Additional Functions:

      Save

When you have entered all of the parameters, save your settings. When you create a new variant, you must enter both values and attributes. You can save your variant only on the attribute screen. However, if you only want to change values or attributes of an existing variant, you can save the variant on the corresponding screen.

·        Changing the Screen Assignment

The attribute screen lists all of the selection screens for which the variant is defined. While it is possible for the same selection criterion to appear on more than one screen, the selection criterion itself can be a global field in the program. For this reason, it can only be set once when the selection criterion occurs for the first time.

If you want to change the screen assignment later on, select the indicator of the relevant screen number and choose This graphic is explained in the accompanying text Copy Screen Assignment.
