$ntroduction:
• Variant Configuration is useful if you have a large number of
combination of parts that go into a product. It means different permutations
and combinations of the parts for same material.• If you maintain a unique material code for each possible
combination of parts you require a large number of material numbers.• !sually involves "a#e to $rder %roduction %rocess
&'a#ples:• customer ordering a computer can choose different
combinations of monitor C%! #eyboard.• customer ordering a car can choose different combinations of
accessories and color.• In a business involving steel manufacturing the customer may
order steel involving different physical properties li#e tensile strength
diameter.
