Add Choices to an Option Set
Load the com.ptc.windchill.option.model.OptionSetMemberLink object in the Windchill database using Windchill loader. In order to associate a choice to the option set, choices must exist in the system. The sequence in which the choices are added to the Option Set is used as the default display order for a given option. This is used in conjunction with the create option set loader.
