Example of Moving Option Sets After Migration
The following example illustrates the outcome of moving two option sets created in the Site context to two different libraries.
This example involves two Windchill 9.1 navigation filter templates NFT1 and NFT2.
NFT 1 includes:
• Color
◦ Red
◦ Green
◦ Blue
• Size
◦ Small
◦ Medium
◦ Large
NFT2 includes:
• Color
◦ Orange
◦ Purple
• Cost
◦ Cheap
◦ Expensive
After an upgrade from Windchill 9.1 to 10.0, the following option sets are created in the Site context, with member links to choice objects:
• Option set NFT1
◦ Red (Color)
◦ Green (Color)
◦ Blue (Color)
◦ Small (Size)
◦ Medium (Size)
◦ Large (Size)
• Option set NFT2
◦ Orange (Color)
◦ Purple (Color)
◦ Cheap (Cost)
◦ Expensive (Cost)
Imagine that you first move the option set NFT1 to Library1, and then you move NFT2 to Library2. The libraries will then contain the following objects:
• Library1 will contain the option set NFT1 with the following options and choices:
◦ Option Color
▪ Choice Red
▪ Choice Green
▪ Choice Blue
▪ Choice Orange
▪ Choice Purple
◦ Option Size
▪ Choice Small
▪ Choice Medium
▪ Choice Large
• Library2 will then contain the option set NFT2 with the following options and choices:
◦ Option Cost
▪ Choice Cheap
▪ Choice Expensive
Notice that the Color option and all of its choices are moved to Library1. Now if the user moved NFT2 first and then moved NFT1 second, the results would be:
• Library2 will contain the option set NFT2 with the following options and choices:
◦ Option Color
▪ Choice Red
▪ Choice Green
▪ Choice Blue
▪ Choice Orange
▪ Choice Purple
◦ Option Cost
▪ Choice Cheap
▪ Choice Expensive
• Library1 will contain the option set NFT1 with the following options and choices:
◦ Option Size
▪ Choice Small
▪ Choice Medium
▪ Choice Large
Notice that now Library2 has the Color option and all of its choices.
