Dear Rami AbdElFattah Mohamed,

dont know you will like the below information 

Good Part

In SAP Mill Products you can manufacture configurable materials and material variants with production orders not only with reference to sales orders but also for stock. You can also change the characteristic value assignments of a material variant in production orders.

Bad Part  (Prerequisites)

The following requirements must be fulfilled in order to manufacture configurable materials and material variants for stock.

·         Your DIMP system must be linked to a SAP Advanced Planner and Optimizer (SAP APO) system because characteristics-based planning is only possible in SAP APO.

·         The configurable material or the material variant must be contained in an active integration model.

·         The material must be managed in batches so that warehouse stocks of materials with different characteristics can be distinguished.

Hope it will help you on some way.

Thanks

Ritesh
