Nomenclature for a combination of product variants and configurations In this case, the configuration ID for a standard cabinet that has a cloth front grill will be M0007&M0021. ExampleĪ BOM has four BOM lines that are divided into two configuration groups: You can define a configuration nomenclature for a bill of materials (BOM). You can select the following segments on the Product nomenclature page: Nomenclature of dimension-based configurationsįor dimension-based configurations, you can create a dedicated nomenclature for the configuration product dimension. In this case, the configuration ID for wood material that has a length of 78 will be WoodAAA78. You create a configuration nomenclature that has the following segments: ExampleĪ product configuration model has a root component that has two attributes: Attributes from subcomponents or user requirements can't be used. Only attributes that belong to the component can be used. You can select the following segments on the Product nomenclature page:Įach component in a product configuration model can have its own configuration nomenclature. Nomenclature of constraint-based configurationsįor constraint-based configurations, you can create a dedicated nomenclature for the configuration product dimension. In this case, the product variant number for a red, small, polo T-shirt will be TS1234-Red-Small-Polo. You create a product variant number nomenclature that has the following segments: Therefore, 24 product variants are possible (= 3 × 4 × 2). ExampleĪ T-shirt (TS1234) is produced in three sizes (S, M, L), four colors (Red, Green, Blue, Yellow), and two styles (Polo, V). In this case, the product variants that belong to the product master will be assigned product variant numbers and names according to the nomenclatures. You can also assign a product variant identification nomenclature directly to a product master. However, product variant name nomenclatures can't be associated with product dimension groups. All product masters that reference this product dimension group will then be assigned product variant numbers according to the nomenclature. You can select the following segments on the Product nomenclature page:Īfter you define a product variant identification number nomenclature, you can associate it with a product dimension group. Product variants are generated for product masters according to one of three configuration technologies:Įach product variant has a number and a name, and the product variant identification nomenclatures let you select the segments that will be included in each product variant number or name. Nomenclature of predefined product variants To open this page, click Product information management > Setup. You create nomenclatures for both product variant numbers and product variant names by using the Product nomenclature page. This functionality lets you quickly find a specific product variant when you create a sales order or a purchase order. These segments can include the product master number and name, product dimension IDs and names, number sequences, text constants, and attributes.

The new nomenclatures for product variant numbers and product variant names let you include segments in the identifiers for product variants. These nomenclatures can contain attributes of your choice.

Finally, you can build a nomenclature to identify configurations that are created by the constraint-based product configurator. You can also create a nomenclature for product names. The new nomenclature has a targeted format that includes the product master number, active product dimensions, and text delimiters of your choice. This article describes how you can set up a product number nomenclature to replace the fixed format.
