The Regulatory Submission Subject association type is linked to the different regulatory submission types by default. This link determines the availability of the Assign Subjects tab when you are creating or editing regulatory submissions. You can define specific rules for the different regulatory submission subtypes that you create. PTC recommends that you define specific rules for the different custom regulatory submission subtypes. The Subject Picker window displays only the eligible parts, places, or regulatory decisions depending on the association rule. The supported cardinality is 1:1, 1:many, many:1, or many:many.
