Variant Functions with an example
Hi Friends,
While doing the Variant configuration, we may came across scenarios where std. syntax of VC will not be
sufficient. For this type of scenarios, we can use Variant functions to achieve the desired functionality. Variant
functions will use Function Modules, here we have to write the code using ABAP.
OverviewVariant functions allow us to integrate the function modules with all types of object dependencies. In the
object dependencies we need to use the syntax for calling the function module as well as input and output
parameters.
Variant conditions used where standard syntax is not sufficient to map desired functionality. This may be
possible in following cases.
Complex processing of Char. values Evaluation of database tables that cannot be addressed via reference characteristics. Complex validity checks of allowed char. values. Generation of custom information messages.
Example:Using variant function to concatenate values of three characteristics into another characteristic.
Chars Values
Processor Core i7 Core i5 Core i3
Hard Disk 500 GB 750 GB 1 TB
RAM 2 GB 4 GB 6 GB
Label Above 3 char selected values should be
concatenated and displayed as label.
Creation of Variant Function:
T.Code: CU65

For creating variant function we have to provide required input and output parameters for the function module.
Give Function Name and Description Click on Characteristics

Assign required input and output characteristics and save the variant function. In the above example
PROCESSOR, HARD_DISK, RAM are input parameters.
Creating Function Module:
Note: For creating Function Modules requires developer access.
Open the variant function in change mode in CU66T.code and click on Function Module button.
Function builder initial screen will appear system will propose the function module name click on Create button.
Enter the required details and press save button.

However, the list of fields
currently only contains
the date.

Tables
Parameter Name Typing Reference Type Content
QUERY LIKE CUOV_01 Table of input parameters
and the expected output
parameters
MATCH LIKE CUOV_01 Table of output
parameters
All partial fields except
ATCIO must be filled in a
MATCH entry (especially
format ATFOR)
Structure CUOV_01comprises the following fields:
VARNAM (characteristic name) ATFOR (format of the value) ATWRT (alphanumeric characteristic value in internal format) ATFLV (numeric characteristic value) ATCIO (Indicator: input (I) or output (O) parameter)
The fields ATFOR, ATWRT, and ATFLV only have values assigned for input parameters.

Exceptions:
FAIL This exception shows that the condition represented
by the function is not fulfilled.
INTERNAL_ERROR This exception shows that a runtime error has
occurred processing the function.

Source Code :Used for writing your own logic for the function module using ABAP.
The following help functions are supported for accessing import parameters:
CUOV_GET_FUNCTION_ARGUMENT: Read characteristics from the input parameters.
CUOV_GET_FUNCTION_ARGUMENT: Transfer value of characteristics to Variant configuration.
Write the ABAP code and Save and activate the function module.
Press back button, system will display the Change Function transaction. Change the status to1 Released
and Save Function.

Call Variant Function
Write the Procedure and assign it to configuration profile of the material. Below is the procedure for this
example.
FUNCTION ZCOMP_LABEL
(PROCESSOR = $ROOT.PROCESSOR,
HARD_DISK = $ROOT.HARD_DISK,
RAM = $ROOT.RAM,
LABEL = $SELF.LABEL)
The characteristics on the left-hand side are characteristics of the function. The characteristics on the right-
hand side are characteristics of the PC.
Characteristic LABEL must be referred to with the variable $SELF, because LABEL is a characteristic of the
object currently being processed. Otherwise, values cannot be inferred. The default object $ROOT is assumed
for the other characteristics.

Testing
As soon as all values assigned to the characteristics of variant function, function module will sets the value for
LABEL.
Note:
When you call a user-defined function module, SAP Variant Configuration no longer has control of possible
error situations: the person who writes the function module can use all ABAP language elements, but has sole
responsibility for the code.
