Built-In Condition TYPE_OF

Use

You use TYPE_OF to define that the condition only applies to one object.

You use this condition if the dependency is dependent on its environment, for example, dependent on being used for a specific BOM header material.

Example Example

TYPE_OF($ROOT, (Material)(300)(NR=‘U91’))

If you use a condition like this as, for example, a selection condition for a BOM item, the item is included in the BOM explosion if the $ROOT object (header material) has material number ‘U91’.

End of the example.
