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.
