Merging Option Sets
To support nested configurable products, Windchill provides the Merge Option Sets action to merge the option sets of lower-level configurable products with the option set of top-level configurable product. While merging, the order defined in the lower-level option set is retained for the choices and options. Options from the lower-level option set are placed after options from the top-level option set.

Ability to merge option sets is an advanced capability subject to a separate license entitlement.

For more information on configurable products, see Creating a Configurable Product.
Enabling the Merge Feature
To enable the feature, add the following property in the custom.site.xconf file:
<Property name="ato.optionset.merge.delegate" value="com.ptc.windchill.option.service.DefaultOptionSetMergeDelegate targetFile="codebase/wt.properties"/>
Restrictions and Limitations
• Configurable products should use only one level of nesting.
• Only local conditional rules should be defined for the option sets that are assigned to the lower-level configurable products.
• Only advanced expressions should be assigned to parts, usages, and occurrences.
