Validating the Logic for a Configurable Module
Validating the logic allows you to verify that the logical information entered for the top-level configurable module is correct.
 |
The Validate Logic action is only available when the root node of the structure is a configurable module.
|
To validate the logic for a configurable module:
1. Open the information page of the configurable module.
2. From the Actions menu, select > .
3. The Validate Logic window appears, providing information on the following:
◦ Reports if it is possible to generate at least one solution.
◦ Suggests locations for page breaks. Page breaks are necessary to separate the specification of the number of an optional subpart from specifications of parameters within the optional subpart.
◦ Report all constraints on parameter values that include the equality operator (==).
Preference for Checking Attributes
Checking whether the attributes of a configurable module are in agreement with the attributes of the standard part that is associated to the configurable module as a variant, is configurable by a preference.
If Part Attribute Validation When Attaching a Variant is set to true (or not set), the system checks the configurable module to make sure its attributes are matching with those of the standard part. If a mismatch is found, the standard part is not attached as a variant.
If Part Attribute Validation When Attaching a Variant is set to false, the attribute check is skipped, and the standard part is attached even if the attributes may not match.
