🚀 PMEVC: Download Variant Tables with Multi-Value Cells!

by

Loading

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)

📥The 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 AVC 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!

📢MRP Live and Low Level Code :

📢MRP Live and Low Level Code :

⚡In SAP Materials may appear in several products and in several production levels of a product.

⚡The low-level code represents the lowest level of usage of a material within all product structures.

⚡Key Points on Low Level Code:

📍Purpose: The low-level code ensures materials are planned in the correct order, respecting dependencies.

📍MRP Run: During MRP runs, materials are planned starting from the lowest level code to the highest.

📍Hierarchy: Lower-level codes (higher numbers) indicate materials used in higher-level assemblies or subassemblies.

📍Automation: The system sets the low-level code automatically based on the BOM structure.

⚡In the SAP material master record, each material is allocated one low-level code  which is determined by the bill of material  management program and automatically updated in the MARA Table.

⚡You can also display the low-level code in the material master in the information Icon

New BOM Transaction in S4 Hana

by

There are few new BOM Transactions in S4 Hana (onPrem) as listed below

⚡ CS11H        Display BOM level by level-SAP HANA

⚡ CS12H        Display multilevel BOM – SAP HANA

⚡ CS13H        Display Summarized BOM – SAP HANA

These Transactions use the CS_BOM_EXPL_MAT_V2_HANA and not the classical Function module. SAP Has done Time consumption between classical and S4 Hana and concludes When the Data set or the complexity of the BOM is more then only the Improved Performance can be noticed.

Curious about the details? Dive into the comprehensive time comparison study at https://me.sap.com/notes/0002469718

If you’ve had hands-on experience with these transactions or the function module, I would love to hear your insights! Drop a comment below and share your thoughts
