Individualization enables you to define individual conditions by changing standard conditions within defined boundaries. You define the change options in the condition set of rules .
You define the fields of a standard condition that can be changed for the validity period of an individual contract. The remaining fields remain the same as for the valid standard condition.
Individualizationof standard conditions provides greater flexibility to the customers because you can offer individual conditions based on individual agreements without losing the relationship to the standard conditions. If you must adjust a standard condition, you can make the changes for an individual contract and the individual agreements for the contract condition remain unaffected.
Individualization creates individualized conditions, which are a mixture of the fields from the standard condition and fields that are changed for an individual contract.
