SAP AVC: The next level for your production
With the new variant "‘Advanced Variant Configurator (AVC)" in SAP S/4HANA, SAP has launched the direct successor to the LO-VC (classic variant configurator). This is a new variant engine, which combines and integrates new technologies in the back end such as SAP HANA, an optimized and more flexible processing of the configuration and modern GUI technologies with SAP FIORI. This makes it even easier to realise highly individualised production without losing the flexibility of product customisation.
The possibility of using AVC raises questions for many companies. Can existing data models continue to be used? What preparation is necessary for switching to AVC? What are the benefits of switching to AVC? We are here to help you answer these questions.

Advanced Variant Configurator in SAP S/4HANA Benefits
Modeler
The new variant configurator offers the following advantages to modelers:
The new simulation environment offers modelers a concise configuration interface with optimized options for checking consistency and analyzing the data model. Using the new inspector, for example, you quickly obtain information about the currently selected object in the configuration including attached object dependencies.
The new “Variant Configuration Overview” app contains all important information about data models for which the modeler is responsible. Quicklinks allow you to quickly access the apps for editing the objects.
Internal Sales
Internal Sales also gains new opportunities with the Advanced Variant Configurator. These include:
To be able to enter configurations in sales as quickly as possible, it is possible to define up to 10 characteristics in advance, to which you can directly assign values in the sales order without switching to the configuration interface.
Using interactive type matching, you can also display partially matching material variants including deviating characteristics in AVC. This makes it easier for Sales to find material variants and transfer them to the sales order.
The new configuration interface of AVC, which is available in the new simulation environment, is also integrated in sales documents and offers users a clearer and more modern configuration option.
