Options by Product Feature and Configurable Item (tipcf1110m000)

Use this session to define one or more options for the product feature per configurable item.

These options represent the maximum domain for the relevant product feature. This maximum domain can be restricted by defining constraints. Use a self-explanatory code, because options are used as values in constraint expressions.

Note

With the text manager, you can record a detailed description for each option. This text can be called up in the Product Configurator (tipcf5120m000) session and can be printed on external (sales) documents.
