Material determination

Material determination enables the automatic substitution
of materials in sales documents during sales order
processing. For example, during the course of a sales
promotion, the system can, during sales order entry,
automatically substitute a material that has promotional
packaging. A consumer product may have a special wrapper
for, for example, the Christmas season. Using material
determination, the system substitutes the material only
during the specified period.


Product selection

Product selection uses material determination functions to
automatically propose a variety of substitute products
based on your requirements, customer requirements, and
product availability

When you enter a material in a sales order, the system
checks whether you have set up product selection for this
material. If so, it creates a list of possible
alternatives, checking each to determine current stock
availability, and whether the customer would accept it
based on the product attributes.
