During this process you connect the items in the Item file to the configurator parameters. This is imperative if the configuration is to function. Both the configurable parent items and the components must be connected to configurator parameters.
While working with the configurator item, you also connect the configurable item to the configurator bill of material and configurator bill of routing.
When the real items are connected to the parameters, several important definitions can be set up. You can:
- Define the type of configuration entry to be displayed during the sales order entry.
- Define if product costing should be done.
- Define constraints for a specific item, meaning that certain combinations of attributes and values will either be valid or invalid.
- Set up default values for values that are frequently selected during product configuration.
- Define attribute value overrides for a configurable item.
- Define if new standard items should be created automatically for the configurator item, and in that case how this should be done.
