Use
In this activity, you can define process variants in addition to those predefined by SAP.
A process variant is a rule for identifying points of delivery.
When you define a new process variant, you have to define the following:
1. Process variant header data
2. Field comparison rules for identification (optional)
3. Replacement rules for synonymous characters (optional)
For a two-level algorithm, a process variant is made up of two processing steps:
Processing Step Description
Search Search algorithm (search variant) used for finding points of delivery in the IS-U system according to specific criteria
Identification Identification algorithm (identification variant) used for choosing one point of delivery from a selection
You also have the option to determine the following for each processing step:
1. Addtional configuration of process variants
2. Conversion rules for individual search data fields and the identification matrix
Requirements
Before you can define a new process variant, you must implement a corresponding class:
- Check whether an existing implementation already meets the requirements of the new process variant. Note that not all of the classes provided take all of the configuration data mentioned above into account.
- If no suitable implementation already exists, implement a new class for process variants.
