Defining Settings for the Configurator

Use

On the characteristic value assignment screen, you can deactivate processing of dependencies. This considerably reduces the response time when you select a value and confirm, because no dependencies are read. However, there is no check as to whether the values you assign are consistent.

When you reactivate the configurator, all dependencies are processed at once. Any inconsistencies are collected and displayed. This may make it difficult to trace the reason for an inconsistency.

Procedure

You can define these settings in the configuration profile and on the characteristic value assignment screen.

  1. In the configuration profile, choose Settings, and on the characteristic value assignment screen choose Start of the navigation path View Next navigation step Settings. End of the navigation path

  2. You see a dialog box.

  3. Choose the Configurator tab.

  4. If you do not use the default values, you can save user-specific settings.

  5. If you do not define user-specific settings, or if you delete the user-specific settings, the settings in the configuration profile apply.

  6. If the user-specific settings are different to the configuration profile settings and the current settings, you can display the settings next to each other by choosing Comparison.
