Hello,
We are currently using CRM 7.0 EHP2 connected to ECC EHP6.We are trying
to implement ERP transactions in CRM in particular ECC Quotations(Tx Type ZLZZ in ECC).
We have maintained configurable products in ECC using Variant
Configuration.
Our scenario is to use IPC Product Configuration in CRM to configure the
Product and explode BOM materials and then create quotation from CRM
directly into ECC.For this we have created Knowledge base and runtime
version of KB and have downloaded them into CRM.We have also downloaded
all the necessary pricing customization,Customer Master and Product Data into CRM.
In CRM we create an ERP quotation and enter sold to party id 231498 and
the configurable product 204288.Since this is a configurable product so i click on "Configure Product" button from the "Item Assignment block" tool bar to select the required configuration and the BOM explosion.On click of "Configure
Product" button i am getting errors "Pricing Error :Mandatory Condition
Z029 is missing" and "Error when handling over configuration data to
Configurator".
In ECC the pricing procedure for tx type does have the mandatory
condition Z029 but i do not want IPC to trigger pricing in CRM as the
pricing is coming directly from ECC through LORD API(visible in "Price Totals" assignment block) .It appears that while trying to configure the Product by clicking on " Configure Product" button , IPC is triggering Pricing for that product and hence giving the error but as i
said earlier we only want to use the Interactive product configuration
screen without triggering the pricing.
I also tried to change the XCM parameters of IPC web application by
giving hideprices = true bit it's not helping us resolve the error.
We have checked that ipc & VMC is all active through report
RSVMCRT_HEALTH_CHECK
My question to forum is that can't we use IPC(SCE engine) just for the
Product configuration without triggering the IPC pricing for configurable products for ERP
transactions in CRM(that way we will avoid the mandatory condition type error coming from IPC).SAP OSS Note 1236015 does mention about Product
Configuration but it does not talk about how to deactivate ipc pricing
while still activating Product Configuration for configurable products for ERP transactions in
CRM.Our goal is to use Product Configuration screen to configure the
Product and explode the BOM like we do in Varaint Configuration in ECC
and in this process we do not want IPC to trigger pricing as this is
already being done in ECC.Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Abhishek
