modelers and PMEVC users — SAP has enabled downloading variant tables even when they contain multi-value cells, thanks to SAP Note 3547198. This removes one of the biggest limitations in variant table handling.
🔍 What’s New? (Simplified)
đź“ĄThe variant table content is downloaded as an xlsxfile.
 📄Values contained by multi-valued entries are downloaded with a line break as a seperator.
 🔢Numeric values are converted from user setting format to internal format, e.g., 1.234,567 -> 1234.567, 300,0000E-06 ->
0.0003.
 ✨If available, wildcards in variant tables of processing mode ‘Advanced Variant Configuration’ are downloaded as blank cells.
 🖥️The characteristic values are downloaded depending on the selected display setting in PMEVC, i.e. values or descriptions. In case of display setting ‘Descriptions’, only characteristic value descriptions are downloaded as such, characteristics will still be displayed as value.
  💡 Why This Matters
Faster copying,
editing, and validating large variant tables
➜ Better performance, less manual clean-up, and improved model quality.
If you work with AVCÂ tables, implement SAP Note 3547198 and
start downloading your variant tables without restrictions. Need help optimizing your AVC setup? Reach out — happy to guide you!
