LISTING PROCEDURE B2- CLASSIFICATION CHECK

 

LISTING PROCEDURE B2

SAP provides a basic listing procedure called B2 which uses the classification check

 

The classic check involves finding the assortments that have the matching values of Characteristics corresponding to article characteristics values

 

We do all the basic master data maintenance as we normally do for Generic article and Its Variants , But listing of the article is done on the basis of Procedure B2 and what I have found is that B2 checks would work when we do the listing processes using Standard assortment module while it does not work when we try to do list Via article maintenance (MM41/42) or through Single article or mass article listing

 

It could work successfully when I adopted the following steps

 

a) Create  the Characteristic CT04 : along with Values X Y Z

 

b) maintain the characteristic profile  CLWE with above characteristic and using option 2 as relevant for variants

 

c) assign the above Profile to MC in WG22

 

d) Create the assortments - general through WSOA1 and assign the stores as Users or Customers

 

e) Create a classification group for the assortment using WB70 and Class Type as 047 and assign the Characteristic as created in step a

 

f) assign the assortment to Class using WB76 and while assigning select the permitted value of Characteristic(s)  example X , Y

 

g) create the article using the MC created an select all the values / or as relevant as applicable Characteristic values example X Y Z

 

h) create variants and do not do listing and maintain data in other screens like Purchasing , Log DC and store

 

i) Create a standard assortment module using WSO1 and assign the module to assortment using Procedure B2

 

k) finally assign the article to the assortment module in WSO2 and save

 

l) we can check the article variants of Values X and Y listed to Our assortment
