How to use a product model in a sales orderIf the customer orders a product that must be assembled to order, a product model can be used to define the product variant. Take the following steps: Step 1. Open a sales order, or create a new one in the Sales Orders (tdsls4100m000) session. Step 2. Create a new sales order line in the Sales Order Lines (tdsls4101m000) session. Step 3. Select on the sales order line the generic standard item that you want to configure. If you enter a generic item on the sales order line, the Product Configurator (tipcf5120m000) session can be started from which you can select the options and features desired by the customer. When you configure the product variant, the sales price is calculated and written to the order line. Save the product variant. You can configure product variants that contain purchased configurable items. You can use a configurable item to create a item structure that can hold a configurable purchased sub-assembly. The purchased sub-assembly is issued at the assembly line like other assembly parts. For more information on procuring purchased configurable items in Assembly Control module, refer to Step 4. If information about the sales price must be provided to the customer, the Print Sales Price Structure by Product Variant (tipcf5430m000) session can produce a report that shows the different price list lines. Step 5. Select the appropriate sales order line, and run the Generate (Project) Structure for Sales Orders (tdsls4244m000) session to generate a product variant structure for the product variant on the sales order. A product structure is created with the configured item at the top level of the product structure. If the order policy of the generic item is To Order, a project must be defined for the configured item. If the generic item is Anonymous, a project is not present. Before or after the generation of the product variant structure, print the sales order in the Print Sales Order Acknowledgements/RMAs (tdsls4401m000) session.
