    2. Use filters such as User, Date/Time, or Service to narrow down the results.
    3. Check the error details for further analysis.

    • Analyze the error codes and messages.
    • Inspect the stack trace for technical details.

⚡Advance Variant Configuration(AVC) &VCH_HL_AFL_CHECK⚡

🎯  As we know the AVC has to be installed after the S4 Hana has been installed. This can be part of your upgrade or even for new installation

🎯 It is always important to evaluate if all the Technical Pre-Requisites are completed correctly

🎯 This is completely as Technical task for validation but still it is good for the Functional consultants also to be aware of this Pre-Requisites.

🎯 SAP has provided a standard report -VCH_HL_AFL_CHECK which will help you to execute and confirm the same.

🎯 There are parameters which are more technical but the important part is you should be getting a  message -“Procedure Called Successfully” in Green Highlighted color. This confirms that the technical pre-requisites are installed correctly.

by
The creation of sales order with variant configuration characteristics will be a little tricky one.
we have to use the below  Function module(FM) –
For Creation : SD_SALESDOCUMENT_CREATE
For Changes: SD_SALESDOCUMENT_CHANGE
 
one of the advantage of using this FM is that this will support all document types like Sales order, Scheduling agreements, Customer independent Requirements.

In the following section we will see the usage of this FM to create a simple Customer Independent requirement (MD81) with the variant configuration values passed on to the same.The below are the fM structure you need to work with
