Managing the Option Set
To manage options and choices included in an option set, go to the information page of the option set and select the Structure tab. The Structure tab has two panes:
• The left pane shows a tree view of groups, options, and choices defined for the option set.
• The right pane shows the tabs that provide in-depth information on the item selected in the left pane. Depending on the item you select, some of the following tabs are available: Attributes, Sales Option, Design Option, Include Rules, Exclude Rules, Enable Rules, and Where Used.
* 
Conditional rules are available only to members of the Platform Structures group.
Tree View of an Option Set
The tree view of the option set provides a hierarchical representation of the groups (if they are defined), options, and choices included in the option set. You can click an option to expand it and view the associated choices.
* 
If both the Sales and Design option types are used at your site, you can filter the tree view by selecting Sales Option or Design Option from a drop-down list.
The next table lists the item types appearing in a tree view table (left pane).
