Displaying Configurable Products 

Use

You can see intended configuration possibilities for configurable products in the product catalog in the R/3 System.

This function enables you to check whether configuration in the R/3 material master was successful and whether it was transferred to the Internet Pricing and Configurator (IPC). The IPC is responsible for price determination.

 

If the configurable product is a telephone, for example, you can set the broadcast technology to analog, digital or satellite. The price is adjusted in accordance with the selection.
