Tell me about variant configaration? 
What are the type of questions we can expect in that?

Variant configuration is used where you have a configurable material like computer (made up of components like processor, monitor, keyboard, mouse etc). These components are called as characteristics in variant config. Again this will be having values like processor can be either P4 or P3, monitor can be 15" or 17" etc.

Based on the values selected the variant pricing will happen using the condition type VA00.

Possible questions you can expect are:

- What is variant configuration?
- What is characteristic?
- What is value?
- What is class?
- What is configuration profile?
- What is dependency and what are the types?
- What is a variant table?
- And the transaction codes for the above.           *-- Balaji
