5. Under Applicability, select the applicability of the relation in the process table.
 
* You can apply a parameter to All Steps, All Operations, All Workcells, All Fixtures,All Assembly Steps, and All Rows. The applicability of a global relation is the same as the applicability of the driven parameters. For example, consider a global parameter “a” with applicability set as All Operations. If you create a relation using this global parameter, the relation is also applicable only to all the operations.
6. Modify the parameter details, if required.
To accept the relations, click OK or to start over, click Reset.
