Reconfiguring a Variant Specification
You can reconfigure a variant specification by specifying different filtering criteria and providing different inputs for the parameters that you specified during the part configuration process.
* 
When reconfiguring a variant specification, the system uses the latest iteration of the configurable module only when Apply to top level object is selected; otherwise, it uses the part iteration associated with the variant specification.
To reconfigure a variant specification:
1. Go to the information page of the variant specification and click Actions > Reconfigure.
2. The Reconfigure window opens. Change the selections as needed and click Next to move to the next page.
* 
You can save the selections you made on each page and continue with the reconfiguration process by clicking the Save button.
In the Preview step, choose an appropriate action:
Go to selected Variant Specification information page—Click Finish to close the window and go to the information page of the existing variant specification you selected.
Go to selected Module Variant information page—Click Finish to close the window and go to the information page of the existing variant part you selected.
Create a new Variant Specification—Click Next to complete the modification of the variant specification and request deliverables, if needed. You can change the description of the variant specification before proceeding to the next step.
* 
It is recommended that you do not use Refresh (F5) during the configure and reconfigure process, as this can produce a processing error.
